After years of activism, the LA County Board of Supervisors Tuesday ended the practice of transferring those in the custody of LA County Sheriffs to ICE detention centers without a judicial warrant. ARC's Manager of Advocacy and Community Organizing Kent Mendoza, one of the coalition's leaders, shares his story: "Six years ago, when I was barely 20, the Sheriff’s Department transferred me to ICE."

Thank you to all the partners and advocates ([link removed][UNIQID]) who pushed to ensure this protection for our immigrant community members and to Supervisor Hilda Solis for introducing the motion!
