California State and Federal Officials Join Advocates Decrying Public Health Threat Posed by ICE
A delegation of 26 California state legislators, led by Assemblymember Rob Bonta (D-Oakland) submitted a letter to the California Department of Public Health seeking answers on the role and responsibility of state public health authorities with respect to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids and immigrant detention in the state of California. This effort comes in the wake of a letter submitted to ICE by House Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration and Citizenship Chair Zoe Lofgren (D-CA) demanding answers about the alleged “Sanctuary Op” / “political messaging campaign.”
