Target: U.S. Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, and California State Government
Goal: We call on federal and state authorities to halt the use of immigration enforcement at public events and ensure that all individuals are afforded due process under the law.
At a recent press conference in California, federal agents were seen conducting immigration checks outside the event, sparking outrage among advocates and lawmakers. These actions not only intimidate community members but also undermine the fundamental right to due process guaranteed by federal law.
Public events should be safe spaces for civic engagement, not sites of fear and exclusion. The use of federal agents in this manner disproportionately targets immigrants and people of color, creating a chilling effect on participation in democratic processes.
We urge federal and state authorities to immediately cease these practices and to reaffirm their commitment to upholding civil liberties and due process for all individuals, regardless of immigration status.
