In the report on the addition of the Los Angeles immigration authorities, information workshops and events are being held to inform residents of their rights and details and detailed expectations during their interaction with the Ice Media.
The demand for such a resource is obvious, advocates say. At a recent city council meeting, the council president Marqueece Harris-Dawson, who represents a part of South Los Angeles, said When U.S. immigration and customs enforcement agents are in his area, “Neighbors help neighbors on the street. People who don’t know their rights, neighbors tell them their rights.”
