NY Lawmaker Proposes Liberal States Secede to Canada Amidst Trump Deportation Threat
In response to President-elect Trump’s policies, New York State Senator Liz Krueger proposed that liberal states, including New York, secede from the U.S. and join Canada. This suggestion, previously made before the election, is coupled with a proposal to withhold billions of dollars in federal taxes as leverage against unwanted policies. While facing significant political opposition, Krueger highlights the substantial financial disparity between New York’s tax contributions and federal funding. The proposal reflects a growing sentiment among some Democrats to resist Trump’s agenda.
