California Secession Group Responds to National Redistricting Tensions

The California independence movement known as CALEXIT is advancing its agenda to secede from the United States amid ongoing redistricting conflicts between Republican and Democratic states. The movement has gained renewed attention following the Texas legislature's recent approval of a congressional redistricting plan ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, with votes proceeding along party lines in both the Texas House and Senate. President Donald Trump has publicly encouraged other Republican-led states to pursue similar redistricting efforts.
