Apparently, ICE has set up a website to trap individuals attempting to do the right thing. Please exercise caution.

Los Angeles County voted to declare a state of emergency in response to federal ICE raids. Normally reserved for natural disasters, the declaration allows the county to mobilize resources and offer assistance to residents impacted by the raids.

LA County officials approve emergency declaration over immigration raids

The move allows the L.A. County Board of Supervisors to provide rent relief for tenants who have fallen behind as a result of the crackdown on immigrants.

The American people deserve a public health system that puts science before politics.

That's why California and 14 other governors are joining forces to launch the Governors Public Health Alliance to protect communities and guarantee decisions are rooted in data and health.

Jeffries: "If Donald Trump can find $20b to bail out his right-wing dictator friend in Argentina, it's extraordinary to me that Republicans are unwilling to even have a discussion about how we address the healthcare crisis that they've created."

Klippenstein: To what extent it’s going to activate what are called Joint Terrorism Task Forces?

The military is really limited in terms of what they can do.

But these Joint Terrorism Task Forces don’t have those limitations. They can do and go places the military can’t.

Now ICE is stalking the entrances of military bases and arresting the family members coming to visit. I DO hope to see military turn on this illegitimate regime.

ICE's escalating violence and use of excessive force are wreaking havoc and making cities less safe.

Armed, masked federal agents shouldn't be menacing our communities.

Tackles, projectiles and gunfire: Many fear ICE tactics are growing more violent

Videos taken by eye witnesses of federal agent encounters with immigrants in Chicago and elsewhere have shown increasingly tense incidents. Immigrant advocates and observers say they're indicative of a larger trend of aggression among federal immigration officers.
