Washingtons attorney general sees no signs of legal battles with Trump letting up

Edmonds, WALocal News

Washington State Attorney General Nick Brown warned that President Trump's actions could lead the country toward a constitutional crisis, particularly regarding immigration-related court rulings. At a recent town hall, he stated that while he may shy away from the term "constitutional crisis," he believes the situation is dire. Since taking office in January, Brown has filed 20 lawsuits against the Trump administration, addressing issues such as birthright citizenship and immigration enforcement. His counterparts from Oregon and California also voiced concerns about public health funding cuts and federal immigration policies. Brown's office plans to argue in the 9th U.

S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the indefinite maintenance of a preliminary injunction blocking the birthright citizenship order. The ongoing litigation has resulted in court orders that have temporarily halted some of Trump's actions. Brown's commitment to legal action reflects a broader resistance to federal immigration enforcement, as he defends sanctuary policies in Washington. As the legal battles continue, the trio of attorneys general remains focused on empowering their states against federal overreach.
