Protecting our comunidades: a statement from GreenLatinos

GreenLatinos condemns the use of military and law enforcement force during immigration raids in Los Angeles, asserting that such tactics are used to distract from the federal government's efforts to undermine California's air quality, public health, and public lands. The statement provides a comprehensive list of legal and emergency resources for impacted communities in Southern California, including rapid response hotlines and 'know-your-rights' guidance.

• GreenLatinos describes the use of force by law enforcement against nonviolent protesters and journalists in Los Angeles, specifically citing the use of tear gas, rubber bullets, flash-bang grenades, and pepper balls.
• The organization claims that the current administration is utilizing the United States Military, including the National Guard and the Marines, to target its own citizens.
• GreenLatinos argues that the indiscriminate detention of immigrants and the resulting social unrest are being used as a distraction from federal actions aimed at undermining California's public health, air quality, and public lands.
