WASHINGTON (AP) — As California’s newest senator, Democrat Adam Schiff says he’s not going to shy away from familiar territory — opposing Donald Trump when he feels it is necessary.

Schiff is filling the seat of longtime Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who died last year. He was sworn in Monday with his Democratic House colleague Andy Kim of New Jersey.
