LACDP Chair's Statement Following the LA City Council 'Sanctuary City' Vote

The Los Angeles County Democratic Party (LACDP) is proud to announce that the Los Angeles City Council has unanimously voted to declare Los Angeles a 'sanctuary city,' barring the use of city resources or personnel from contributing to federal enforcement of immigration laws. 

The LACDP is looking forward to seeing Mayor Karen Bass take the next step. The LACDP also applauds LAUSD's decision to reaffirm it's status as a "sanctuary district" for immigrants.

 

“This is the first step in protecting our values as Angelenos. We are a city that loves our people, and we open our arms and our doors to all who will be put in jeopardy by the Trump administrations discriminatory and predatory immigration enforcement. Today is a good day for Los Angeles.”

- Chair Mark Ramos

 

The LACDP is looking forward to watching further Los Angeles city efforts to codify rights and protections for all.
