prison through the rigorous parole process. However, instead of being reunited with their <br />families, CDCR collaborates with ICE to funnel them to immigration detention where they face <br />permanent separation from their families and deportation to an entirely unfamiliar country. This <br />includes Kao Saelee, a Mien refugee from Laos who fought wildfires while incarcerated, but was <br />still turned over to ICE last August, during the pandemic and currently remains in ICE detention <br />in Louisiana. We stand in solidarity with other heavily criminalized immigrant communities and <br />communities of color, and believe the cruel practice of transferring community members must <br />stop. <br />In 2016, Santa Ana passed the strongest sanctuary city ordinance in the country and committed <br />the city's support with the CA Values Act. This resolution presents another opportunity for Santa <br />Ana to strongly demonstrate its commitment to protecting refugee and immigrant communities <br />from cruel detention and deportation in the city and statewide. <br />Please vote yes on the city resolution in support of the VISION Act. We thank you for your local <br />leadership in setting a standard for bold and strong immigrant rights advocacy. Please confirm <br />receipt of this email correspondence. <br />Sincerely, <br />Melanie Kim <br />Staff Attorney <br />Asian Americans Advancing Justice - Asian Law Caucus <br />melaniek@advancingjustice-alc.org <br />w .adv ncingjustice-alc.org <br />
