California Democrats Introduce Legislation to Undermine Immigration Enforcement
Legislators in the California State Assembly and State Senate began the 2017-2018 legislative session by introducing a package of bills prioritizing the interests of illegal aliens over its lawful residents. (Senate President Pro Tempore Press Release, Dec. 5, 2016) Democrats in both chambers introduced measures to thwart immigration enforcement under the upcoming Trump administration.
First, State Senator Ben Hueso (D-40) introduced Senate Bill 6 (S.B. 6) to provide taxpayer-funded legal representation to illegal aliens, despite a federal law prohibiting the expenditure of government money on legal representation for aliens in immigration matters. (8 U.S.C. 1229a(b)(4); 8 U.S.C. 1362) Notably, S.B. 6 provides illegal aliens with free legal representation for civil proceedings, something that is not provided to U.S. citizens who face civil legal issues, such as foreclosures, evictions proceedings, child custody cases, or divorce proceedings. (S.B. 6) Aliens that wish to be represented by legal counsel are free to do so, but federal law stipulates that it must be at no cost to the government. (8 U.S.C. 1229a(b)(4); 8 U.S.C. 1362)

Forget it, it's California.
The "lawful residents" don't count.
Particularly if they happen to be of Euro origin.
¡demasiado, gringos!
