The Pasadena-based immigration lawyer lived through the chaos from the first Trump term. She remembers \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.npr.org/2022/08/11/1116917364/how-the-trump-white-house-misled-the-world-about-its-family-separation-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>family separation\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, the \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.aclu-wa.org/timeline-muslim-ban/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>Muslim travel ban\u003c/u>\u003c/a> and \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2019/09/26/us/politics/trump-refugees.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>attacks on refugee and asylum programs\u003c/u>\u003c/a>. Yet, Tolchin and other lawyers and advocates were still surprised at the speed and sophistication of the current administration’s mass deportation campaign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really much worse than I even contemplated it would be at the beginning of the year,” she said. The Trump administration has \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/border-immigration/2025/04/16/international-students-in-san-diego-caught-up-in-mass-revocation-of-student-visas\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>stripped international students of their visas\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, deported people to \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.hrw.org/report/2025/11/12/you-have-arrived-in-hell/torture-and-other-abuses-against-venezuelans-in-el\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>one of the most dangerous prisons\u003c/u>\u003c/a> in the world, and launched \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.npr.org/2025/09/08/nx-s1-5534338/ice-chicago-boston-immigration-raids\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>violent immigration sweeps in American cities\u003c/u>\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Besides the public-facing tactics, the administration has also made a series of quiet legal maneuvers that have made it much more difficult for immigrants to fight deportation cases. These efforts include: Funneling people into fast-track deportation programs, making it harder for immigrants to hire lawyers and making it almost impossible for detainees to get out on bond.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But after being knocked on their heels in the early months of Trump’s new term, lawyers nationwide are now banding together and developing their own legal strategies. “We need warriors, we need people to help us in this fight,” Tolchin said. Chief among them are writ of habeas corpus petitions — federal lawsuits that challenge illegal and indefinite detentions. Collectively, they have filed more than 4,000 habeas petitions as last-ditch efforts to get their clients released from immigration detention centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Filing a habeas petition is unfamiliar for many attorneys. To help bridge the knowledge gap, immigration lawyers are turning to informal networks for help. Some organizations, like the American Immigration Lawyers Association, have even hosted formal workshops where lawyers can network and get a crash-course in filing habeas petitions.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kazu.org/kazu-news/2025-11-21/central-coast-counties-want-to-regulate-battery-energy-storage-why-is-it-taking-so-long\">\u003cstrong>Why Regulating Battery Energy Storage Is Taking So Long On The Central Coast\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Santa Cruz County took a small step last week toward developing a policy to regulate battery energy storage systems (BESS).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At almost the same time, Monterey County supervisors were having a similar conversation. “We just can’t have somebody come in here while we don’t have an ordinance,” said District 2 Supervisor Glenn Church, during a Nov. 18 meeting. “We gotta develop an ordinance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The heart of the issue for both counties is the idea of local control. Currently, companies can apply with the state for permits to build and run a BESS. They don’t have to go through the county. But, if counties have ordinances governing BESS facilities, a company can instead choose to go the local route. That could mean more community support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s the challenge—the state’s climate goals demand a lot more renewable energy storage, fast. Local government is often slow. In Santa Cruz County, they were deciding whether to start a year-long process to develop an ordinance. Even that was delayed. In Monterey County, they were weighing whether to enact a temporary moratorium on new BESS facilities. That didn’t happen either.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Congressional Hearing Examines Effects Of Immigration Enforcement In Southern California\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Long Beach, convened a congressional hearing in downtown Los Angeles on Monday to gather testimony about alleged violations by federal immigration agents, whom they accuse of improperly detaining immigrants and citizens alike, often without probable cause or warrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hearing included testimony from elected officials, experts and residents who have been directly impacted by the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Andrea Velez is a U.S. citizen who was detained by ICE agents while on her way to work in June. “Terrified, I used my work bag as a shield, but he slammed me into the sidewalk and accused me of interfering,” she said. “When I asked for his badge or a warrant, he refused and handcuffed me. They didn’t believe I was a U.S. citizen or bother to check my ID. I spent most of that first day shackled in a van watching others arrive, distraught and taken against their will.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats on the House Committee on Oversight also \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/politics/house-democrats-launch-tracking-system-for-immigration\">launched a new tracking system\u003c/a> to document possible misconduct and abuse during federal immigration enforcement operations under the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\n",

Chief among them are writ of habeas corpus petitions — federal lawsuits that challenge illegal and indefinite detentions. Collectively, they have filed more than 4,000 habeas petitions as last-ditch efforts to get their clients released from immigration detention centers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

