On the 26th, local time, a proposal for California's independence from the United States was submitted to the Office of the Secretary of State. The "Calexit" named after "Britain's Brexit" will require people to vote to abolish the clause in the US Constitution that requires California not to be independent.

According to the latest poll results, one-third of the people in California support California's independence from the United States because they oppose US President Trump, but Trump is not mentioned in the latest independence proposal.

If this proposal can enter the referendum process and be voted through, California will take another step towards the possible referendum of "independence from the United States" in the future.

California Secretary of State Padilla said that the "California Independence Movement", which proposed the independence proposal, has been allowed to start collecting signatures of nearly 600,000 people and has started the referendum process. "We believe that there are many values conflicts between the United States and California. Our continued existence as a state in the United States is equivalent to continuing to hurt ourselves and our descendants and serving other states," the independent organization wrote in its official website. It is reported that similar California independent statehood or multi-state movements ended in failure.

The proposal named "California" also calls for denying the supreme legal status of the US Constitution. If passed, California will hold a referendum in 20 19 to decide "should California become a free and sovereign independent country?"

"Americans already hate California, and Americans vote according to their emotions," said a person in charge of the organization. "I think if we vote now, we will succeed."
