Today's episode is audio from last weeks event: "Lean In: A Conversation About Immigration," a cosponsored, free event between VOXOLOGY and World Relief. Mike Erre and Matthew Soerens delve into the church's role and posture on immigration issues, highlighting their collaboration with World Relief. They discuss the importance of moving beyond policy debates to embrace a posture of empathy and advocacy for immigrant and refugee communities. Through events like "Lean In," they aim to foster conversations that address biblical, legal, and social realities, encouraging listeners to engage actively and compassionately. Join them as they explore how the church can stand in solidarity with marginalized communities and make a meaningful impact. How should the Church respond? What are the actual laws and how are they being violated? From the teachings of Jesus to the Old Testament's calls to care for the foreigner, this episode navigates how Christians can approach this complex issue with compassion and cruciformity. They dive into the legal realities of immigration, the stories of refugees and asylum seekers, and the moral and theological responsibilities of the church. With a focus on justice, faith and politics, and the unity of the global church, this dialogue encourages empathy, critical thinking, and gospel-centered action. Join the discussion as the hosts address questions like: How does faith inform our view of immigration? What does it mean to embody love and justice as followers of Jesus? Whether you're wrestling with these topics or seeking to better understand the role of the church in cultural issues, this episode offers depth, reflection, and hope.

Martha Arevalo, executive director of the Central American Resource Center (CARECEN) in Los Angeles, described an atmosphere of fear and chaos as federal authorities escalate enforcement in immigrant communities. Speaking on Everyday Injustice, she said residents are facing armored vehicles, masked officers, and indiscriminate detentions that sweep up people regardless of their immigration status. Arevalo warned that Los Angeles has become a “testing ground” for aggressive tactics that could soon spread nationwide. “What we're seeing is an administration that is not following the law,” she said, pointing to raids where individuals are detained without warrants, dialogue, or regard for constitutional protections. She emphasized that those being targeted include not only undocumented individuals but also lawful residents, DACA recipients, and even U.S. citizens. “If you look Latino, if you look like you could be an immigrant, they might get you,” she said. The impact has rippled across the city, leaving schools half-empty, businesses deserted, and families uncertain about the whereabouts of loved ones. Despite the escalating crisis, Arevalo said her organization remains committed to defending immigrant rights through legal services, rapid response, and advocacy. She stressed that the broader public should see this not only as an immigrant issue but as a test of democracy itself: “Today is this community in Los Angeles and the immigrant community. Tomorrow it could be you”.

In today's episode of the AgNet News Hour, we welcomed a powerful voice in California agriculture—John Duarte of Duarte Nursery. As a nursery innovator, farmer, and former congressman, Duarte brings unmatched insight and experience to the table. He joined Nick Papagni and Josh McGill for a candid, in-depth discussion about the future of farming, the role of innovation, and the critical issues facing growers across California. The episode began with Duarte sharing the inspiring history of Duarte Nursery, which grew from humble beginnings into one of the most respected nurseries in the world. He described how his family pioneered virus-free grapevines and later revolutionized almond tree production with containerized trees and clonal rootstocks—innovations that have become industry standards. But it wasn't just a story of business success. Duarte delved into the broader challenges plaguing California agriculture today: water shortages, overregulation, labor struggles, and misguided energy policy. He connected these issues to the health and well-being of rural communities, particularly in the Central Valley, where working families face rising costs, fewer job opportunities, and worsening health outcomes due to environmental mismanagement. Duarte didn't stop at identifying the problems—he offered solutions. He shared his own draft legislation for comprehensive immigration reform and called for scalable guest worker programs, protections for DACA recipients, and a serious commitment to border security. His plan balances practicality with compassion, aiming to stabilize the agricultural workforce while respecting human dignity and economic need. He also emphasized the need for bipartisan cooperation, urging politicians to prioritize common sense over ideology. From advocating for mechanization in nut crops to proposing a reallocation of funds from failed projects like the bullet train to essential water infrastructure, Duarte's message was clear: it's time for California to return to abundance, opportunity, and sensible policy. This episode is a must-listen for anyone who cares about the future of California farming and the communities it supports.

