L.A. Mayor: I’m Concerned About National and International Anti-Immigrant Rhetoric

GARCETTI: "I mean, we’re definitely a nation of immigrants. My city is a city of immigrants; 62 percent of our population are immigrants or the children of immigrants. And I think it’s been one of the strong parts of how our economy has always prospered on top of the Supreme Court decision that just came down. Cities are struggling. You know, we can’t be partisan. We have to solve problems, whether it’s integrating citizens and immigrants into the daily life, whether it’s finding jobs, dealing with climate change. I’m concerned that there’s this anti-immigrant rhetoric not just nationally but internationally, and I think that has to be solved with something comprehensive in this country and I hope we can."
