Violence and looting undermines our focus to protect families and leads to chaos. Don’t weaken the movement. Damage to our city will not be tolerated and individuals will be prosecuted.

Los Angeles is taking action. This unprecedented natural disaster requires an unprecedented response. My new Executive Order will clear the way for Angelenos to rapidly rebuild the homes they lost and lays the foundation for businesses to plan their rebuild.

This is Los Angeles. We are a city of labor, of business, of faith. We are a city of believers. We are a city of dreamers. We will ALWAYS stand together.

On Saturday, the President posted a message about what a great job the National Guard did in L.A. They didn’t even get here until Sunday. This entire effort is solely to cause chaos and the people of Los Angeles — and our troops — don’t deserve it.

Los Angeles is united in our rejection of the Trump Administration’s trampling of our Constitution. We are taking this Administration to court to stop the raids terrorizing our communities and violating our rights. Enough is enough.

We must not normalize what the Trump Administration is doing to cities across America. It’s wrong. It’s unconstitutional. We will not stand for it.

Today is the first day of school and we are having to fight to protect our kids from the federal government. Remember — Los Angeles is a test case. What happens here could happen anywhere in the country. We must stand united.

Twice now federal courts have ruled against the White House's unconstitutional immigration raids. The targeting of Angelenos working at fruit stands and car washes must end. This is un-American. We will never accept these tactics as a new normal.

Six years ago, we lost my dear friend and colleague, Congressman John Lewis. I had the privilege of serving alongside John in Congress and witnessed firsthand the humility, courage, and moral clarity that defined his life. He never stopped believing that ordinary people could build a more just America. Los Angeles was honored to welcome him many times, and his message of justice and love continues to inspire our city. In South L.A., he reminded us that the fight for justice begins in our own communities. Six years after his passing, his example continues to guide us as we work to build a city and a country where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

This is footage from today in MacArthur Park. Minutes before, there were more than 20 kids playing — then, the MILITARY comes through. The SECOND I heard about this, I went to the park to speak to the person in charge to tell them it needed to end NOW. Absolutely outrageous.

I’ve seen the devastation firsthand. These fires across our region have changed lives forever. The days ahead will be challenging but we WILL get through this crisis, together. Thank you to all the first responders who are working day and night doing everything possible to protect Los Angeles.

Climate change is making our water supply less reliable. So we’re innovating to source more of right here in L.A. The goal is simple: more of L.A.’s water should come from L.A., making us less dependent on imported water from hundreds of miles away and more resilient to drought. We’re taking bold climate action to source 70% of our water locally by 2035 and build a more sustainable Los Angeles.

I am not waiting for private corporations to do the right thing. I am using the power of government to deliver real support directly to Boyle Heights and making sure residents have the resources they need, where and when they need them.

Since the raids began, over 170 American citizens have been detained by federal agents without warrants, without probable cause, and without due process. Let that sink in: 170 U.S. citizens, unlawfully detained in our own country.

Let’s be clear: Immigrants are the backbone of Los Angeles. Targeting this community doesn’t just tear families apart — its a blow to our economy. This needs to end now.

The deployment of the National Guard to Los Angeles has been a chaotic escalation. The City will remain focused on protecting all who call L.A. home.

Los Angeles is the entertainment capital of the world, and we are committed to making it easier for filmmakers to create right here in the city where the industry was born. This pilot program restores filmmaker access to one of our city’s most iconic landmarks through a thoughtful framework that supports production, protects surrounding neighborhoods, and creates good-paying jobs for Angelenos.

There are entire sectors of the economy in Los Angeles that depend on immigrant labor. This administration is waging a war against our own economy.

Stop the raids. There is a real fear in Los Angeles right now. Parents, workers, grandparents, young people scared to go about their daily lives. We are a city of immigrants. Washington is attacking our people, our neighborhoods and our economy.

As a result of immigration raids, parents are afraid to take their kids to school, workers are unsure if they should go to work tomorrow, and young people are worried about their future. That does not make L.A. safer. We are strong. We are resilient. We are in this together.
