Feeling appreciative of the efforts of these students and writers...

"Over the past couple months, Chapman students have investigated what cities in Orange County have done in response to large-scale immigration crackdown that ramped up last June, filing public records with each of the 34 cities to see what they implemented.

Anaheim, Santa Ana, Costa Mesa and Irvine have provided informational resources on their websites, and launched funds to either help impacted immigrant families with legal support or to help them pay bills.

Anaheim is the only city in Orange County to post detailed daily updates on immigration enforcement actions in the city, while Santa Ana remains the only sanctuary city in the county.

Garden Grove, Mission Viejo, Buena Park, Fullerton and Stanton have solely provided informational resources.

Huntington Beach has firmly supported immigration enforcement, declaring the city a “non-sanctuary city” and saying they will help ICE if they come to town.

The remaining 24 cities have done nothing official in the past year."
