The 32-year-old came to the United States when he was five. His parents were worried about what services he would have access to to help with his disabilities. So they settled in South Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He went to a school that specializes in working with deaf and hard of hearing students. And he was able to build a life for himself. He got protection from the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, or DACA, in 2013 and has continually renewed it. He was hired at a car wash in Temple City in 2020 and has worked there ever since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But last month, that business was one of several hit by immigration agents, as the Trump administration ratcheted up enforcement efforts across Southern California. Because of his disability, he couldn’t hear the commotion surrounding him. LA Times reporter Brittny Mejia, who spoke with Diaz Santana and his family, said he was eventually detained. “He was like, okay, they’re probably going to want to see my ID. So he takes his wallet out to show them. And he said that one of the agents took his wallet from him, with his real ID in it,” Mejia said. “And then he takes this phone out so he could tell them about his disability, because that’s how he can communicate. And they just take his phone away. They put him into one of the SUV’s. After they’ve handcuffed him, they start typing a message to him, ‘what country are you from?’ And he’s trying to gesture at them, I can’t sign, I can’t communicate, my hands are cuffed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was eventually taken to a detention center in downtown Los Angeles. His family was trying to get in touch with him, but eventually, through an ICE locator, they found out he had been deported to El Paso, Texas. Immigration officials explained that being part of DACA does not give him legal status, but they didn’t explain why he was in custody, especially since he didn’t have a criminal record. Throughout this process, Diaz Santana said he was not given the accommodations for his disability. The federal government denies these claims, saying they gave him a communication board and an American Sign Language interpreter. But Diaz Santana tells the Times the first time anyone spoke to him in sign language was at his bond hearing, which was on July 2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mejia reports that Diaz Santana is back at work, but his family says he’s much more cautious about going out. He’s saddled with an ankle monitor and is afraid of getting it wet or straying too far from home, fearing he might get picked up by ICE again. The car wash has supported his efforts to get re-acclimated, and his attorney said that since his story was published, she’s received many messages from the community from people offering to help.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/criminal-justice/ca-attorney-general-asks-court-to-put-la-countys-juvenile-halls-under-state-control\">\u003cstrong>CA Attorney General Wants Changes For LA County’s Juvenile Halls\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>California Attorney General Rob Bonta is asking a judge to put Los Angeles County juvenile halls \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-asks-court-place-los-angeles-county-juvenile-halls\">under state control.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The move comes after a litany of scandals at county facilities, including overdoses and accusations of gladiator fights. “Let me be clear, this is the last resort,” Bonta said. “ But it’s also the one path left to protect the safety, dignity, and basic rights of the young people in these facilities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta repeatedly laid blame on the county for failing to address the crises at its youth facilities. In 2021, the attorney general issued a judgement demanding the county come into compliance after a state investigation found that there were “unsafe and illegal” conditions at county juvenile halls. Bonta said Wednesday that the county was out of compliance with 75% of the provisions in that agreement. “ We gave the county numerous opportunities to fix this on its own,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta is asking the Los Angeles County Superior Court to place the facilities\u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/attachments/press-docs/FILED%20Declaration_in_Support_of_Ex_Parte_Application.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu> into a receivership\u003c/u>\u003c/a>. The court-appointed receiver would be able to hire and fire county employees, create policies at the facilities and acquire equipment to bring the county into compliance, according to the court filing. The Los Angeles County Probation Department responded to the news calling Bonta’s filing misleading. In a statement, county spokesperson Vicky Waters said the department was concerned that the request seeks “expansive authority through an expedited court process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2025/07/gop-budget-increases-health-insurance-costs/\">\u003cstrong>How GOP Budget Bill Will Affect The Cost Of California Health Insurance\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Heather Altman quit her corporate job and opened an environmental consulting business in 2014 when the Affordable Care Act made it possible for her to afford independent health insurance. Her monthly premium for a platinum plan was $356.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, Altman has downgraded to a gold plan and pays $1,147 per month. That’s a 222% increase over the past decade for less comprehensive coverage. Medical inflation has always outpaced general inflation, but early analyses project premiums will increase even more dramatically as a result of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1/text?s=1&r=1&q=%7B%22search%22%3A%22chamberActionDateCode%3A%5C%222025-07-01%7C119%7C17000%5C%22+AND+billIsReserved%3A%5C%22N%5C%22%22%7D\">reconciliation budget recently signed by President Donald Trump\u003c/a>, and Altman is worried she won’t be able to pay for health insurance any longer. “Since the Senate passed this monstrosity I’ve been trying to figure out how I can land on my feet,” Altman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Altman is one of nearly 2 million people in California who rely on the Affordable Care Act marketplace, commonly known as Obamacare or Covered California. The majority of enrollees are lower- to middle-income earners making $60,240 or less as individuals or $124,800 or less as a family of four. Nearly 800,000 people in California make half that amount.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump’s budget bill made \u003ca href=\"https://www.kff.org/tracking-the-affordable-care-act-provisions-in-the-2025-budget-bill/\">significant changes to Covered California\u003c/a> that experts and \u003ca href=\"https://www.healthsystemtracker.org/brief/early-indications-of-the-impact-of-the-enhanced-premium-tax-credit-expiration-on-2026-marketplace-premiums/\">insurers\u003c/a> say will increase out-of-pocket costs for consumers. In California on average, premiums are expected to increase by 66%, or $101, per month starting next year without subsidies, according to \u003ca href=\"https://hbex.coveredca.com/data-research/library/Brief%201%20IRA%20ACA%20Premium%20Impacts%202025.pdf\">projections from Covered California\u003c/a>. Lower-income people will see even higher increases because they receive more subsidies. Those making less than 400% of the federal poverty level (about $60,240 per year for an individual) are projected to pay an average of $191 more monthly, according to Covered California data. More than 170,000 middle-income enrollees will lose financial assistance entirely. Some federal subsidies will still be available, but they are less comprehensive than the enhanced subsidies, and fewer people qualify.\u003c/p>\n\n",

