As Trump Targets Schools for Deportation Sweeps, Undocumented UC Berkeley Students Call For More Support

from KQED's The California Report · host KQED

President Trump says he will not limit the scope of his deportation efforts, going so far as to say schools across the country will also be targeted in sweeps and raids by Immigrations and Customs Enforcement agents. That looming threat has undocumented students attending UC Berkeley calling on the university to issue a strong statement of support for them. Santa Clara County's District Attorney is moving forward with pressing charges against a dozen students that took part in last year's on-campus pro-Palestinian protests, where demonstrators occupied the office of the campus resident. The Santa Clara DA alleges that the students are responsible  for thousands of dollars in damages, and are facing felony vandalism and trespassing related charges. The Trump Administration's trade war with China is heating up, and that may not bode well for California's agriculture businesses in the Central Valley. Learn more about your ad choices.
