Statement from former Vice-President Kamala Harris:
“Los Angeles is my home. And like so many Americans, I am appalled at what we are witnessing on the streets of our city.
Deploying the National Guard is a dangerous escalation meant to provoke chaos. In addition to the recent ICE raids in Southern California and across our nation, it is part of the Trump Administration's cruel, calculated agenda to spread panic and division.
This Administration's actions are not about public safety - they're about stoking fear. Fear of a community demanding dignity and due process.
Protest is a powerful tool - essential in the fight for justice.
And as the LAPD, Mayor, and Governor have noted, demonstrations in defense of our immigrant neighbors have been overwhelmingly peaceful.
I continue to support the millions of Americans who are standing up to protect our most fundamental rights and freedoms.”
