A lot of Becerra's job will likely consist of sticking thorns in the side of the Trump administration, like Texas over the last eight years. https://twitter.com/repbecerra/status/804368701680218113 …

8. Interesting article for you, "How Jerry Brown came to appoint Xavier Becerra attorney general"

snip//

While Brown aides began pursuing Becerra after Trump’s win on Nov. 8, putting him on the short list of top contenders, it wasn’t until this week that Becerra began talking with the governor himself, whom he did not know well.

A Brown official, speaking on background, said it was those conversations, in which Becerra was able to convey a level of smarts and political savvy reflected in his resume, that convinced Brown he was right for the job.

Though Brown could have made his decision when U.S. Sen.-elect Kamala Harris formally leaves the attorney general’s office, congressional leadership wrangling essentially meant the governor had to move more quickly. Becerra, preparing to vie for the top Democratic post on the powerful House Ways and Means Committee, would have needed to begin whipping votes from colleagues.

Brown announced his choice Thursday, citing Becerra’s experience in the state Legislature, Congress and as a deputy attorney general. “I’m confident he will be a champion for all Californians and help our state aggressively combat climate change,” Brown said.
