Councilman Luis Marino, firm defender of the community, REJECTS this petition, the same that will be submitted at the next meeting of the City Council to be held on Monday, July 3, 7 pm.
“You can not continue attacking, creating pain and fears in a community that only do is works honestly, I invite my community to unite, participate and oppose this pretense,” said Councilman and Deputy Mayor Luis Marino.
HVCC joins this rejection, this administration can not continue to criminalize an entire community that contributes to the development and progress of local economies, No more fears and anguishes can be sown; You can not unprotected a community that will see the police more suspicious and will not feel safe to make complaints.
We make a great call to community action and resistance. May our voice and our rejection be heard at the Council meeting. We do not want immigration in our neighborhoods.
