11/5/16 San Francisco Chronicle:
An organization hoping to facilitate the secession of California from the Union is holding a meet and greet on the Capitol steps in Sacramento next Wednesday, November 9, 2016, or, the day after the presidential election.
The Yes California Independence Campaign, which is based in San Diego, is aiming to qualify a citizen's initiative in 2018 to get a referendum for secession on the ballot in 2019. They'll be in Sacramento to garner support for their initiative.
"In our view," a statement on its website reads, "the United States of America represents so many things that conflict with Californian values, and our continued statehood means California will continue subsidizing the other states to our own detriment, and to the detriment of our children."
I would prefer expulsion.
I'd like to see them split it into West and East CA. Give the libs from the coast to maybe fifty miles away. Stop just past Sacatomato. Don't give them a border with Mexico, though. Make them have to use Hyway 1 for north/south travel? I'd rather just make it the big cities, but can't see how to make it work if not contiguous.
