Calls for immediate release of labor leader David Huerta

Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn has released the following statement condemning the ICE raids that took place across Los Angeles today as well as calling for the immediate release of labor leader David Huerta:

“The ICE raids across Los Angeles today are chilling. They aren’t targeting violent criminals – they are sweeping up hardworking people in our communities just trying to provide for their families. These agents are armed to the teeth and it is clear their goal is to make people afraid and its working.

I understand that during this morning’s raids, SEIU California President David Huerta was injured by federal agents and wrongfully detained. I am calling for his immediate release. This is a democracy. People have a right to peacefully protest, to observe law enforcement activity, and to speak out against injustice.”