In this inspiring episode of American Potential, host David From, Regional Vice President at Americans for Prosperity, sits down with entrepreneur and builder Justin Mannina—CEO of Rexcon Enterprises, Vice President of JB Pinnacle Group, and Co‑founder of My Truck Boss. Justin opens up about his journey from working grueling hours on construction sites to walking away from a secure six‑figure job to launch multiple successful companies. He shares the tough early years—when he and his partner didn't pay themselves for five straight years—as well as the milestone moment of building America's largest carbon-capture plant and major infrastructure projects in Texas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma. But this episode isn't just about concrete and highways—it's about people. Justin discusses his passion for hiring high school graduates, giving second chances to formerly incarcerated individuals, and defending hardworking DACA recipients who have become cornerstone team members. He also reveals how his love for problem-solving led him to co-create an app that brings real-time tracking and efficiency to dirt-hauling operations still buried in paperwork. Justin's story is a modern blueprint for how grit, mentorship, and faith in people can create opportunity—not just for individuals, but for entire communities. Whether you're a parent questioning the traditional college path, a business leader seeking to empower your team, or simply someone who believes in the power of second chances, this episode is a must-hear.
SACRAMENTO, CA – Today, Assemblywoman Celeste Rodriguez (D-San Fernando) introduces her first bill in the 2025-26 legislative session, AB 495 – The Family Safety Plan Act, which will provide support to immigrant and mixed-status families by ensuring safety plans are in place in the event of immigration enforcement actions.“The threats from the federal administration have led to fear in many communities including mine,” said Assemblywoman Celeste Rodriguez. “We must do everything we can to safeguard families from separation and ensure children are supported. AB 495 is a critical tool that will preserve California's families.”Forty-five percent of California children have at least one immigrant parent. An estimated 1 million children in California have at least one undocumented parent, and approximately 133,000 children in California public schools are undocumented. This bill protects children in immigrant families by ensuring that families have safety plans in place in case of immigration enforcement actions.Assemblywoman Rodriguez represents the 43rd Assembly District, which includes the City of San Fernando and communities across the Northeast San Fernando Valley, including Arleta, Sun Valley, Sylmar, Pacoima, Panorama City, North Hollywood, Lake View Terrace, Valley Glen, Mission Hills and North Hills.
In the latest episode of the Parsing Immigration Policy podcast, host and the Center's executive director Mark Krikorian sits down with Gaby Pacheco, an Ecuador-born “Dreamer” and President and CEO of TheDream.US.Krikorian, a long-time critic of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA), and Pacheco, now an American citizen, discuss the history and politics of the Dream Act and DACA.Opportunity Lost: Despite holding 60 Senate seats during the first year of the Obama administration, Democrats chose not to move a legislative amnesty for Dreamers – illegal aliens who entered the United States at a young age.What is DACA?: Having failed to pass an amnesty for Dreamers, President Obama bypassed Congress in 2012 and through executive action created DACA, which provides some of the benefits of the Dream Act, including protection from deportation and employment authorization, to certain illegal aliens who entered the U.S. before age 16. Its legality has been the subject of litigation.Origins of the Idea for DACA: Pacheco recounts how, having failed to pass the Dream Act through Congress, the administrative approach of DACA was inspired by a 2003 private bill by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) and the Temporary Protected Status (TPS) program, which provides “temporary” protection from deportation and work authorization eligibility for nationals in the U.S. of countries that have experienced natural disaster or civil strife.Trump's 2018 offer: The Trump administration proposed a legislative package that would have given proper legal status to DACA recipients and other DACA-eligible illegal immigrants, covering perhaps as many as 2 million people, in exchange for key reforms in the legal immigration system. It failed in the House.Looking ahead: Will Congress address DACA?HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestGaby Pacheco is the President and CEO of TheDream.US.RelatedTheDream.USIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

John discusses Trump telling Texas Republicans to redraw their state congressional districts and make it so 5 Democratic seats vanish into a gerrymandered abyss. He also talks about House Republicans continuing to block efforts by democrats to force the release of files related to Jeffrey Epstein. Then, he speaks with Professor Corey Brettschneider and they analyze the Trump administration's latest alarming moves, including mass firings at critical federal agencies like Education and State, and Trump's controversial threats to remove the Federal Reserve Chair. And finally, he interviews Cristina Jiménez. She's an award-winning community organizer and a leading voice in movements for social justice. She is Co-Founder and former Executive Director of United We Dream, the largest immigrant youth-led organization in the country. She came to the U.S from Ecuador in 1998 and grew up undocumented in Queens, N.Y. Cristina is a veteran organizer who helped lead the fight for DACA and resist family separation. Her new book, Dreaming of Home, was called “part memoir, part guide for community organizing” by The Washington Post.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Immigration. It's a topic that ignites passion, confusion, and often division. These days, the word “immigrant” can split a room in half and not always politely.