He was hired at a car wash in Temple City in 2020 and has worked there ever since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But last month, that business was one of several hit by immigration agents, as the Trump administration ratcheted up enforcement efforts across Southern California. Because of his disability, he couldn’t hear the commotion surrounding him. LA Times reporter Brittny Mejia, who spoke with Diaz Santana and his family, said he was eventually detained. “He was like, okay, they’re probably going to want to see my ID. So he takes his wallet out to show them. And he said that one of the agents took his wallet from him, with his real ID in it,” Mejia said. “And then he takes this phone out so he could tell them about his disability, because that’s how he can communicate. And they just take his phone away. They put him into one of the SUV’s. After they’ve handcuffed him, they start typing a message to him, ‘what country are you from?’ And he’s trying to gesture at them, I can’t sign, I can’t communicate, my hands are cuffed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He was eventually taken to a detention center in downtown Los Angeles. His family was trying to get in touch with him, but eventually, through an ICE locator, they found out he had been deported to El Paso, Texas. Immigration officials explained that being part of DACA does not give him legal status, but they didn’t explain why he was in custody, especially since he didn’t have a criminal record. Throughout this process, Diaz Santana said he was not given the accommodations for his disability. The federal government denies these claims, saying they gave him a communication board and an American Sign Language interpreter. But Diaz Santana tells the Times the first time anyone spoke to him in sign language was at his bond hearing, which was on July 2.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In 2021, the attorney general issued a judgement demanding the county come into compliance after a state investigation found that there were “unsafe and illegal” conditions at county juvenile halls. Bonta said Wednesday that the county was out of compliance with 75% of the provisions in that agreement. “ We gave the county numerous opportunities to fix this on its own,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bonta is asking the Los Angeles County Superior Court to place the facilities\u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/system/files/attachments/press-docs/FILED%20Declaration_in_Support_of_Ex_Parte_Application.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu> into a receivership\u003c/u>\u003c/a>. The court-appointed receiver would be able to hire and fire county employees, create policies at the facilities and acquire equipment to bring the county into compliance, according to the court filing. The Los Angeles County Probation Department responded to the news calling Bonta’s filing misleading. In a statement, county spokesperson Vicky Waters said the department was concerned that the request seeks “expansive authority through an expedited court process.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"entry-title \">\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/health/2025/07/gop-budget-increases-health-insurance-costs/\">\u003cstrong>How GOP Budget Bill Will Affect The Cost Of California Health Insurance\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Heather Altman quit her corporate job and opened an environmental consulting business in 2014 when the Affordable Care Act made it possible for her to afford independent health insurance.

Now, nearly 3,000 patients there will need to find new medical providers. CHLA’s decision follows an executive order signed by President Trump in January that \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/protecting-children-from-chemical-and-surgical-mutilation/\">threatened to cut funding for hospitals\u003c/a> that help patients under age 19 medically transition. CHLA receives two-thirds of its funding from federal sources, and said in a statement that federal agencies have already terminated some of its grants. “Despite [a] deeply held commitment to supporting LA’s gender-diverse community, the hospital has been left with no viable path forward,” the statement said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In response, local organizations, including the Los Angeles LGBT Center and Gender Justice LA, scheduled a series of protests over the closure. On June 26, Pitchenik attended one of these rallies in front of the hospital, and stood on a bench to speak to the crowd: “I learned how to not only survive, but also thrive in my own body, because of the life-saving health care provided to me right here through Children’s Hospital Los Angeles.” Pitchenik is trans and nonbinary, and says they hated themselves deeply before they started counseling and medical treatment. “[Now] the next generation of trans youth aren’t going to be able to have the resource that we did,” they say.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>LGBT advocates tell KCRW they are concerned current low-income patients won’t be able to find new doctors. “We’ve never had enough providers when it comes to trans youth care,” says Kathie Moehlig, the founder and executive director of the San Diego-based nonprofit \u003ca href=\"https://transfamilysos.org/\">TranFamily Support Services\u003c/a>, and the mom of a trans child. Moehlig and her staff are helping about 100 of the CHLA families find new options for their kids.

