Gavin Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cox will need to woo more centrist voters to have any chance of competing against Newsom in a state where Republicans are now outnumbered by no party preference voters.

Well, you know what, that's exactly what Gavin Newsom is talking about.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Cox didn't back away from one other key issue dividing Democrats and Republicans: California's sanctuary state law, which prohibits local law enforcement from cooperating with immigration officials in many instances.

So they're placed in shelters run by the Department of Health and Human Services, while their parents face charges — in most cases, a misdemeanor charge for illegal entry. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is a big departure from past practice. Previous administrations tried to keep parents and children together in family detention centers, or released them into the U.S. to wait for their immigration court dates. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen continues to defend the new policy. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We will refer 100 percent of illegal Southwest border crossings to the Department of Justice for prosecution,\" Nielsen said at a press conference near the Southwest border in Nogales, Ariz., on Thursday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In communities across this country, if you commit a crime, the police will take you to jail,\" she said. \"It should be the same on the border.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But critics say this isn't really about law and order. They say separating immigrant families is cruel and immoral. Many of the people crossing the border are fleeing from violence and lawlessness in Central America and are seeking asylum in the U.S.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This is not who we are as Americans,\" said Rep. Joaquin Castro, D-Texas, at a protest Thursday night in San Antonio. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Your presence here tonight is a signal back to Washington,\" Castro said, \"that just because somebody crosses a border, doesn't make them nonhuman.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11672174\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2018/06/img_2154-0002fda0294681d2db68399d5aac849b331c03a9-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Protesters gathered Friday in Washington, New York City, Miami, Atlanta and other cities.\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11672174\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Protesters gathered Friday in Washington, New York City, Miami, Atlanta and other cities. \u003ccite>(Marisa Peñaloza /NPR)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Protesters gathered Friday in New York City; Santa Monica, Calif.; Miami; Atlanta and other cities. And they held a protest last night on the steps of the county courthouse in El Paso, Texas. Immigration lawyers in this West Texas border town have been saying for months that they saw families separated, long before the Trump administration's \"zero tolerance\" policy became official. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"For weeks or months, they'll go without knowing where their kids are, or without being able to talk to them,\" said Linda Rivas, executive director of the Las Americas Immigrant Advocacy Center in El Paso. Even when parents have served their time for illegal entry, Rivas says, they're often placed in immigration detention without their children. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It just ends up being a very helpless situation,\" she said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigrant rights advocates aren't just protesting. They're appealing to the Organization of American States to put pressure on the Trump administration. And they've asked a federal court in California to step in and stop these family separations. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They're still waiting for a ruling. \u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2018 NPR.

Gerrittson has to cross a busy street, but in his 80s, he’s not as nimble as he used to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I tell him he has to run if he wants to make it across the street as a car zooms toward us. He picks up his pace a bit and yells, “I fall down a lot when I walk, so I don’t like to run.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hanging the signs isn’t a simple operation. Like a master mountaineer, Gerrittson has developed an elaborate system. There are ropes, hooks, zip ties and a razor blade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He is halfway through hanging his sign when a truck driver blares his horn. “When they see me putting it up, they’ll honk at me,\" he says. \"It’s an indication of approval, I think.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gerrittson likes the fact that in California, a center of resistance to federal immigration policies, he can broadcast to tens of thousands of sympathetic commuters every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s the rewarding part of it, the positive response that I get,” he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But not everyone responds positively, and people can cut the signs down if they don’t like them, like in \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rw-CONVDn8A\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this video\u003c/a> uploaded by Robin Hvidston, in which she cheers on a man tearing down a sign in Azusa.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Gerrittson doesn’t mind that his signs get ripped down. He says it adds to his struggle. \"Your life is redeemed not by winning a struggle, but by struggling,\" he says, quoting a Mexican proverb. \"That is what redeems you, the struggle for what is right. I’m taking chances.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His protest days go back to the Vietnam era, specifically a 1967 protest in Century City that devolved into a bloody melee. He says his distaste for authority dates back to run-ins with a bullying sergeant during the Korean War. “I had a sergeant kick my ass one time.

And eventually, years later, back to the small town in the Mexican state of Hidalgo where she was born.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sitting in her mother’s living room in Hidalgo on an armchair draped with a bright serape blanket, Maria reflected on the nursing career and family she built in California, and the deportation that wrenched her away -- unexpected outcomes of that long-ago crash.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She was just 18 the day the plane went down, and had already earned an accounting degree and gotten a good job as a secretary in a hospital near Mexico City. In addition to answering the phones, a doctor often called on Maria to help attend patients -- including the pilot injured in the plane crash.

And she’s found comfort in that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If Maria gets denied for an H-1B visa to return to Oakland, she plans to apply for hospital jobs in Canada so she can pay the mortgage and put her kids through college and graduate school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
