Great piece on the New York AG and his fight against Trump

Will This Man Take Down Donald Trump?
They’ve been squaring off for years. Now New York’s attorney general is emerging as the leader of the Trump resistance.

“We don’t know what the legal consequences are yet of a lot of these executive orders,” said Healy, the attorney general of Massachusetts and a close Schneiderman ally. “But we do know that you are going to see a federal administration that is going to be rolling back consumer protections, labor protections, environmental protections, and looking to dismantle rights that have been put in place. The way you address that is you uphold the law through the courts, and that is the job of state AGs right now.”
