Today, in response to Governor Jerry Brown's signing of AB 131 (Cedillo), the second half of the California DREAM Act, the California Immigrant Policy Center issued the following statement:
We heartily applaud Governor Brown's historic decision to sign AB 131. We agree with the Governor that "...The Dream Act benefits us all by giving top students a chance to improve their lives and the lives of all of us."
DUI checkpoints are intended to get drunken drivers off the road. This is a worthy goal that most people support; however across the state the intention has changed with the addition of driver's license checks that directly or indirectly target immigrant communities.
It works like this: A large percentage of the population, 2.6 million people, are ineligible to get a driver's licenses in California.
