His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated at 1 p.m., Thursday, May 16\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump announced an immigration proposal on Thursday that would dramatically reshape the legal immigration system in the United States, prioritizing merit-based immigration over family ties and asylum-seekers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan \"puts jobs, wages and safety of American workers first,\" Trump said in the White House Rose Garden. \"We must implement an immigration system that will allow our citizens to prosper for generations to come.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan does not address the pressing challenge of what to do about the estimated 11 million people currently in the country illegally, one of the core issues that has animated Trump's presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speech was notably softer in tone for a president who has often used harsh language when describing immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, has been quietly working on the plan for months and briefed Republican senators on the details Tuesday. A senior administration official, who spoke to reporters Wednesday on the condition that his name not be used, said the proposal was a \"good faith effort\" intended to unify Republicans and start a discussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Right now, this is the Trump plan and we're hoping this will become the Republican plan,\" the official said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMbmQMrANic\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan, as described by the administration official, would prioritize merit-based immigration, limiting the number of people who could get green cards by seeking asylum or based on family ties. But it would keep immigration levels static, neither increasing or decreasing the number of people allowed to legally enter the U.S. each year. Here are the elements of the proposal as described to reporters:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Securing the border:\u003c/strong> Finishing the border wall\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Protecting American wages: \u003c/strong>Stemming the flow of low-wage labor\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Attract and retain the best and brightest immigrants\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Prioritize nuclear families: \u003c/strong>It would limit family members who can come to the country to children and spouses\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Import labor for critical industries\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Preserve humanitarian values:\u003c/strong> Keep asylum system, but limit it\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Democrats criticized the plan, which House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said was “dead on arrival.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to say something about the word that they use, merit,\" Pelosi said. \"It is really a condescending word. Are they saying family is without merit? Are they saying most of the people that ever came to the United States in the history of our country are without merit because they don’t have an engineering degree? Certainly we want to attract the best to our country and that includes many people from many parts of society.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement comes as the Trump administration is struggling to deal with a dramatic increase in asylum-seekers trying to enter the U.S. along the southern border, creating what many are now calling a humanitarian crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/02/15/695253043/trump-declares-national-emergency-to-help-fund-southern-border-wall\">President Trump declared a national emergency\u003c/a> to go against the wishes of Congress and shift funds to build the border wall he promised during his presidential campaign. White House aides see this as an ideal moment to try again to reshape the immigration system and enhance border security, something that requires congressional buy-in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='immigration' label='More KQED immigration coverage']Democrats are unlikely to support any immigration proposal that doesn't also address the young people who came to the U.S. as children and are now here illegally, known as Dreamers. Trump moved to eliminate the Obama-era program to give them work permits and protection from deportation, and the program is now in limbo pending court action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last time Trump and his White House proposed an immigration overhaul, it included a path to citizenship for Dreamers. While potentially more detailed, this proposal is less comprehensive than previous offers by Trump and his administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about this omission, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Thursday: \"Because it's a serious program, it's not included.

It did so by boosting government spending and bank lending.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But China’s technology exporters suffered huge sales drops of up to 40 percent, which ate into profits that pay for technology research.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tariff war is compounding the pain felt by many Chinese companies. They are already enduring stiffened resistance in the United States and Europe to Chinese acquisitions of technology through joint ventures with foreign companies or, with financing by state-run banks, outright purchases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China might now have to take the “tougher route” of developing more of its own technology, with less access to foreign partners and know-how, said Rajiv Biswas, chief Asia economist for IHS Markit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may be a slower path,” Biswas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government and companies are pouring billions of dollars into research. Huawei, the telecom equipment giant and China’s first global tech brand, spent $15 billion last year — more than Apple Inc.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of this has helped make China an emerging heavyweight in telecoms, artificial intelligence and other fields. Yet the United States, Europe, Japan and other governments complain that Beijing has done so in part by stealing technology or pressuring foreign companies to hand over trade secrets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Washington is pushing Beijing to roll back plans for a government-led creation of global competitors in robotics, electric cars, artificial intelligence and an array of emerging technologies. Beijing’s trading partners argue that such plans violate its commitments to further open its vast consumer and business markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The struggle compounds the challenges for President Xi Jinping’s government by threatening to delay or disrupt its economic plans. China’s leaders are reluctant to yield; they need higher-tech industries to keep incomes rising. Many producers of textiles, shoes and toys have already migrated to Vietnam, Cambodia and other lower-cost economies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China’s ruling Communist Party responded to an economic downturn last year by stepping up spending and lending. That effort reversed a campaign to curb reliance on debt, which had soared so high that rating agencies had downgraded China’s credit rating for government borrowing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID='news_11727438,bayareabites_126751,news_11738288' label='more on the tariff war']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Abroad, Xi has been forced to overhaul his multibillion-dollar “Belt and Road” initiative to build railways and other infrastructure. In response to complaints that Beijing is saddling some countries with too much debt, the government has written off some loans and renegotiated contracts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tariff war was sparked by years of yawning U.S. trade deficits with China and by complaints — by the Trump administration and many independent trade experts — that Beijing was engaging in predatory and illicit practices, including the theft of technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first U.S. penalties targeted high-tech Chinese goods that American officials said benefited from improper support from Beijing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Its impact spread as President Donald Trump extended tariff increases to Chinese exporters of handbags, furniture and other goods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those higher import taxes heightened the threat of job losses — a political risk for an unelected party that derives its claim to power in no small part from having managed three decades of explosive economic growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the surface at least, the impact of Friday’s U.S. tariff hike “is relatively modest,” Brian Coulton, chief economist for Fitch Ratings, said in a report.

