Dems propose law making campuses 'safe spaces' for illegals

Campus Reform reports:

A California bill that would deem public campuses “safe spaces” from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) cleared the State Assembly’s Judiciary Committee Tuesday.

AB-21 was introduced in March by Democratic Assemblyman Ash Kalra, a member of the Judiciary Committee that voted 8-3 to advance the bill to the Assembly Appropriations Committee.


If passed into law, the bill would “ensure that public institutions of higher education are safe spaces free of immigration enforcement activities with access to services and support for all students, faculty, and staff regardless of their immigration status.”

Specifically, the legislation mandates that faculty members of “California’s colleges and universities” must “immediately notify the campus chancellor or president if he or she suspects, or becomes aware that, [ICE], or other public or law enforcement entities working in coordination with federal ICE, are expected to enter, will enter, or have entered, the campus.”

In such a scenario, the bill would also require faculty and staff to “immediately notify any and all students who may or could be subject to an immigration enforcement order or inquiry in a discreet and confidential manner that ICE is suspected to have entered, may enter, or has entered the campus.”

It's long past time that the Department of Education cut off California for harboring illegals.
