“What we are seeing in Los Angeles County is a purposeful provocation by the Trump Administration. From arresting immigrants to detaining labor leaders to mobilizing military personnel against peaceful citizens, Trump has made his intentions clear – to demonize, divide & destroy our communities,” said CADEM Chair Rusty Hicks. “Yet his actions will only strengthen the resolve of Angelenos and those who call the Golden State home. Simply put, we will not bow to a king or bend to the will of a dictator. We will speak up, speak out, push back, and fight back today, tomorrow, and every day to come until justice is won.”
