The San Mateo County Board of Supervisors voted 4-1 in favor of an ordinance to restrict cooperation with ICE?Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service? to protect the rights of all county residents, regardless of immigration status.
Both Board President Dave Pine and Board Supervisor David Canepa co-sponsored the ordinance, while Supervisors Noelia Corzo and Warren Slocum supported it, with only Supervisor Ray Mueller opposing.
During the meeting, the Board recognized the efforts of community activists and residents who voiced their concerns and played a pivotal role in bringing this ordinance to fruition.
In that sense, Corzo acknowledged that the vote demonstrated San Mateo County's commitment to ensuring that all residents are treated equally and with respect, regardless of their origin or condition.
