New law aims to ease communications for immigrants detained in hospitals (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Governor Gavin Newsom this week signed a bill aimed at making it easier for people in immigration custody, who are hospitalized, to stay in contact with family members. The new law was written partly in response to reports of hospitals using “blackout policies” for patients in immigration custody. Those policies can include removing a patient’s name from the hospital directory, using a pseudonym or prohibiting staff from confirming the person is even there. The new law requires hospitals and oth

Bills would target those who profit from ICE detention (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Advocates rallied at the state Capitol Tuesday to urge Governor Gavin Newsom to sign two bills targeting businesses that profit from immigration detention and enforcement. Bruno Huizar with California Immigrant Policy Center says his family was permanently separated when he was a teenager after his father was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers.