They are already enduring stiffened resistance in the United States and Europe to Chinese acquisitions of technology through joint ventures with foreign companies or, with financing by state-run banks, outright purchases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China might now have to take the “tougher route” of developing more of its own technology, with less access to foreign partners and know-how, said Rajiv Biswas, chief Asia economist for IHS Markit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It may be a slower path,” Biswas said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government and companies are pouring billions of dollars into research. Huawei, the telecom equipment giant and China’s first global tech brand, spent $15 billion last year — more than Apple Inc.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All of this has helped make China an emerging heavyweight in telecoms, artificial intelligence and other fields. Yet the United States, Europe, Japan and other governments complain that Beijing has done so in part by stealing technology or pressuring foreign companies to hand over trade secrets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Washington is pushing Beijing to roll back plans for a government-led creation of global competitors in robotics, electric cars, artificial intelligence and an array of emerging technologies. Beijing’s trading partners argue that such plans violate its commitments to further open its vast consumer and business markets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The struggle compounds the challenges for President Xi Jinping’s government by threatening to delay or disrupt its economic plans. China’s leaders are reluctant to yield; they need higher-tech industries to keep incomes rising. Many producers of textiles, shoes and toys have already migrated to Vietnam, Cambodia and other lower-cost economies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China’s ruling Communist Party responded to an economic downturn last year by stepping up spending and lending. That effort reversed a campaign to curb reliance on debt, which had soared so high that rating agencies had downgraded China’s credit rating for government borrowing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In response to complaints that Beijing is saddling some countries with too much debt, the government has written off some loans and renegotiated contracts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The tariff war was sparked by years of yawning U.S. trade deficits with China and by complaints — by the Trump administration and many independent trade experts — that Beijing was engaging in predatory and illicit practices, including the theft of technology.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The first U.S. penalties targeted high-tech Chinese goods that American officials said benefited from improper support from Beijing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Its impact spread as President Donald Trump extended tariff increases to Chinese exporters of handbags, furniture and other goods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those higher import taxes heightened the threat of job losses — a political risk for an unelected party that derives its claim to power in no small part from having managed three decades of explosive economic growth.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On the surface at least, the impact of Friday’s U.S. tariff hike “is relatively modest,” Brian Coulton, chief economist for Fitch Ratings, said in a report.