On this season of Other People's Pockets, we're experimenting with a new angle for some of the episodes: How is the Trump administration affecting people's personal finances?Today I'm featuring Daishi Miguel-Tanaka, an immigrants' rights advocate based in Washington, D.C. Daishi was born in Japan to a Japanese father and a Filipina mother. When he was 6, he and his family moved to the U.S. with a plan to obtain U.S. citizenship through Daishi's grandfather, a U.S. citizen. But when his grandfather died, that path to citizenship vanished, and Daishi and his family remained in the U.S. as undocumented immigrants.Since he was a teenager, Daishi has been protected from deportation because he is a recipient of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). He spoke about how DACA has afforded him a financial life in the U.S., and what the Trump administration means for how he's thinking about his future and his money.Follow Maya Lau:Instagram: @itsmayamoneyTikTok: @itsmayamoneyEmail: otherpeoplespockets@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

À La Calera, une municipalité montagneuse près de Bogotá, les habitants s'opposent à Coca-Cola, qui exploite sept sources d'eau via sa filiale Indega. En pleine sécheresse historique causée par El Niño, les habitants ont subi des coupures d'eau pendant près d'un an, tandis que l'usine de mise en bouteille continuait son activité. C'est un reportage d'Eve-Marie Detoeuf. L'indignation est d'autant plus grande que la concession d'exploitation d'Indega, arrivée à échéance en décembre, pourrait être renouvelée malgré les contestations. Coca-Cola affirme puiser l'eau dans les nappes souterraines, mais une hydrologue critique sévèrement l'étude fournie par la multinationale, la jugeant biaisée et contradictoire. La situation divise désormais les habitants de La Calera. Tandis que certains défendent l'entreprise pour les emplois supposément créés, d'autres dénoncent une exploitation injuste d'une ressource vitale. Des artistes, des écologistes, et des villageois expriment leur tristesse face aux tensions causées par Coca-Cola. Ils sont pessimistes quant à une décision des autorités régionales, soupçonnées de favoritisme et de corruption. En 2024, Coca-Cola n'aurait payé que l'équivalent de 2 500 euros de redevance pour cette ressource précieuse, alimentant un sentiment d'injustice grandissant. Les gangs haïtiens sanctionnés par l'ONU Les Nations unies ont imposé des sanctions contre les coalitions de gangs haïtiens Viv Ansanm et Gran Grif, quelques semaines après leur désignation comme organisations terroristes par les États-Unis. C'est un des sujets abordés ce jeudi (10 juillet 2025) avec le rédacteur en chef du Nouvelliste, Frantz Duval. Ces sanctions permettent notamment à Interpol de lancer des poursuites internationales, peut-on lire dans le Nouvelliste. Elles interviennent dans un contexte d'escalade de la violence en Haïti, où les gangs multiplient les attaques armées, s'étendent au-delà de Port-au-Prince, et plongent le pays dans une crise humanitaire sans précédent. Aux États-Unis, des milliers de fonctionnaires fédéraux vivent dans la peur d'un licenciement massif Mardi dernier, la Cour suprême a validé le vaste plan de réorganisation de l'administration Trump, ouvrant la voie à des suppressions de postes. Selon Politico, ce jugement a profondément ébranlé des agents jusque-là convaincus d'être protégés par le droit de la fonction publique et les syndicats. « Tous mes amis se sont résignés au pire », confie un employé au ministère du logement. À l'agence de protection de l'environnement, certains se terrent au sous-sol pour fuir la tension. Déjà 3 000 départs volontaires ou retraites anticipées. Des services comme la justice environnementale sont démantelés. « Le gouvernement abandonne les communautés les plus polluées », dénonce un agent. Au ministère du Logement, les couloirs sont devenus silencieux, « comme après un décès ». La peur est encore plus vive au Département d'État : dans des groupes Signal, diplomates et agents s'inquiètent pour leur avenir, la sécurité nationale, et dénoncent une trahison. Des salles de réunion ont été réservées pour ce vendredi, jour probable des annonces officielles. Les conséquences de la taxe douanière de 50% sur les produits brésiliens décidée par Donald Trump Pour le site d'information G1, Donald Trump répète la formule du harcèlement et des représailles qu'il utilise contre ses adversaires politiques. « Cette fois, cependant, les échanges économiques ne peuvent pas servir de prétexte car les États-Unis ont un rare excédent commercial avec le Brésil ». Dans Carta Capital, un ancien ambassadeur brésilien s'insurge : il parle d'ingérence révoltante, de brutalité diplomatique, et estime que les États-Unis sont en train de devenir un adversaire du Brésil — une rupture avec deux siècles de relations diplomatiques. Il appelle à une réaction forte de la société civile brésilienne, et suggère au gouvernement Lula d'intensifier ses contacts avec les démocrates américains. L'embarras des bolsonaristes Selon Folha de Sao Paulo, plusieurs proches de l'ex-président reconnaissent, en privé, que cette décision « pose un vrai problème politique ». Officiellement, ils continuent de soutenir Donald Trump et tentent de rejeter la responsabilité de la mesure douanière sur le président Lula. C'est le cas de Tarcísio de Freitas ou Romeu Zema — deux candidats potentiels pour la prochaine élection présidentielle de 2026. Ils affirment que c'est le rapprochement de Lula avec la Chine, la Russie, l'Iran, Cuba ou encore le Venezuela qui aurait déclenché la réaction de Donald Trump. Washington à la recherche d'une stratégie à l'égard du Venezuela C'est à lire dans le New York Times. D'un côté, le secrétaire d'État Marco Rubio a tenté un accord avec Caracas : libérer des prisonniers politiques en échange du renvoi de 250 migrants vénézuéliens détenus au Salvador. Mais ces négociations ont été court-circuitées par… l'émissaire spécial de Donald Trump pour le Venezuela lui-même, Richard Grenell. Lui proposait tout autre chose : autoriser l'entreprise Chevron à reprendre ses activités pétrolières au Venezuela. Une offre plus alléchante pour le président Nicolas Maduro. Mais finalement, aucun accord n'a été conclu, et les 250 migrants vénézuéliens sont toujours détenus dans une prison de haute sécurité au Salvador. Le New York Times révèle que malgré ses déclarations, la Maison Blanche garde le contrôle sur ces détenus car ils sont utilisés comme monnaie d'échange. Premiers témoignages sur les conditions de détention au sein du «Alligator Alcatraz» Le Miami Herald publie un témoignage glaçant : un migrant mexicain, pourtant protégé par le programme DACA, car il est venu aux États-Unis lorsqu'il était encore mineur, s'est retrouvé enfermé dans le centre de détention situé en plein cœur des Everglades, en Floride. Il a été arrêté après un simple contrôle routier. Son avocat affirme ne pas connaître les raisons de sa détention. Et son client dénonce des conditions inhumaines : nourriture avariée, toilettes bouchées, chaleur étouffante sans climatisation, moustiques en pagaille, et interdiction de se doucher pendant quatre jours. Les autorités de Floride, elles, démentent en bloc : « des accusations totalement fausses », disent-elles. Mais l'affaire commence à faire grand bruit. Journal de la 1re En Martinique, la lutte contre le décrochage scolaire.

