RALLY AT POMONA CITY HALL IN SUPPORT OF DACA RECIPIENTS
“The message in Pomona
– made clear in a news
conference and rally organized
by the Latina/Latino Roundtable…
of Pomona and San Gabriel Valleys
the day after the announcement
in Washington – was that
Pomona will be here for them.”
“On behalf of the City of Pomona,
let me make this clear –
we want to welcome all of you,
this is your home, and I can
say unequivocally that the City
of Pomona supports its DACA
family,” Pomona Mayor Tim
Sandoval told a crowd of more
than 200 speaking from the steps
of the City Council Chambers.
“It’s unconscionable, it’s unimaginable,
it’s unreasonable,
it’s immoral that in 2017 we’re
having this conversation and that
we have to come together.”
