As mayor and even now, I believe that there are things that we can do to protect us from Trump. First of all, when Trump tries to take money from our legal services, from our immigrant rights organizations, I've urged $1 billion set aside 500 million from the state, $500 million from the city so that we can replenish that money as that money is seized by the federal government. We've got to keep us alive until we get to the congressional elections. I believe we're going to win the House because of what Trump is doing, but we have to get there first and make sure no one is harmed. (01:37–01:48)
