SAN CLEMENTE, Calif.—As a statewide overnight curfew took effect in California on Nov. 21, hundreds of people around the state gathered to defy the rules and oppose the stay-at-home order.

The curfew was imposed by Gov. Gavin Newsom in response to rising COVID-19 cases throughout the state and nation. The curfew requires Californians, with the exception of on-the-job essential workers, to bunker down from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.
