Zuniga, Diana <br /> From: Dana Jazayeri < <br /> Sent: Tuesday, July 01, 2025 2:39 PM <br /> To: eComment <br /> Subject: Support Agenda item #32 <br /> Attention: This email originated from outside of City of Santa Ana.Use caution when opening attachments or links. <br /> stand in strong support of item #32 on the Council agenda for Tuesday, July 1, as a lifelong Santa Ana <br /> resident and voter here in the city of Santa Ana. <br /> It is alarming to see the constant media footage of local residents being chased and captured by <br /> individuals who purport to be working as part of immigration enforcement but fail to make their <br /> identities and authority to act known. As an educator, I can attest to the intense traumas that our <br /> very own SAUSD students have experienced, leaving them with deep psychological damage <br /> that endures throughout their youth and beyond. I can also attest as a neighbor and family friend to <br /> the sense of terror that has been instilled in the hearts and minds of families across our city because <br /> of these raids. Allowing these officers to proceed without a modicum of transparency about who they <br /> are and even their authorization to conduct such operations threaten the sense of safety for us all in <br /> Santa Ana, lowering our quality of life and our trust in government to act lawfully. <br /> Agenda item 32 is also in line with actions being taken at the federal level, co-authored by our own <br /> Congressman Lou Correa, to demand more lawful accountability called the No Secret Police Act. And <br /> our state lawmakers have proposed related legislation with SB 805 and SB 627. It is clear that laying <br /> low is no longer a viable option and that direct actions must be taken to preserve our basic rights <br /> before they are violated even further. <br /> You were elected to lead by our residents, and I urge you to take action that demonstrates that <br /> leadership tonight. Move forward to demand that all law enforcement wear visible identification and a <br /> ban on wearing masks that conceal their identities when engaged with the public. <br /> Respectfully, <br /> Dana Jazayderi <br /> <br /> Resident, Parent &t Business Owner <br /> i <br />