Some immigrant and tenant rights groups say cities should be digging deeper to help families in need. Local relief efforts have been complicated by municipal budget shortfalls.

The lawsuit argues that the law defunds Planned Parenthood’s services in violation of multiple constitutional amendments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling, which left both parties dissatisfied, partly blocked the law from taking effect but only for a \u003ca href=\"https://litigationtracker.law.georgetown.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Planned-Parenthood-Federation-of-America_2025.07.21_MEMORANDUM-ORDER.pdf\">small fraction of Planned Parenthood organizations\u003c/a>. None of California’s Planned Parenthood health centers are included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Monday night ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani stated that Planned Parenthood’s arguments show a “substantial likelihood of success,” but her order did not apply to most of the organization’s nearly 600 clinics. Instead the only clinics that may continue to receive funding while the lawsuit is ongoing are those that do not provide abortions because they are located in states where it is banned. Smaller health centers that received less than $800,000 in federal funds will also be allowed to receive federal reimbursements. A previous temporary restraining order that blocked the funding cut for all Planned Parenthood health centers expired Monday. The new order replaces it. In California, the funding loss amounts to roughly $300 million and jeopardizes the sexual and reproductive health clinic network’s ability to keep its doors open throughout the state, said Jodi Hicks, president and chief executive of Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"scaip scaip-1 \">\u003c/aside>\n\n",

Some immigrant and tenant rights groups say cities should be digging deeper to help families in need. Local relief efforts have been complicated by municipal budget shortfalls.

The lawsuit argues that the law defunds Planned Parenthood’s services in violation of multiple constitutional amendments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling, which left both parties dissatisfied, partly blocked the law from taking effect but only for a \u003ca href=\"https://litigationtracker.law.georgetown.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Planned-Parenthood-Federation-of-America_2025.07.21_MEMORANDUM-ORDER.pdf\">small fraction of Planned Parenthood organizations\u003c/a>. None of California’s Planned Parenthood health centers are included.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the Monday night ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Indira Talwani stated that Planned Parenthood’s arguments show a “substantial likelihood of success,” but her order did not apply to most of the organization’s nearly 600 clinics. Instead the only clinics that may continue to receive funding while the lawsuit is ongoing are those that do not provide abortions because they are located in states where it is banned. Smaller health centers that received less than $800,000 in federal funds will also be allowed to receive federal reimbursements. A previous temporary restraining order that blocked the funding cut for all Planned Parenthood health centers expired Monday. The new order replaces it. In California, the funding loss amounts to roughly $300 million and jeopardizes the sexual and reproductive health clinic network’s ability to keep its doors open throughout the state, said Jodi Hicks, president and chief executive of Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"scaip scaip-1 \">\u003c/aside>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The Eaton Fire erupted about 12 hours earlier, and driven by extreme Santa Ana winds, it was burning a path through neighborhoods of 100-year-old homes and tight-knit, \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://laist.com/news/climate-environment/in-altadena-where-many-black-families-became-homeowners-displaced-residents-grapple-with-grief-and-uncertainty\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">multigenerational communities\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sparks are flying in my backyard right now,” Anthony Mitchell Sr. told the dispatcher, his voice calm. “And is the backyard on fire or just sparked?” the dispatcher replied. “It’s sparks right now, but it’s getting close,” he said. “All right. We’ll give them that information. They should be there as soon as possible,” the dispatcher told him. “OK. Thank you, ’cause I’m scared with me and my son being disabled,” Anthony Mitchell Sr. replied. “OK, they’re on their way,” the dispatcher said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>LAist obtained 911 calls from Anthony Mitchell Sr., who had a disability and lived with his disabled son in the 100 block of Terrace Street. The calls — released by the L.A. County Fire Department nearly five months after LAist requested them — shed light on why and how inadequate emergency planning, training and coordination leaves people with disabilities behind when disaster strikes. The calls are being published with the permission of the Mitchell family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts LAist spoke with said the Mitchells’ case highlights long-running challenges and stalled efforts to improve support for people with disabilities during disasters. Still, they emphasized that even the best planning can’t save everyone. “ No matter how strong the emergency plan is, chances of help arriving quickly in a major catastrophic event are not good,” said \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"http://www.jik.com/bio.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>June Isaacson Kailes\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, a Los Angeles-based disability policy consultant. It’s why early notification to people with disabilities is key, she said.

