June 22, 2109 - SACRAMENTO – Governor Gavin Newsom issued the following statement on Friday in response to President Trump’s proposed plans to deport undocumented immigrants, including asylum seekers:

“The President’s proposed raids are cruel, misdirected and are creating unnecessary fear and anxiety. I want Californians to know they have legal rights and protections, regardless of their immigration status. California is a place of refuge – that includes our schools, our courts and our hospitals and clinics. We hold certain institutions sacred and people should continue to access programs and services they need.”

Information on your rights and how to prepare for an encounter with immigration authorities is available here.
