IMMIGRANT RIGHTS

FIGHTING FOR

Los Angeles is a city of immigrants. Our unparalleled diversity has always enriched our region and made us one of the greatest places in the world. Reggie has always believed in creating a Los Angeles for all, regardless of citizenship status. That’s why Reggie is proud to have always fought for immigrant communities to ensure everyone has access to the necessary resources and protections, including:

  • Championed the California IDs for All Act — which is expanding access to state-issued identifications to everyone, regardless of immigration status.

  • Led effort to push Governor Newsom to establish a state relief fund that provided economic assistance to undocumented workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • Extended access to the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) to undocumented people with children under the age of 6, benefiting up to 46,000 Californians.

  • Championed the expansion of health care coverage to all undocumented children in California.

  • Co-authored legislation that created a system of overtime for agricultural workers.

  • Supported California’s sanctuary state law that prevents state and local law enforcement agencies from using their resources on behalf of federal immigration enforcement agencies.
