This panel is about fighting state and local restrictions on Services for Immigrants. The panelists are with national organizations who advocate on immigration issues. I asked them to address what LSC funding programs can do. Just doing introductions now. Audience members are all reflecting on rising anti-immigrant sentiments in their states and community.
I raised the recent Fremont, NE issue that their city council is addressing, which would authorize local law enforcement to enforce federal immigration laws. A lot of that is happening nationwide.
Vivek Malhotra of the ACLU immigration project is beginning the presentation.
More to come...
