<br />Orozco, Norma <br />From:Kelly Miller <KMiller@ImmDef.org> <br />Sent:Wednesday, July 22, 2020 4:31 PM <br />To:eComment <br />Subject:Fully Fund The Deportation Defense Program <br />My name is Kelly Miller and I am submitting a public comment for agenda item 65D in support of the renewal <br />of the Deportation Defense Fund at its current level of $200,000. <br />I am an attorney at Immigrant Defenders Law Center. I represent clients from Santa Ana whose representation <br />is funded through the Deportation Defense Fund. Through my work, I have gotten to know Santa Ana residents <br />facing deportation along with their families and friends. I am inspired by each of my clients, their families, and <br />the contributions they make to Santa Ana. My clients are committed parents, children, sisters and brothers, <br />friends, employees, and churchgoers, but their lives have been made immeasurably more difficult by the U.S. <br />immigration system and racially biased policing. For my clients, the Deportation Defense Fund is a lifeline and <br />their chance to be reunited with their families and to continue building safe and secure lives in Santa Ana. <br />Please, continue providing protection to Santa Ana residents facing detention and deportation. <br />Sincerely, Kelly Miller <br />Confidentiality: This message is intended for the designated recipient(s) only and may contained privileged <br />information.