LAist reporter Erin Stone recently obtained 911 calls from \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/climate-environment/despite-three-911-calls-two-homebound-disabled-men-died-in-the-eaton-fire-waiting-for-rescue\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">two disabled Eaton Fire victims\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> through a public records request. The calls shed light on why, and how emergency planning continues to leave people with disabilities behind.\u003c/span>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The LA County Sheriff’s Department is currently investigating an apartment complex in Santa Monica.

The Eaton Fire erupted about 12 hours earlier, and driven by extreme Santa Ana winds, it was burning a path through neighborhoods of 100-year-old homes and tight-knit, \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://laist.com/news/climate-environment/in-altadena-where-many-black-families-became-homeowners-displaced-residents-grapple-with-grief-and-uncertainty\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">multigenerational communities\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sparks are flying in my backyard right now,” Anthony Mitchell Sr. told the dispatcher, his voice calm. “And is the backyard on fire or just sparked?” the dispatcher replied. “It’s sparks right now, but it’s getting close,” he said. “All right. We’ll give them that information. They should be there as soon as possible,” the dispatcher told him. “OK. Thank you, ’cause I’m scared with me and my son being disabled,” Anthony Mitchell Sr. replied. “OK, they’re on their way,” the dispatcher said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>LAist obtained 911 calls from Anthony Mitchell Sr., who had a disability and lived with his disabled son in the 100 block of Terrace Street. The calls — released by the L.A. County Fire Department nearly five months after LAist requested them — shed light on why and how inadequate emergency planning, training and coordination leaves people with disabilities behind when disaster strikes. The calls are being published with the permission of the Mitchell family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts LAist spoke with said the Mitchells’ case highlights long-running challenges and stalled efforts to improve support for people with disabilities during disasters. Still, they emphasized that even the best planning can’t save everyone. “ No matter how strong the emergency plan is, chances of help arriving quickly in a major catastrophic event are not good,” said \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"http://www.jik.com/bio.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-cms-ai=\"0\">\u003cu>June Isaacson Kailes\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, a Los Angeles-based disability policy consultant. It’s why early notification to people with disabilities is key, she said. And in the Eaton Fire, those alerts came too late for west Altadena, which is where all but one of the 18 deaths in the fire occurred. People with disabilities require more time to evacuate. They may have specialized medical equipment, and they frequently need to be taken somewhere that can support their needs — designated evacuation shelters, such as a high school gym or a community center, sometimes cannot.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">Three Deputies Killed In Explosion At LA Sheriff’s Department Training Facility\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>An explosion at a Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department training facility in East L.A. on Friday \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/fatalities-reported-at-lasd-training-facility-in-east-la-after-possible-explosion\">left three veteran deputies dead.\u003c/a> L.A.

Since 2022, it’s provided $88.5 million to California food banks and tribal governments. It aims to strengthen local food systems worsened by the pandemic, especially in rural areas like the Hoopa Valley where nearly 30% of residents live in poverty. Tribal member Allie Hostler, who runs the local program, says it benefits both seniors and farmers. “For our local farmers, it meant market stability. It meant being able to sell every tomato that you grow,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in March, the Trump administration \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/news/2025/03/10/usda-cancels-local-food-purchasing-for-schools-food-banks-00222796?ref=levelman.com\">cancelled the program\u003c/a>, leaving tribes without a valuable safety net. Even before the pandemic, the Hoopa Valley tribe was aware of the dangers of relying too much on outside food sources. In 2015, the area was classified as a food desert after its only grocery store closed down. Today, the tribe runs its own market, but much of the food is still trucked in from Central Valley farms. Hostler had hoped LFPA would encourage local farmers to scale up enough to eventually supply the grocery store themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"routes-Site-routes-Post-Title-__Title__title\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12047834/judge-orders-trump-administration-to-halt-indiscriminate-immigration-stops-arrests-in-california\">\u003cstrong>Judge Orders Trump Administration To Halt Indiscriminate Immigration Stops, Arrests\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>A federal judge on Friday ordered the Trump administration to halt indiscriminate immigration stops and arrests in seven California counties, including Los Angeles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://apnews.com/article/los-angeles-lawsuit-trump-administration-immigration-raids-d981e5026af6cf73e8f6600a8ed24bad\">Immigrant advocacy groups filed the lawsuit last week\u003c/a> accusing President Trump’s administration of systematically targeting brown-skinned people in Southern California during its ongoing immigration crackdown.
