Estoy orgullosa de unirme al @supdavepine, David Canepa, y WARREN SLOCUM para pasar la ordenanza, con el apoyo del Sheriff Corpus, que restringe el uso de los recursos del condado de San Mateo para cooperar con ICE. Mucha gente ha estado abogando por esta ordenanza. ¡Sí se pudo!
The new ordinance out of San Mateo County could not have been passed without the experience and clear vision of people like Maricela Santos, who has been a leader in advocating for immigrant families and holding officials accountable.

NEW: The San Mateo Board of Supervisors passed a county ordinance that will permanently #StopICEtransfers and keep families together! San Mateo County Coalition for Immigrant Rights is proud that our home continues to protect and welcome our immigrant community members.
.Supervisor Noelia Corzo and I fought off a divisive proposed amendment today and our San Mateo County Board of Supervisors passed an ordinance that prohibits county resources to be used to cooperate with ICE. Many residents spoke on the issue. Thank you for sharing your voices.
"With this ordinance, the Board of Supervisors sends a clear message to our community: We are for a justice system where immigration status, country of origin, language or skin color is not a factor." Thank you Supervisor Noelia Corzo smdailyjournal.com/opinion/guest_…
Community represented strong today at San Mateo Board of Supervisors to say #NOonProp36!!! Supervisor Mueller actually proposed a resolution to support prop 36😡 - but Black & Brown communities decimated by the drug war weren’t going to allow us to go back!✊🏾💪🏾 San Mateo County Participatory Defense
Read our op-ed by Santa Clara Public Defender, SV NAACP, & De-Bug: "Prop 36 is falsely guised as an attempt to reduce crime, homelessness and substance use. In reality, the proposition will only exacerbate the issues it claims to address." #StopProp36 sanjosespotlight.com/op-ed-proposit…
