I am writing to encourage you and the City Council to continue the funding of Legal Defense
Fund for immigrants in our community. This program has helped make legal representation a reality for
immigrants facing possible deportation.
My first bill in Congress was to establish a legal defense fund for Refugees and Immigrants.
Immigrants facing deportation need access our legal system and I am proud to have a city from my
district lead the way in this endeavor. I supported the establishment of this fund, approved last year, and I
continue to support its continuation.
I respectfully ask you and the City Council to vote to approve the continuation of the funding and
keep supporting our robust immigrant community. I commend Santa Ana for leading the way on the
rights of immigrants and hope this leadership continues by renewing the Legal Defense Fund for
deportation defense.
Respectfu ,
G
