RE: Council Agenda Item 85B -- ICE Contract <br />March 21, 2017 <br />Page 2 <br />In short, without a contractual provision limiting detainees in Santa Ana to those who <br />reside in Orange County -- a provision that ICE is extremely unlikely to accept -- there is little <br />indication that continuing to detain immigrants in the Santa Ana jail will result in immigrants <br />being detained closer to their families and other support. <br />Therefore, I urge you to reject any proposal to continue to detain immigrants in Santa <br />Ana. Thank you for your consideration of MALDEF's views. <br />Sincerely, <br />THOMAS A. SAENZ <br />President & General Counsel <br />TAS:YP <br />
