Some California residents want to secede from the state.

一些加州居民想要脱离加州。

The group issued a formal Declaration of Independence on Monday. They hope to create a 51st state called New California.

他们于周一发布了一份正式《独立宣言》,希望建立第51个州新加州。

New California’s founder believe they have a constitutional right to split from California. They believe the state as a whole is “governed by a tyranny.”

新加州的建立者认为,他们拥有脱离加州的宪法权利。在他们看来,整个加州“处于暴政的统治之下。”

“After years of over taxation, regulation, and mono party politics the State of California and many of it’s 58 Counties have become ungovernable,” the organizers said in a statement. “The nature of the State becoming ungovernable has caused a decline in essential basic services such as education, law enforcement, fire protection, transportation, housing, health care, taxation, voter rights, banking, state pension systems, prisons, state parks, water resource management, home ownership, infrastructure and many more.”

“经过多年的赋税超收、规定繁多和一党政治,加利福尼亚州58个县中的很多县已经变得难以统治,”组织者们在一份声明中说道。“加州变得难以统治造成了基本服务的衰退,例如教育、执法、消防、交通、住房、医疗、税、投票权、金融、州退休金制度、监狱、州公园、水资源管理、房屋所有权、基础设施等等。”

New California would include most of the rural parts of the state, but not most of the coastal cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco.

新加州将会包括加州大部分农村地区,不包括洛杉矶、旧金山这样的大部分沿海城市。

Some in the state under the ‘Calexit’ movement previously called for the entire state to secede from the U.S.

一些参加“脱加”运动的人士此前呼吁整个加州脱离美国。