To help bridge the knowledge gap, immigration lawyers are turning to informal networks for help. Some organizations, like the American Immigration Lawyers Association, have even hosted formal workshops where lawyers can network and get a crash-course in filing habeas petitions.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca href=\"https://www.kazu.org/kazu-news/2025-11-21/central-coast-counties-want-to-regulate-battery-energy-storage-why-is-it-taking-so-long\">\u003cstrong>Why Regulating Battery Energy Storage Is Taking So Long On The Central Coast\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Santa Cruz County took a small step last week toward developing a policy to regulate battery energy storage systems (BESS).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At almost the same time, Monterey County supervisors were having a similar conversation. “We just can’t have somebody come in here while we don’t have an ordinance,” said District 2 Supervisor Glenn Church, during a Nov. 18 meeting. “We gotta develop an ordinance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The heart of the issue for both counties is the idea of local control. Currently, companies can apply with the state for permits to build and run a BESS. They don’t have to go through the county. But, if counties have ordinances governing BESS facilities, a company can instead choose to go the local route. That could mean more community support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s the challenge—the state’s climate goals demand a lot more renewable energy storage, fast. Local government is often slow. In Santa Cruz County, they were deciding whether to start a year-long process to develop an ordinance. Even that was delayed. In Monterey County, they were weighing whether to enact a temporary moratorium on new BESS facilities. That didn’t happen either.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Congressional Hearing Examines Effects Of Immigration Enforcement In Southern California\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and Rep. Robert Garcia, D-Long Beach, convened a congressional hearing in downtown Los Angeles on Monday to gather testimony about alleged violations by federal immigration agents, whom they accuse of improperly detaining immigrants and citizens alike, often without probable cause or warrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hearing included testimony from elected officials, experts and residents who have been directly impacted by the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown. Andrea Velez is a U.S. citizen who was detained by ICE agents while on her way to work in June. “Terrified, I used my work bag as a shield, but he slammed me into the sidewalk and accused me of interfering,” she said. “When I asked for his badge or a warrant, he refused and handcuffed me. They didn’t believe I was a U.S. citizen or bother to check my ID. I spent most of that first day shackled in a van watching others arrive, distraught and taken against their will.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Democrats on the House Committee on Oversight also \u003ca href=\"https://laist.com/news/politics/house-democrats-launch-tracking-system-for-immigration\">launched a new tracking system\u003c/a> to document possible misconduct and abuse during federal immigration enforcement operations under the Trump administration.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

But it never really let him go. “In Vietnam, it was definitely combat,” he said. “And there was a lot of things in there that we did that we shouldn’t do, or things that I don’t even talk about today.” The retired Army veteran earned three Purple Hearts for his service. But medals didn’t ease the invisible wounds he carried — flashbacks, anger and sleepless nights that would last decades. “You come back with severe PTSD,” he said. “That’s what I have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A psychiatrist at the Department of Veterans Affairs eventually suggested a service dog. That’s how Service met Chance, a yellow Labrador retriever who would become his constant companion. “Initially, you don’t know anything or what you’re going to do,” he said. “You’re coming in, you’re going to train with a dog, but you don’t have any idea what the outcome is.” Service and Chance trained at \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.freedomdogs.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>Freedom Dogs\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, a San Diego nonprofit that pairs specially trained service dogs with veterans and active-duty service members coping with post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injuries. At a training center in Oceanside, veterans practice real-world situations — like going to restaurants and visiting public spaces — with their dogs by their side. For many, it’s the first time they’ve felt safe enough to rejoin the world outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, the organization may soon lose its largest source of funding. “We had a grant this past year for about $247,000. That was 42% of our operating budget,” said Peggy Poore, the nonprofit’s executive director. “So it’s a significant impact.” The grant comes from the Department of Defense, which funds similar service-dog programs across the country. But this year, that funding is stuck in Congress’s annual defense bill negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Freedom Dogs currently supports about 25 veterans and service members. Without new funding, that number could drop by half. “We will receive our final payment in December this year,” Poore said. “And then we’re done.” At a time when more than \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.mentalhealth.va.gov/docs/data-sheets/2024/2024-Annual-Report-Part-2-of-2_508.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>6,000 \u003c/u>\u003c/a>veterans die by suicide each year, Poore said losing this support could be devastating.

But it never really let him go. “In Vietnam, it was definitely combat,” he said. “And there was a lot of things in there that we did that we shouldn’t do, or things that I don’t even talk about today.” The retired Army veteran earned three Purple Hearts for his service. But medals didn’t ease the invisible wounds he carried — flashbacks, anger and sleepless nights that would last decades. “You come back with severe PTSD,” he said. “That’s what I have.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A psychiatrist at the Department of Veterans Affairs eventually suggested a service dog. That’s how Service met Chance, a yellow Labrador retriever who would become his constant companion. “Initially, you don’t know anything or what you’re going to do,” he said. “You’re coming in, you’re going to train with a dog, but you don’t have any idea what the outcome is.” Service and Chance trained at \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.freedomdogs.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>Freedom Dogs\u003c/u>\u003c/a>, a San Diego nonprofit that pairs specially trained service dogs with veterans and active-duty service members coping with post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injuries. At a training center in Oceanside, veterans practice real-world situations — like going to restaurants and visiting public spaces — with their dogs by their side. For many, it’s the first time they’ve felt safe enough to rejoin the world outside.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, the organization may soon lose its largest source of funding. “We had a grant this past year for about $247,000. That was 42% of our operating budget,” said Peggy Poore, the nonprofit’s executive director. “So it’s a significant impact.” The grant comes from the Department of Defense, which funds similar service-dog programs across the country. But this year, that funding is stuck in Congress’s annual defense bill negotiations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Freedom Dogs currently supports about 25 veterans and service members. Without new funding, that number could drop by half. “We will receive our final payment in December this year,” Poore said. “And then we’re done.” At a time when more than \u003ca class=\"Link\" href=\"https://www.mentalhealth.va.gov/docs/data-sheets/2024/2024-Annual-Report-Part-2-of-2_508.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cu>6,000 \u003c/u>\u003c/a>veterans die by suicide each year, Poore said losing this support could be devastating.

