It’s an all-hands-on-deck situation for those of us not willing to turn our country over to J.D. Vance and Elon Musk Donald Trump.
Fortunately, at least three Democratic governors have concrete plans to keep out as much darkness as they are able. I previously wrote about Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker taking proactive steps to shore up abortion rights and other laws to protect his constituents. Plus, he has publicly warned Trump, “You come for my people, you come through me.”
Now NBC News has reported on five other governors also taking proactive measures and/or vowing to protect rights and freedoms. California Gavin Newsom and New York Gov. Kathy Hochul discussed their plans with NBC. Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy have vowed to take stands against Project 2025 Trump. I guarantee you there are or will be more to come.
The plans “offer both a repeat of how leaders of liberal states pushed back against Trump during his first term, as well as a snapshot of what the resistance to him from the left will look like this time around,” NBC reported.
