Law enforcement departments partner with Immigration and Customs Enforcement every day to deport nonviolent undocumented immigrants. They do this in violation of California law.
That's why SN&R is launching the California Immigration Project. When you help fund CIP, your donation pays for independent print, digital and video journalism that will shine light on these stories in outlets throughout the state.
Donate now and your contribution will be matched dollar-for-dollar! Visit Beacon Reader, a site for journalism crowdfunding, here: http://www.beaconreader.com/pitches/immigration-jails-and-deportations-in-california
