The City Council approved three legislations aimed at protecting immigrants. One resolution denounces the Trump administration's deportations without due process, citing the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was deported in violation of a court order. The second measure addresses immigration legal services fraud, where unscrupulous individuals exploit immigrants' fears. The legislation aims to strengthen the protections for sanctuaries and immigrants facing deportation, reinforcing the city's commitment to immigrant rights amid federal challenges.
"Today, the City Council once again rejects a politics of fear, xenophobia, and the blatant violations of our sanctuary city laws by the Federal government."
"Nurse's Res. 931 formally denounces the Trump administration's deportation of immigrants without due process."
"Many immigrants are uncertain about their legal options to avoid detention and deportation, leading to exploitation by notarios públicos."
"The resolution highlights the case of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was illegally deported to El Salvador's mega-prison despite a court order barring his deportation."
