This court ruling, however, is a threat to all Americans. Decisions like this will only serve to embolden the Trump Administration, which has actively sought to stifle dissent and enact a cruel, regressive agenda.

Our message to the Supreme Court’s Republican majority is clear: you have betrayed the Constitution and undermined the very protections that safeguard us all. We are not pawns to make an example of — we are citizens, taxpayers, parents, neighbors, students, workers, and community leaders. We will mobilize in the streets and in the courtroom.

We will protest, litigate, organize, and demand our dignity. We will not be silenced.

Long Beach Latino Democratic Club - ¡Para la gente! Meeting, Wednesday, September 17, 2025 from 6:30-8 PM. Teamsters Local 848 Long Beach Office, 3888 Cherry Avenue #100, Long Beach, CA 90807.

Our statement, continued. 2/2

Statement by the Long Beach Latino Democratic Club on U.S. Supreme Court Ruling.

The Long Beach Latino Democratic Club condemns in the strongest possible terms yesterday’s devastating United States Supreme Court ruling in Vasquez Perdomo v. Noem.

The 6-3 Republican court majority has, in essence, given Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) permission to engage in racial, linguistic and occupational profiling. Though this is not the final ruling, the Supreme Court's action and recent history strongly suggests in will further erode constitutional protections.

This decision puts all Latino families - citizens, permanent residents, and undocumented alike, at risk for ICE harassment, detention, or deportation. We are under threat not for any wrongdoing, but for the color of our skin, our language and for who we are.

Please see our statement regarding the U.S. Supreme Court's recent decision to allow ICE to continue using racial, linguistic and occupational profiling for raids and arrests.

A statement that reads: FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 8, 2025 Contact: Long Beach Latino Democratic Club 📧 lblatinodems@gmail.com Long Beach Latino Democratic Club Condemns Ongoing ICE Raids Across LA County and Demands Full Implementation of Updated Long Beach Values Act LONG BEACH, CA — The Long Beach Latino Democratic Club strongly condemns the ongoing ICE raids currently taking place across the Greater Los Angeles area, which have sparked fear and instability in our immigrant communities. These raids are part of a coordinated escalation of federal immigration enforcement that threatens the very values of justice, dignity, and inclusion that Long Beach claims to uphold. We are particularly alarmed that these actions are occurring in the wake of Long Beach’s January 2025 update to the Long Beach Values Act—an ordinance originally passed in 2018 in response to SB 54, California’s sanctuary state law. While the original act aimed to reduce local collaboration with ICE - loopholes and weak enforcement left many of our residents vulnerable. “The updated Values Act, passed earlier this year, was meant to close the gaps in local cooperation with ICE and ensure stronger protections for immigrant communities,” said Kiki Lizárraga, President of the Long Beach Latino Democratic Club. “But without full transparency and...(continued on next page)

(Continuing from previous page)...accountability in implementation, the promise of sanctuary remains unfulfilled.” The January 2025 amendments to the Long Beach Values Act included: ● Prohibiting all city departments from sharing personal information or release dates with ICE without a judicial warrant ● Mandating public reporting of any federal immigration agency requests made to the city ● Creating a Community Oversight Committee to monitor compliance and elevate resident concerns Despite these improvements, reports from community members and local advocacy groups like ÓRALE Long Beach indicate that federal agents continue to conduct operations near homes, workplaces, and schools—creating a chilling effect on civic participation and community trust. Long Beach cannot be a sanctuary in name only. We demand full protection, full implementation, and full accountability. ### For media inquiries, interview requests, or to join our upcoming organizing meetings, contact us at lblatinodems@gmail.com.

Donald Trump is using us – both as Latinos and as Californians, to further his cruel and divisive agenda.

The aggressive raids and deployment of National Guard and US Troops are designed to intimidate our community and provoke conflict for the cameras.

Let us be clear: we are not intimidated.
