00:00I want to say a few words about the events of the last few days.
00:03This past weekend, federal agents conducted large-scale workplace raids in and around Los Angeles.
00:09Those raids continue as I speak.
00:12California is no stranger to immigration enforcement,
00:15but instead of focusing on undocumented immigrants with serious criminal records
00:19and people with final deportation orders,
00:22a strategy both parties have long supported,
00:25this administration is pushing mass deportations,
00:28indiscriminately targeting hard-working immigrant families,
00:32regardless of their roots or risk.
00:35What's happening right now is very different than anything we've seen before.
00:40On Saturday morning, when federal agents jumped out of an unmarked van
00:44near a Home Depot parking lot, they began grabbing people,
00:47a deliberate targeting of a heavily Latino suburb.
00:52A similar scene played out when a clothing company was raided downtown.
00:55In other actions, a U.S. citizen, nine months pregnant, was arrested,
01:01a four-year-old girl taken, families separated, friends quite literally disappearing.
01:08In response, everyday Angelenos came out to exercise their constitutional right
01:14to free speech and assembly, to protest their government's actions.
01:18In turn, the state of California and the city and county of Los Angeles sent our police officers
01:25to help keep the peace, and with some exceptions, they were successful.
01:30Like many states, California is no stranger to this sort of unrest.
01:35We manage it regularly and with our own law enforcement.
01:39But this, again, was different.
01:41What then ensued was the use of tear gas, flashbang grenades, rubber bullets,
01:48federal agents detaining people and undermining their due process rights.
01:53Donald Trump, without consulting California law enforcement leaders,
01:58commandeered 2,000 of our state's National Guard members
02:02to deploy on our streets, illegally and for no reason.