But agents now “claim authority to search travelers’ devices for general law enforcement purposes, such as looking for potential evidence of illegal activity beyond violations of immigration and customs laws,” plaintiffs wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That claimed authority extends to enforcing ‘hundreds’ of federal laws, including tax, bankruptcy, environmental, and consumer protection laws. Defendants’ asserted purposes for conducting warrantless or suspicionless device searches also include intelligence gathering or advancing pre-existing investigations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These practices violate the Fourth Amendment’s protection against unreasonable search and seizure, the ACLU wrote. They also violate the First Amendment, attorneys said, because people traveling to the U.S. might censor themselves, knowing that a border agent might look through their phone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/legal-document/alasaad-v-mcaleenan-memorandum-support-motion-summary-judgment\">filing \u003c/a>this week in the U.S. District Court in Massachusetts, the lawyers asked the government to rule in their favor without a trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Let’s get one thing clear,” the ACLU said in a statement. “The government cannot use the pretext of the ‘border’ to make an end run around the Constitution.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government has said its searches are necessary to protect the country. The Department of Homeland Security did not respond to an Associated Press request for comment; ICE and CBP said they would not comment on pending litigation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case was filed on behalf of 11 defendants, including a limousine driver, two journalists, and a NASA engineer. Ten of the plaintiffs are U.S. citizens, and one is a lawful permanent resident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11744162,news_11743074,news_11739952 label='More Coverage of the Border']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Searches of international travelers’ electronic devices have \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/national-media-release/cbp-releases-updated-border-search-electronic-device-directive-and\">spiked \u003c/a>in recent years. According to the lawsuit, border officers searched the smartphones and laptops of more than 33,000 international travelers in 2018 — an increase of almost 400% from three years earlier. Those searches, the complaint says, violate the Fourth Amendment’s protections against unreasonable search and seizure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Border searches of electronic devices intrude deeply on the private lives of all travelers and raise unique concerns for the journalists, lawyers, doctors, and others who carry particularly sensitive information about their news sources, clients, and patients,” the attorneys wrote. They argued that the warrantless searches “turn the border into a digital dragnet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2018-Jan/CBP-Directive-3340-049A-Border-Search-of-Electronic-Media-Compliant.pdf\">Customs and Border Protection policy\u003c/a> implemented in 2018 permits two kinds of searches: basic and advanced. In a basic search, an officer looks through an electronic device manually. In an advanced search, the officer connects external equipment to the device in order to review and sometimes copy its contents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CBP policy allows basic searches without any suspicion of wrongdoing; advanced searches require a “reasonable suspicion of activity in violation of the laws enforced or administered by CBP” or a “national security concern.” U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has a similar policy permitting both basic and advanced searches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a legal filing, the agencies said their searches were “a crucial tool for detecting evidence relating to terrorism and other national security matters” and “can also reveal information about financial and commercial crimes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those searches go far beyond what the Constitution allows, the ACLU lawsuit argues. “The government cannot use the border to circumvent the Constitution,” they wrote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

According to the lawsuit, border officers searched the smartphones and laptops of more than 33,000 international travelers in 2018 — an increase of almost 400% from three years earlier. Those searches, the complaint says, violate the Fourth Amendment’s protections against unreasonable search and seizure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Border searches of electronic devices intrude deeply on the private lives of all travelers and raise unique concerns for the journalists, lawyers, doctors, and others who carry particularly sensitive information about their news sources, clients, and patients,” the attorneys wrote. They argued that the warrantless searches “turn the border into a digital dragnet.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbp.gov/sites/default/files/assets/documents/2018-Jan/CBP-Directive-3340-049A-Border-Search-of-Electronic-Media-Compliant.pdf\">Customs and Border Protection policy\u003c/a> implemented in 2018 permits two kinds of searches: basic and advanced. In a basic search, an officer looks through an electronic device manually. In an advanced search, the officer connects external equipment to the device in order to review and sometimes copy its contents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CBP policy allows basic searches without any suspicion of wrongdoing; advanced searches require a “reasonable suspicion of activity in violation of the laws enforced or administered by CBP” or a “national security concern.” U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has a similar policy permitting both basic and advanced searches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a legal filing, the agencies said their searches were “a crucial tool for detecting evidence relating to terrorism and other national security matters” and “can also reveal information about financial and commercial crimes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But those searches go far beyond what the Constitution allows, the ACLU lawsuit argues. “The government cannot use the border to circumvent the Constitution,” they wrote. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

On Tuesday, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin once again missed a deadline to turn over the president’s tax returns while awaiting guidance from the Justice Department. Meanwhile, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has rejected calls from members of her caucus to open impeachment proceedings against Trump after the redacted version of the Mueller report, which was released last week, described possible instances of obstruction of justice. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> U.S. Rep.

But SB 50 is just one of dozens of bills that are being considered to fix a statewide housing crisis. California Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland, has introduced several housing measures, including one that would require landlords to annually report evictions and rent hikes at the properties they own. Many of these new bills face strong opposition from local officials, including some mayors and city supervisors worried about gentrification and the loss of local control over zoning decisions.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Eric Filseth, Palo Alto mayor\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>“Beach Blanket Babylon”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hailed as the world’s longest-running musical revue, “Beach Blanket Babylon” has been delighting audiences for decades. The show follows Snow White as she sings, dances and encounters a zany cast of characters in a quest to find her Prince Charming. From its home in North Beach, the show has won legions of fans, including Queen Elizabeth, who caught a performance in 1983. But now, after 45 years, “Beach Blanket Babylon” will wear its final giant hat when it plays its last shows at the end of the year. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Jo Schuman Silver, producer\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shawna Ferris McNulty, cast member\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\n",

On Tuesday, Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin once again missed a deadline to turn over the president’s tax returns while awaiting guidance from the Justice Department. Meanwhile, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has rejected calls from members of her caucus to open impeachment proceedings against Trump after the redacted version of the Mueller report, which was released last week, described possible instances of obstruction of justice. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guest:\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> U.S. Rep.

