Capitol Weekly's Conference on Immigration

California stands at odds with Federal immigration laws and policies. As the Trump administration ramps up ICE activity and seeks to build a wall between Mexico and the United States, lawmakers are offering resistance and opposition at every turn, most recently with the passage of SB54, the California Sanctuary State Bill. What happens when the most-populous state in the US takes on the Feds in one of the hot-button issues of the day?

A CONFERENCE ON IMMIGRATION will be held from 9:15AM - 3:15PM, Thursday November 9, 2017 at the Sacramento Historic Masonic Temple, Grand Ballroom, 1123 J Street, Sacramento, CA 95814.

Regular registration rate is $199. Registration includes lunch and all conference materials. For information regarding registration, including fee waivers, contact Kathy Brown, 916 444 7665 or [email protected].

Capitol Weekly's Conference on Immigration will feature four panels examining the current Immigration debate:

Labor and the Economy: From farmworkers to highly-skilled technology experts, immigrants play a huge role in the California economy. We'll look at the numbers, benefits and costs of immigration.

Sanctuary: California's new Sanctuary State bill expands protections that already existed in many California cities. What are the real-world impacts of this and other Sanctuary laws?

The Impact on Families and Communities: What impact are travel bans, changes to DACA, stepped up ICE raids and other Trump administration policies having on immigrants and their communities?

Look Ahead: The immigration debate around Proposition 187 profoundly changed California; what will be the ultimate impact of the Trump administration's policies - and the state's reaction to them?

Confirmed speakers include:

Chiqui Cartagena, Univision Jennie Pasquarella, ACLU of Southern California Dan Morain, Sacramento Bee Sandra Diaz, SEIU Ted Lempert, Chidren Now Hector Barajas, Merino, Barajas & Allen Rob Sanger, California Manufacturers and Technology Association Elizabeth Aguilera, CALmatters Peter Leroe-Muñoz, Silicon Valley Leadership Group Jason Resnick, Western Growers Association Arnoldo Torres, Torres and Torres Holly Cooper, UC Davis School of Law Mike Madrid, GrassrootsLab Rich Ehisen, State Net Capitol Reports
