(ANTIMEDIA) After a bid to launch a California secession movement failed in
April, a more moderate ballot measure has been approved, and its backers now
have 180 days to attain nearly 600,000 signatures in order to put it up to
vote in the 2018 election.

The Yes California movement advocated full-on secession from the rest of the
country, and it gained steam after Donald Trump won the presidential
election in 2016. However, as the Sacramento Bee noted, that attempt failed
to gather the signatures needed and further floundered after it was accused
of having ties to Russia.
But as the Los Angeles Times reported this week:
“On Tuesday afternoon, Atty. Gen. Xavier Becerra’s office released an
official title and summary for the initiative, now called the ‘California
Autonomy From Federal Government’ initiative.”
The new measure that seeks to set up an advisory commission to inform
California’s governor on ways to increase independence from the federal
government. It would reportedly cost $1.25 million per year to fund “an
advisory commission to assist the governor on California’s independence
plus ‘unknown, potentially major, fiscal effects if California voters
approved changes to the state’s relationship with the United States at a
future election after the approval of this measure,’” the Los Angeles
Times reported.
With Becerra’s approval, its backers can now seek the nearly 600,000
signatures required to place the measure on the 2018 ballot.
As the outlet explained:
“The initiative wouldn’t necessarily result in California exiting the
country, but could allow the state to be a ‘fully functioning sovereign and
autonomous nation’ within the U.S.’”
According to the Attorney General’s official document on the measure, it
still appears to advocate secession as the ultimate goal — even if it doesn
’t use the term outright.“Repeals provision in California Constitution
stating California is an inseparable part of the United States,” the text
explains, noting that the governor and California congress members would be
expected “to negotiate continually greater autonomy from federal government
, up to and including agreement establishing California as a fully
independent country, provided voters agree to revise the California
Constitution.” | F**o