John Sauer argued in the filing with the high court that Frimpong’s order puts a “straitjacket” on agents and “threatens to upend immigration officials’ ability to enforce the immigration laws … by hanging the prospect of contempt over every investigative stop of suspected illegal aliens.” Frimpong ruled federal immigration authorities could not rely on four factors for reasonable suspicion: race, ethnicity, language, and location or employment; either solely or in combination.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2 class=\"ArticlePage-headline\">\u003ca href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/border-immigration/2025/08/07/san-diego-roman-catholic-diocese-launches-ministry-to-support-refugees-in-court\">\u003cstrong>San Diego Roman Catholic Diocese Launches Ministry To Support Refugees In Court\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The Roman Catholic Diocese of San Diego has launched a new interfaith ministry to accompany refugees and asylum seekers at immigration court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We can ensure that they’re following due process and, of course, abiding by our basic local public safety and traffic laws.[aside postID=news_12047506 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/07/250609-SEIUProtests-07-BL_qed.jpg']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Shafer:\u003c/strong> One of the things that Lew said was, essentially, “We can’t just sit by and watch our fellow law enforcement agent or officer get hurt.” Are you saying that, actually, “Yes, you can, and you should step aside and let them defend themselves?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fielder:\u003c/strong> According to the department’s own directives, they’re allowed to intervene in any federal immigration actions when it appears reasonably necessary to prevent serious injury to persons, whether or not a crime is actively happening. That also has to be reconciled with our sanctuary city law, where we’re not allowed to assist ICE or agents for routine operations, investigations or raids.

It’s baffling to me that anyone in leadership would equate our protesters with Trump’s armed ICE agents. They should be seen as an extension of Trump himself. They are carrying out his agenda.

He has said that the city will protect immigrants. What would you like to see him do or say that so far he has not?[aside postID=news_12047397 hero='https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2021/07/immigration-protest-1020x680.jpeg']\u003cstrong>Fielder:\u003c/strong> I think he could be doing more. He could be saying more. Every single elected leader in our city has made a public stand to honor our sanctuary city laws. He will not say the word sanctuary. He will not mention Trump. And I don’t think it’s a practice that is actually saving us from any repercussions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are other examples across the country of mayors standing up. For example, Mayor [Michelle] Wu in Boston is filing FOIA requests to try to seek some answers on who exactly ICE is detaining in Boston. The point here is compliance. And by not saying a ton about our sanctuary laws, by not mentioning Trump, I think it just gives them exactly what they want.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here in San Francisco, where we have a large immigrant population, that means that ICE is picking up family, neighbors, friends. These are not people with criminal histories. They are mothers, they’re fathers, they’re sisters and, even at some points, children. And so, SFPD leadership, whoever the next police chief is, has to take this responsibility seriously and take our sanctuary city laws seriously as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Shafer:\u003c/strong> When you came into office, you went out of your way to extend an olive branch to Lurie. Is there still a reservoir of goodwill with the mayor?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Fielder:\u003c/strong> I’m never gonna close my door to people who change their minds. I’m always open to the possibility of people coming around again. I think we’re headed for a new level of prevalence of ICE agents and terror that we haven’t seen before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Primed by NorCal Resist on what the organization calls “accompaniment training,” Maciejewski Cortez helps people with the administrative side of court hearings, including translating, going through paperwork and taking notes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I just want to make sure that they have the best chance at being heard,” Maciejewski Cortez said. “I have perfect English and \u003cem>I\u003c/em> still find some of these forms and terminology to be confusing and complicated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to supporting court logistics, accompaniment volunteers like Maciejewski Cortez also help provide a sense of protection and safety for the asylum seeker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’ve been in a lot of immigration offices around the world, and it’s really scary to go alone,” she said. “I can’t imagine how somebody, who has recently arrived and has lived through a traumatic life experience, [is] trying to navigate this system,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12046555\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1998px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12046555\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/250629-IMMIGRANT-ADVOCATES-MD-3_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1998\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/250629-IMMIGRANT-ADVOCATES-MD-3_qed.jpg 1998w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/250629-IMMIGRANT-ADVOCATES-MD-3_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/06/250629-IMMIGRANT-ADVOCATES-MD-3_qed-1536x1025.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1998px) 100vw, 1998px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Centro Legal de la Raza offices in San Francisco on June 29, 2025. \u003ccite>(Martin do Nascimento/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>‘I don’t know what would have happened to him’\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The idea of accompaniment work grew from faith communities in the 1980s, Gonzalez said.
