Condemning the Violent Attacks on Law Enforcement Officers and Military Servicemembers, and the Destruction of Personal Property in Los Angeles, California.
This resolution addresses violent riots that erupted in Los Angeles following federal immigration enforcement operations, resulting in vandalism of federal property, assaults on law enforcement, and widespread destruction including looting and arson. It asserts that sanctuary city policies , adopted by Los Angeles and championed by local officials, undermine federal immigration enforcement and contribute to the erosion of public order and safety. The resolution notes that President Trump deployed National Guard troops to restore order, a move opposed by Governor Gavin Newsom and Mayor Karen Bass, who are accused of obstructing federal efforts. Consequently, the House of Representatives condemns Governor Newsom and Mayor Bass for their actions and the continuation of unlawful sanctuary policies.
