Tagged: activist, California, immigrant rights, Los Angeles, police
With praise from Jewish, Korean and Hispanic immigrant rights activists, the Los Angeles City Council, voting 11 to 1, passed a resolution Wednesday to oppose the controversial Secure America Through Verification and Enforcement (SAVE) Act that would mandate employers to verify the immigration status of workers and require local police to enforce federal laws.
According to the opponents, major U.S. cities including San Francisco, Boston and Chicago already have expressed opposition and are considering adopting a resolution similar to the one passed in Los Angeles.
