Immigrant defense funds slashed in San Jose budget cuts - San Jose Spotlight

San Jose is planning to slash its funding for immigrant protection services in half amid a budget deficit, while immigrants continue to face fear of federal enforcement. The city's proposed operating budget for the upcoming fiscal year allocates $500,000 for legal defense services and education - half of what the city allocated last year. Immigration advocates said it isn't enough to keep up with the demands of providing free legal services to a local population worried about being detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. They want the city to restore full funding.
