If there’s a Democratic revolt against the Trump administration, California’s attorney general is arguably one of its more important architects.

Since taking the job in January, Xavier Becerra has brought dozens of legal actions against the federal government.

He has challenged the travel ban, threats to federal funding, the plan to end the “dreamer” program, changes to health care and environmental policy and, just Wednesday, the proposed border wall.

In an interview on Thursday, Mr. Becerra, 59, said he saw his role as one of safeguarding California’s ability to prosper.
