I am submitting a public comment for agenda item 65D in <br />support of the renewal of the Deportation Defense Fund at its current level of $200,000. Please, continue providing <br />protection to Santa Ana residents facing detention and deportation. Of the many things to cut the budget down in Santa <br />Ana this is not one of them at all. Protecting our immigrant residents from the over policing and in humane treatment <br />that the immigration system does should be one of our top priorities. Currently seeing how this administration is <br />treating immigrants in the detention centers and outside of them we should be doing everything we can to support the <br />proper funding of the organizations doing the ground work especially if we want to proudly state we are a sanctuary <br />city. <br />Best, <br />Jasmine Esparza <br />