But SB 50 is just one of dozens of bills that are being considered to fix a statewide housing crisis. California Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland, has introduced several housing measures, including one that would require landlords to annually report evictions and rent hikes at the properties they own. Many of these new bills face strong opposition from local officials, including some mayors and city supervisors worried about gentrification and the loss of local control over zoning decisions.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>Guests:\u003c/b>\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks, D-Oakland\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Eric Filseth, Palo Alto mayor\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>\u003cb>“Beach Blanket Babylon”\u003cbr>\n\u003c/b>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hailed as the world’s longest-running musical revue, “Beach Blanket Babylon” has been delighting audiences for decades. The show follows Snow White as she sings, dances and encounters a zany cast of characters in a quest to find her Prince Charming. From its home in North Beach, the show has won legions of fans, including Queen Elizabeth, who caught a performance in 1983. But now, after 45 years, “Beach Blanket Babylon” will wear its final giant hat when it plays its last shows at the end of the year. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

That doesn’t include California’s legal requests that the court enforce prior victories against the federal government, nor cases in which the state came to the defense of Obama-era programs that the Trump administration declined to defend (counting those brings the total to 49, the number cited by Becerra’s office).

As of now, Becerra has won 16 cases and only lost two. Twenty-six more are pending, a testament to how slowly the wheels of justice turn.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But experts say the legal battle between blue states and the Trump administration may be entering a new phase. Many of the initial challenges by Becerra and other state attorneys general have hinged on questions of regulatory process—whether a federal agency followed the rules of administrative procedure as it set about transforming U.S. immigration law or environmental regulations. But now that the Trump administration has had time to correct errors or to move on from simply delaying implementation of Obama-era rules to introducing regulations of its own, a new round of battles over the future of environmental regulation, immigration enforcement, health policy and consumer protection are set to begin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra’s unprecedented show of legal force is part of a nationwide trend. According to data collected by Paul Nolette, a political scientist at Marquette University, states have filed 71 joint lawsuits against the administration in just two years. That’s at least 10 more than all the state challenges filed against the White House during the entirety of Obama’s two-term presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats argue this is proof of the Trump administration’s disregard for the rule of law. Nolette sees it as part of a larger trend in which attorneys general have become partisan figures of increasing national importance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Prior to the Obama administration, state attorneys general “saw themselves as legal representatives of their own states,” said Nolette. “Now it’s far more about taking actions consistent with their party and what their policy priorities are.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11727216,forum_2010101869879,science_1919045\" label=\"Some of California's lawsuits\"]Constantly suing the White House has been a successful political strategy for Becerra too. Despite taking some \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/xavier-becerra-police-accountability-progressives/\">positions\u003c/a> at home that put him at odds with many progressives, California’s soft-spoken attorney general has become a regularly featured talking head on MSNBC, a figurehead of blue America’s opposition to the president. Earlier this year he was tapped to give the Spanish language rebuttal to President Trump’s state of the union speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have slammed Becerra for using the office to advance his political brand—a common line of attack from Becerra’s general election challenger, Republican Steven Bailey, last year. Alas, Becerra won by nearly 30 percentage points.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a Democrat in California, suing the Trump administration is “almost all upside,” said Nolette. “You get media attention, (and) of course, you could win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra’s office has been doing plenty of that. But as even some political allies concede, that has as much to do with the Trump administration’s rapid-fire approach to de-regulation as Becerra’s legal strategizing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra “has been very effective” in pushing back against the White House, said Gray from New York University. But “the Trump administration is just so incompetent you almost lose that story because losing on administrative procedure is such a low bar.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the 1940s, federal rulemaking has been governed by the Administrative Procedure Act, which requires agencies to be transparent about how they come up with new regulations and to offer reasonable justifications for why those new rules are necessary. Becerra and his Democratic counterparts in other states have regularly attacked the Trump administration in court for, they argue, failing to check those boxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That has been particularly true in areas of environmental policy, where both the Interior Department and the Environmental Protection Agency have much broader rulemaking authority than many other federal agencies. Just under half of all the challenges filed by California against the administration relate to environmental regulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11741459 alignright\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-1020x1617.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-1020x1617.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-160x254.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-800x1268.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-757x1200.jpg 757w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\">\u003c/a>In the last year, efforts by the Trump administration to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/28/us/politics/trump-judge-health-care.html\">weaken\u003c/a> the Affordable Care Act, place a citizenship \u003ca href=\"http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/judge-blocks-citizenship-question-on-2020-census-cites-veritable-smorgasbord-of-legal-violations\">question\u003c/a> on the 2020 Census, and overhaul a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/becerra-v-trump-california-using-courts-fight-administration/\">series\u003c/a> of environmental laws were all swatted down in court over procedural objections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some experts say that once the Trump administration deals with those procedural complaints, it’s possible that California will have a harder time finding plausible legal justifications to sue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re waiting on a couple of big ones,” said Gray. “We’re in a bit of a holding pattern right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether the administration fares better in court depends on whether their new policies are as “substantively sloppy as the procedural moves they’ve made,” said Ann Carlson, an environmental law professor at UCLA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It will also depend on the courts, which are growing ever more likely to rule in the president’s favor.

