Governor Gavin Newsom on deploying CHP to Los Angeles

Los Angeles, California – Governor Gavin Newsom today issued the following statement in response to the federal government’s immigration actions:

As the federal government conducts chaotic immigration sweeps across the country, the state is deploying additional CHP to maintain safety on Los Angeles highways to keep the peace. It’s not their job to assist in federal immigration enforcement. The federal government is sowing chaos so they can have an excuse to escalate. That is not the way any civilized country behaves.
