1914 - Signal newspaper owner-editor Scott Newhall born in San Francisco [story]
Scott Newhall


Los Angeles County Supervisor Kathryn Barger issued the following statement with respect to the Board of Supervisors’ approval today of motions concerning DACA, which included implementing a travel ban to the nine states that demanded the DACA program be phased out:

“I am supportive of the DACA program. Upon enactment of this program on June 15, 2012, President Obama stressed that DACA was intended to serve as ‘a temporary stopgap measure’ in anticipation of comprehensive immigration reform. Congress has had five years to act, and they have failed.

Los Angeles County seal“President Trump recently announced the phase out of the DACA program in an attempt to force Congress to act on immigration reform, now. Not phasing out DACA had the potential for an adverse ruling similar to the unconstitutionality of DAPA.

“The President has given Congress six months to do their job and immediately pass immigration reform legislation such as the DREAM ACT, bipartisan legislation that would create a legal process for young ‘Dreamers’ to earn lawful permanent residency.

“For far too long, our broken immigration system has plagued our communities and it’s time to stop the perpetual cycle of fear and inaction. We must be at the forefront of this issue through proactive participation and unite the county in our pursuit of comprehensive immigration reform, the real solution.”

  4. Illegal is Illegal, ship them bsck to their country where they came from!!

  5. Sally Mehr says:

    Hey Barger, absolutely not, no, no, no, they had plenty of time to apply for citizen ship and did not do it, their parents broke the law, enough of this nonsense…

  6. John Gilbert says:

    Down the Rabbit Hole we go….!

  7. Uhh…DUH…at least someone understands the constitution. One thing the left seems to forget is that congressional inaction is in fact an action. If they do nothing then they have decided that DACA kids don’t get special treatment.

  8. Guss Rob says:

    I support DACA (: 100%

  9. I SUPPORT DACA ONE HUNDRED PERCENT…????????

  10. Robert Gast says:

    Reminder, this is a local news site and there has been 3 of these posts today alone.

    One more post short of un liking a page that used to host relevant SCV content.

  11. Lyn O'Kane says:

    Time to go illegals

  12. Dennis Goff says:

    The kids didn’t voluntarily break our laws. Give them amnesty . . . . When their parents voluntarily self-deport. Then we’ll see how much they really wanted a better life for their children.

  13. Don Teller says:

    Dreamers are more successful than our millennials. They aren’t spoiled brats.

  14. Don Teller says:

    Good old SCV white reactionary racists.

  15. John Whitlaw says:

    Hope they Deport them all

  16. What is the issue? President Obama knew his action went beyond the law. President Trump simply turned the tables on a do nothing Congress (Dem and Rep), he placed the burden right back on them.