Despite taking some \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/xavier-becerra-police-accountability-progressives/\">positions\u003c/a> at home that put him at odds with many progressives, California’s soft-spoken attorney general has become a regularly featured talking head on MSNBC, a figurehead of blue America’s opposition to the president. Earlier this year he was tapped to give the Spanish language rebuttal to President Trump’s state of the union speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Republicans have slammed Becerra for using the office to advance his political brand—a common line of attack from Becerra’s general election challenger, Republican Steven Bailey, last year. Alas, Becerra won by nearly 30 percentage points.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For a Democrat in California, suing the Trump administration is “almost all upside,” said Nolette. “You get media attention, (and) of course, you could win.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra’s office has been doing plenty of that. But as even some political allies concede, that has as much to do with the Trump administration’s rapid-fire approach to de-regulation as Becerra’s legal strategizing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Becerra “has been very effective” in pushing back against the White House, said Gray from New York University. But “the Trump administration is just so incompetent you almost lose that story because losing on administrative procedure is such a low bar.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the 1940s, federal rulemaking has been governed by the Administrative Procedure Act, which requires agencies to be transparent about how they come up with new regulations and to offer reasonable justifications for why those new rules are necessary. Becerra and his Democratic counterparts in other states have regularly attacked the Trump administration in court for, they argue, failing to check those boxes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That has been particularly true in areas of environmental policy, where both the Interior Department and the Environmental Protection Agency have much broader rulemaking authority than many other federal agencies. Just under half of all the challenges filed by California against the administration relate to environmental regulation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11741459 alignright\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-1020x1617.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"713\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-1020x1617.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-160x254.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-800x1268.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114-757x1200.jpg 757w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/04/lawsuits-by-type-1-e1555628448114.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\">\u003c/a>In the last year, efforts by the Trump administration to \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/28/us/politics/trump-judge-health-care.html\">weaken\u003c/a> the Affordable Care Act, place a citizenship \u003ca href=\"http://www.abajournal.com/news/article/judge-blocks-citizenship-question-on-2020-census-cites-veritable-smorgasbord-of-legal-violations\">question\u003c/a> on the 2020 Census, and overhaul a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/becerra-v-trump-california-using-courts-fight-administration/\">series\u003c/a> of environmental laws were all swatted down in court over procedural objections.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some experts say that once the Trump administration deals with those procedural complaints, it’s possible that California will have a harder time finding plausible legal justifications to sue.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’re waiting on a couple of big ones,” said Gray. “We’re in a bit of a holding pattern right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whether the administration fares better in court depends on whether their new policies are as “substantively sloppy as the procedural moves they’ve made,” said Ann Carlson, an environmental law professor at UCLA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It will also depend on the courts, which are growing ever more likely to rule in the president’s favor. According to the conservative Heritage Foundation, the president has \u003ca href=\"https://www.heritage.org/judicialtracker\">appointed\u003c/a> 96 judges, including two Supreme Court Justices. That’s compared to 78 judicial appointments by Obama over eight years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the raft of lawsuits filed by Becerra and other state attorneys general may have already achieved their intended effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The procedural battles are significantly slowing down Trump’s regulatory assault,\" said Carlson, \"and by the time the rules gets passed we’re going to be very close to a new election.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">CALmatters.org\u003c/a> is a nonprofit, nonpartisan media venture explaining California policies and politics.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
