Will California become the first asylum state for undocumented immigrants in the United States?

San Francisco, June 5, 2008-California Governor Brown signed a controversial asylum law SB54 on June 5 to support the protection of undocumented immigrants. The law will be implemented from 20 18, and California will become the first asylum state in the United States.

The bill proposed by Kevin de Ryan, Speaker of the State Senate from Los Angeles, was passed by 49 votes to 25 in the State House of Representatives on September 5 this year, passed by 27 votes to1/kloc-0 in the Senate on September 6, and signed into law by Brown on October 5, 2008.

This bill was passed by the parliament in April this year, but it was opposed by the police. The main content of the revised bill is to prohibit state law enforcement officers from asking people about their immigration status and to prohibit state law enforcement officers from participating in federal immigration enforcement actions. In about 800 criminal charges, if an immigrant is convicted of one or more serious crimes, the police can be allowed to notify the Federal Immigration Enforcement Office. If it is a misdemeanor, state law enforcement officers may not hand over the immigrants to federal officials. In addition, the bill also allows federal immigration law enforcement officers to continue to cooperate with state correctional officials and enter county-level prisons to interview immigrant criminals.

On the same day, Brown also signed 10 other laws related to the rights and interests of immigrants, including restricting the increase of detention centers, expanding educational services for immigrants, and expanding the protection of undocumented immigrants in renting houses and workplaces.

Brown said that these laws will ensure that those who work hard and contribute to California are respected.

Legal supporters say that undocumented immigrants will no longer worry about being deported after reporting to law enforcement officers. Opponents worry that California will become unsafe, and the state government will protect undocumented immigrants who commit crimes at the expense of law-abiding citizens.
