I am writing to ask you to vote Yes on Agenda Item 21- <br />the resolution in support of the VISION Act (AB 937 - Carrillo) on Tuesday, May 4. Thank you to <br />Councilmember Phan and Mayor Sarmiento for putting it on the agenda. <br />The VISION Act addresses anti -Asian violence and puts an end to the cycle of trauma for Black, Latinx, and <br />Southeast Asian immigrant and refugee communities who are being double punished through incarceration <br />and deportation in California. <br />Please vote yes on the city resolution in support of the VISION Act. Thank you for your local leadership in <br />setting a standard for bold and strong immigrant rights advocacy. <br />As a person of color and immigrant, the idea that I could be doubled punished in California for a simple mistake is <br />terrifying. Immigrants, like any other U.S. citizen make mistakes. We should be given the same grace as any other U.S. <br />citizen and allow us to live our lives without the fear of deportation. <br />Thank you for your local leadership in setting a standard for bold and strong immigrant rights advocacy. Please confirm <br />receipt of this email correspondence. <br />Best regards, <br />Ferny <br />
