Quote:Los Angeles County officials have once again made their priorities crystal clear, and it’s not the safety or well-being of American citizens.

On Tuesday, the far-left Board of Supervisors declared a “state of emergency” in a 4–1 vote in response to the Trump administration’s coordinated ICE raids targeting criminal illegal aliens across Southern California.

Instead of cooperating with federal law enforcement, Los Angeles leaders are mobilizing taxpayer-funded “relief efforts,” funneling state funds into legal aid, and possibly paving the way for a temporary moratorium on evictions, all justified by claims that federal enforcement “created a climate of fear” and “widespread disruption.”

More from FOX 11 Los Angeles:

Supervisor Lindsey Horvath introduced the motion calling for the drafting of the emergency proclamation in response to a report presented to the board last week by county attorneys on options for possibly enacting an eviction moratorium or other protections for people impacted by the raids.

The Los Angeles Tenants Union advocacy group has been pushing the board for weeks to enact such a moratorium, saying the raids are creating enough fear to prevent people from going to work, or prompting businesses to temporarily close, leaving their employees unable to work.

The county attorney’s report noted that an eviction moratorium could be enacted during a declared local emergency, but it would have to be “temporary and narrowly tailored” to address impacts of the emergency, while also protecting landlords’ due process rights and requiring tenants to ultimately repay back rent.

[…]

The proclamation approved by the board states that the raids that began around June 6 “have caused residents to be fearful of leaving their homes, to go to work, take public transportation, access county services including medical services, access open public programs and resources and attend appointments with immigration lawyers and legal service providers.”

The immigration actions “have created a climate of fear, leading to widespread disruption in daily life and adverse impacts to our regional economy due to decreased attendance at workplaces, the temporary or permanent closure of businesses and restaurants and increased strain on our local institutions such as schools, hospitals and places of worship,” according to the proclamation.

The document also cites a recent survey that found a 62% drop in average weekly earning for immigrants. The survey also found that 71% of immigrants have returned to work despite deportation fears, because they were facing possible eviction, and some contended their landlords threatened to report them to U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement if they did not pay rent, according to the proclamation.

They should focus on helping those who lost homes and loved ones to the deadly SoCal wildfires instead. (But they won't because they're prog filth douchenozzles who are desperate to hang on to power, money, and influence at all costs.)

They've approved exactly 2, TWO, building permits in an area that lost more than 500 homes. Why the slow roll? They plan to wait the former residents, i.e. real Californians not the invasion force, out so the State or County can buy the land on the cheap, sell it at confiscatory prices to developers they can tell what to build.

In short, they want high density, multi level apartments and other low cost housing because, well, "equity".

The generational residents are simply told to go away, we don't need you anymore.

Welcome to Califafornia. A generation ago arguably the prettiest State in the Country.

Prog filth ruin everything they touch.

In the 1950s, my dad and two of his brothers owned a grocery store in Memphis. The two brothers decided to move to California to seek their fortune there. My dad wanted to go with them, but my mom put the kabosh on that idea, b/c it would have involved leaving both of their remaining families in Memphis and north Mississippi. Large clans, to say the least. My dad had 10 siblings, my mother had 3.

My uncles went ahead with their immediate families, and remained there until their deaths several decades later. They loved it there.

I wonder how my uncles would feel about making that same move now, lol. Most people are headed in the opposite direction these days.

My question is: why do the voters continue taking this abuse? It's beyond sensible.
