California AG: We’re Suing Trump Today over Emergency Declaration, He Is Essentially Stealing Money

‘We are going to try to halt the president from violating the Constitution’

EXCERPT:

BECERRA: "Remember, Kate, the basis for standing is if there is harm. If the President is essentially stealing money that has been allocated to go to the various states for various purposes but no longer will, we are being harmed, our people are being harmed. You don’t have to reside in Texas. And by the way, on behalf of the people of Texas, we will be trying to protect their right to have their taxpayer dollars used the right way, not in an unconstitutional way. But regardless, the people who live in this country know that under the Constitution, it’s Congress who decides how to spend their taxpayer dollars, not the President. So whether or not it’s in Texas, if dollars are taken from states that have a purpose for those uses, then we are harmed."
