In June, LA City Council asked attorneys to write a ban on use of city resources for federal immigration enforcement.
The Los Angeles Police Commission approved a report on Tuesday, July 18, providing details of the Los Angeles Police Department’s continued commitment to not enforce immigration law, as city officials prepare to bring forth an ordinance officially making L.A. a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants.
The report also includes a breakdown of various joint task forces involving the LAPD and other law enforcement agencies conducted in 2022. In each case, no people were arrested for immigration enforcement purposes. That act, which took effect in January 2018, prevents California law enforcement agencies, including the LAPD, from using resources on behalf of federal immigration enforcement agencies. The law says certain sites such as schools, hospitals and courthouses are “safe spaces” for everyone in the community.
