Six Republican California lawmakers sent a letter to President Donald Trump, asking him to avoid sweeping workplace immigration raids that have caused some workers major fear.
Senate Minority Leader Brian Jones and Assembly Member Laurie Davies, who both represent parts of San Diego County, each signed the June 27 letter penned by State Sen. Suzette Valladares, of the 23rd District.
“We have heard from employers in our districts that recent ICE raids are not only targeting undocumented workers, but also creating widespread fear among other employees, including those with legal immigration status,” the letter reads. “This fear is driving vital workers out of critical industries.”
“We support the enforcement of federal law,” the letter continues. “But we urge you to direct ICE and DHS to focus their enforcement operations on criminal immigrants, and when possible to avoid the kinds of sweeping raids that instill fear and disrupt the workplace.”
Jones and Davies both declined interview requests.
Valladares said the group sent the letter because they were frustrated by California’s Senate Bill 54 – a law passed in 2017 to limit state and local law enforcement’s cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. Earlier this year, they introduced a bill to require local law enforcement to work with federal agents, which ultimately did not advance.
“We have seen decades of failed policy when it comes to border security,” Valladares said. “And so our real intent behind this letter was asking that California change its sanctuary laws, which is why we presented our bill.”
When asked about the letter, the White House pointed to Trump’s comments that aired on Fox News Sunday, proposing a kind of temporary pass to exempt certain workplaces from raids.
“When you go into a farm and he’s had somebody working with him for nine years doing this kind of work, which is hard work to do and a lot of people aren’t going to do it, and you end up destroying a farmer because you took all the people away, it’s a problem,” Trump said.
“I’m on both sides of the thing, I’m the strongest immigration guy that there’s ever been, but I’m also the strongest farmer guy that there’s ever been and that includes also hotels and, you know, places where people work,” he continued.
“We’re working on it right now, we’re going to work it so that some kind of temporary pass where people pay taxes, where the farmer can have a little control as opposed to you walk in and take everybody away,” Trump added.
His comments came as an analysis from the Cato Institute shows 93% of people booked in ICE detention since the fiscal year began in October have not been convicted of a violent crime, in contrast with the administration’s stated goal of targeting violent criminals.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Monday she didn’t have further details on Trump’s proposal.
“The President’s focus and the focus of this administration is, of course, to remove public safety threats from the streets and to deport as many of the illegal criminals, especially the violent criminals, that we know are still here because of the previous administration,” Leavitt said.
“I think it's important to recognize, too, that when you create a disruption in a workplace, it detracts from the purpose of what the president is trying to accomplish, which is to deport criminal, illegal aliens,” said Andrew Hayes, a Lakeside School Board member who’s active in the San Diego County Republican Party.
“The whole purpose of saying let's bring the tenor down is important because people who are here illegally, who are criminals, should know that they're going to be deported,” Hayes continued. “But at the same time, you don't want to threaten people who you know are going to work.”
The letter also asked Trump to “modernize our immigration process to allow non-criminal undocumented immigrants with longstanding ties to our communities a path toward legal status” and reform work visa programs to make it easier for California businesses to hire more employees.
“Here in California, our immigrant population is a huge part of our workforce now,” Valladares said. “We're calling on the president and Congress to figure out those details of what that looks like, but with the understanding that immigrants are an important part of our workforce and California's workforce.”

Isn’t he the guy that grew up with Jerry Lee Lewis and could play piano similarly well?
no idea about the piano, but he was Jerry's cousin. Imagine, being related to Jerry Lee and being even fucking creepier than the guy that married a 13 year old.

the whole closing industry is a shitshow.
I was a manager of an escrow company. I didn't do escrows, I managed a fund control for construction lenders, but downstairs we had about 10 escrow officers doing closings and exchanges. There was somebody crying at her desk every fucking day.

NYC mayor is notoriously difficult to break out of, none of them went on to do greater things after it, their most famous mayor, Time magazine's person of the year. turned out to be the biggest loser in all of politics, a fluffer for the the orange idiot. There has to be a pattern somehow that NYC really is the A&M of political careers.
harsh.

I swear this is a true story: My uncle was a police chief. We were close to my uncle, and he was close to his cops, so we knew all of them and regularly saw them at cookouts, at the lake, whatever. One of his cops, a woman named Tina, participated in some exchange program where she went to England to hang with their cops for a bit, and one of their cops came her after. Of course, she ended up fucking the limey. Anyway, we are all at dinner (my family, uncle's family, Tina and the limey) and the limey goes up to the bartender to ask where he can find a fag.

The drunken passenger who grabbed a woman’s hair and spat in her face during an explosive meltdown on a Southwest Airlines flight is a New York City-based artist, who has worked for high-end brands like Maybelline, Steve Madden and Adidas, according to her online profile.
Leanna Perry, a 32-year-old illustrator, was filmed berating fellow passengers and throwing a violent fit as travelers and airline employees tried to remove her from the plane at LaGuardia airport early Tuesday morning.
The bizarre outburst led witnesses to describe Perry as seeming “possessed” before she was escorted off and arrested.
Perry’s social media and website where she shares her work revealed that when she’s not ruining flights, she’s worked as an artist and designer for several major brands including Maybelline, Adidas, MAC, Steve Madden, Hot Topic, and Shein.
“Shut the f–k up, don’t f–king touch me!” Perry screamed at the bewildered woman, video shows, before other passengers and airline staff intervened.
A Southwest employee repeatedly asked Perry to let go of the woman’s hair — but she refused, videos show.
Staff finally separated the two and zip-tied Perry’s hands behind her back — but her tantrum wasn’t over.
Perry continued to hurl insults at the woman, calling her an “ugly-ass bitch,” while other passengers also got caught in her verbal line of fire.
“I’m sorry black guy! My boyfriend’s black so shut the f–k up,” she slurred to a man assisting the Southwest employees as she stumbled.
Perry then lifted her head and spit right in the face of the woman she had been harassing, video shows. The group restraining her then pulled her away.
“Your boyfriend’s d–k is like 2 inches big. It’s embarrassing. I’m so sorry about your boyfriend,” she continued in the offensive rant directed at the woman.
Perry then said that she “can’t breathe” and fell to the floor between seats, the video shows.
“F–k you!” she then screamed as she violently flailed her legs in the air, kicking another passenger, video shows.
The Minneapolis College of Art and Design graduate was charged with resisting arrest, obstructing governmental administration, disorderly conduct, three counts of harassment and three counts of attempted assault, according to the complaint. -
