ÌÒ×ÓÊÓƵ

The ÌÒ×ÓÊÓƵis representing two California-based organizations—the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence, and the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights—whose members include thousands of immigrants and hundreds of domestic violence service providers across the state.

The Values Act ensures that immigrants and their communities can safely access police protection and other public services, without worrying that their families will be torn apart. It directs local police to prioritize local needs over the Trump administration’s anti-immigrant agenda. As the ACLU’s brief explains, the Tenth Amendment and federal law guarantee California and other jurisdictions the choice of whether to participate in federal deportation programs.

The judge will hold a hearing on June 20, 2018. The ÌÒ×ÓÊÓƵImmigrants’ Rights Project is co-counsel with the ÌÒ×ÓÊÓƵof California, the National Day Laborer Organizing Network, and Asian Americans Advancing Justice – Asian Law Caucus.
