California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a court response Tuesday in federal court in Los Angeles opposing the Trump administration's request for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction, characterizing the lawsuit as a political stunt that threatens to disenfranchise thousands of Californians.
