“They’re desperate. It’s embarrassing for them. They’re in the death throes of this election cycle, staring down a blue wave where they’re going to get thrashed, and they are planning for what they do after they get thrashed,” Bonta told MS NOW. www.ms.now/news/califor...

ms.now‘They’re desperate’: California AG Bonta blasts DOJ threat to election officialsCalifornia Attorney General Rob Bonta said the Trump DOJ is trying to intimidate election workers out of fear of a midterms “thrashing.”

BREAKING: The 9th Circuit has just DISMISSED Trump’s lawsuit threatening to disenfranchise 1000s of Californians right before the midterms Trump’s lawsuit bordered on the absurd & was nothing more than a reckless political stunt This meritless lawsuit has appropriately been thrown out of court

Trump’s bosses aren’t his billionaire buddies or greedy corporations They are you, me, us, & we We the people Trump is deathly afraid of how his bosses will vote So he’s trying to sow doubt & undermine the will of the people Don’t be intimated Your vote is your voice—Make sure it’s heard

Don't wait to mail your ballot! We recommend sending it by October 26 to allow extra time for delivery. Remember, Nov. 3 is the LAST day to vote, not the ONLY day. 🗳️

As we honor FAHM, we celebrate how Filipino Americans have been shaping California for generations. Leaders like Larry Itliong and Alice Peña Bulos inspired my dedication to public service and I carry their legacy with me. Mail in your ballot or drop it off at a local polling place by Nov. 3!

As long as Trump is a repeat offender, he will be a repeat loser We’ve taken him to court 100 times—a somber milestone—because that’s how many times he has broken the law and tried to hurt California & Californians And we’ll sue him 100 more times if that’s what it takes to stop his lawbreaking

I’ve filed 100 lawsuits against the Trump administration and beat them in court time after time. That’s what it takes to protect California. With your vote, I’ll keep holding Trump accountable and delivering results.

Home to 109 federally recognized tribes and the largest American Indian and Alaska Native population in the country, CA's history is Native history. As Indigenous Peoples’ Day leads us into Native American Heritage Month, we celebrate these enduring cultures while confronting historic injustices.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta and more than 20 Democratic Attorney Generals have spent the past year coordinating legal strategy and pre-drafting emergency lawsuits, ready to file the moment federal interference threatens your vote. 

Cast your vote with confidence!

AI companies have a responsibility to ensure their models don’t carry out or enable cyberattacks. If they fail to meet their moral and legal responsibilities, we will hold them accountable.

The largest worker misclassification settlement in CA's history. Proud to have secured this settlement alongside SF, SD, and LA city attorneys. Lyft profited at drivers’ expense, many from immigrant communities and communities of color. This settlement will deliver owed pay to thousands of drivers.

From the manongs and manangs who led the farm labor movement to those shaping our communities today, like my mother, Filipino Americans keep making history. Serving as your first Filipino American Attorney General fills me with pride and humility. Happy Filipino American History Month. 🇵🇭 Mabuhay!

The Trump administration continues to pursue opportunities for his Big Oil friends to profit at the cost of our environment and public health. But California is not backing down. We will continue using every legal tool necessary to protect our state. We have the facts and the law on our side.

The California Supreme Court unanimously ruled that sheriff Bianco broke the law when he seized 650,000 ballots. He must also comply with my lawful directives around his unfounded Prop 50 investigation. California’s Constitution was upheld. No county sheriff will unlawfully seize your ballot again.

More than 16 million Latinos call California home. We celebrate the rich diversity of Latino cultures and histories, and recognize the countless contributions Latino communities make to our state every day. California succeeds when our Latino communities succeed. Happy Latino Heritage Month! 🎉

We just BLOCKED Trump’s attempt to interfere with your right to vote by mail. The U.S. Supreme Court DENIED Trump’s request to revive his illegal Executive Order targeting vote-by-mail ballots. That means our injunction stands. TRUMP has been SHUT DOWN. Your vote-by-mail ballot remains protected.

Once again, the Trump Administration is putting oil and gas companies ahead of our health, our environment, and the communities that depend on federal and tribal lands. We won’t let corporate special interests profit while states, tribes, and taxpayers pay the price.

For more than half a century, the EGA has protected irreplaceable wildlife and habitats. Now, Trump is attempting to dismantle these protections, opening the door to further species decline. I’m co-leading a coalition of 21 AGs in taking him to court to protect our nation’s most vulnerable species.

Human trafficking is a profound violation of human rights that has no place in California. We will continue to dismantle sex trafficking networks by cutting off the demand and supporting survivors. When we work together, there is no limit to what we can accomplish to make California safer.

This Labor Day, we celebrate the workers whose dedication, tenacity, and passion allow California’s businesses and communities to thrive. Today and every day, I honor and fight to protect the hardworking individuals and unions who form the backbone of our nation’s strength and prosperity.

Trump is a historic president Historically unlawful Historically unconstitutional Historically un-American As CA Attorney General, I’ve stood up to Trump’s lawlessness time & time again & slapped down his illegal conduct before it can hurt CA & Californians And I’m not backing down

In the last 5 years, my team and I have seized more than 1.6 billion deadly doses of fentanyl. That’s enough to kill every single American four times over. We’re working across departments and alongside law enforcement to disrupt trafficking networks and get deadly drugs off California’s streets.

Amazon has rigged billions of ad auctions and quietly charged businesses more than $20 billion in undisclosed surcharges. Today, I joined a bipartisan coalition of AGs to take Amazon to court. We’re fighting to end these deceptive practices, recover Amazon’s ill-gotten gains, and deliver justice.

We just blocked President Trump’s illegal attempt to interfere with vote-by-mail for 14 days. And we’re not stopping there. We’ll keep defending Americans’ constitutional right to vote. Mr. President: Keep your hands off our elections.

I, alongside a bipartisan coalition of attorneys general, secured a transformative $17 billion settlement with Meta that will fundamentally change how Facebook and Instagram treat teen users — with new protections taking effect within months.

Paramount wants to play games in the court of public opinion, but we’re here to enforce the rules in the court of law. Instead of good-faith negotiations, they chose leaks, lies, delays, and threats. Until they take the allegations in our complaint seriously, the board says: GO DIRECTLY TO COURT.

California’s coastline is not for sale to enrich the President’s fossil fuel friends. No matter how many times the Trump Administration breaks the law to try to help Sable Offshore Corp. restart its oil pipeline, my office will meet them in court at every illegal turn.

Paramount has lost the plot. Its threat to leave California is nothing more than blackmail—an attempt to pressure my office into looking the other way and allowing an illegal merger to move forward. That’s not going to happen.

The Paramount–WBD merger isn't about creating better entertainment. It's about cutting costs & squeezing workers. Writers, actors, and crew will have fewer employers to work for, which means less bargaining power & lower wages. State AGs are stepping in to fight back.
