California's Cross-Sector Coalition Unites to Affirm Immigrant Contributions
California's Historic Coalition to Support Immigrant Communities
In an unprecedented initiative, California for U.S. (CA4US) has unveiled a statewide coalition that brings together diverse stakeholders from business, labor, and civic organizations, aimed at defending and uplifting immigrant communities across California. This initiative, supported by the California Community Foundation, marks a significant stride in safeguarding the rights and contributions of immigrants, who are a vital component of California’s workforce and cultural landscape.
The Importance of Immigrant Communities
Immigrants constitute one-third of California's labor force, injecting billions of dollars into the economy through consumer spending and tax revenues. They are indispensable to critical sectors such as agriculture, healthcare, hospitality, and technology. The coalition aims to address the ongoing threats to these communities, which are exacerbated by aggressive immigration enforcement tactics including workplace raids and intimidation. These actions have created an atmosphere of fear and anxiety, resulting in workforce shortages and harming local businesses.