In this episode, we break down the CMS Final Rule for the 2025 Marketplace and what it means for agents, insurers, and consumers. Key highlights include: Past-due premium enforcement: Carriers may require payment of prior premiums before activating new coverage, with flexibility for state-specific rules. Standardized Open Enrollment: → 2026: Nov 1 – Jan 15 → 2027 and beyond: Federal deadline of Dec 15 Tighter eligibility verification: 75% of applications will be randomly selected for verification. DACA exclusion: DACA recipients will no longer be eligible for Marketplace coverage.

In this episode, I'm joined by Rebeca Gonzalez — a brilliant and compassionate immigration attorney, CSUB alum, and graduate of Loyola Law School. Born and raised in the Central Valley, Rebeca is the founder of Rebeca Gonzalez Law, APC, where she has become a fierce advocate for immigrant families across California and beyond. Her work has focused on protecting asylum seekers, DACA recipients, and people at risk of detention or deportation — helping them navigate a system that often feels stacked against them.With the recent ICE raids in Los Angeles creating waves of fear, confusion, and emotional distress in our communities, I knew Rebeca was the perfect person to break down what's happening. We'll be talking about the legal landscape, what rights immigrants have right now, and how all of this ties into mental health, trauma, and systemic injustice.
Immigration in the U.S. is more than headlines and border walls — it's a complex system that touches millions of lives, often in invisible ways. In this episode of We Vote Too, we break down what's going on: from visa categories and green card backlogs to DACA, asylum, and undocumented status.We explain how these systems work (and don't), what's changed under recent federal crackdowns, and why immigration raids — like the ones unfolding in cities like Los Angeles — are just the tip of a much deeper policy iceberg.Our guest, human rights and immigration attorney Yannick Gil, helps us understand how enforcement priorities have shifted, the impact on communities, and what legal protections remain in place.Most importantly, we explore how these policies affect all of us — not just immigrants — and share tangible ways you can support families, combat misinformation, and advocate for meaningful reform.Whether you're brand new to this issue or deep in the work, this is your immigration explainer, action guide, and human story — all in one.⏱️ Episode Timestamps00:00 – Legal disclosure (gotta keep it official)00:33 – Intro music (get in the vibe)00:48 – Trump's War on Immigration04:31 – Interview begins with Yannick Gil: The State of Immigration05:55 – What's the difference between a refugee, an asylum seeker, someone protected by DACA, and someone here on a visa?11:30 – The benefits of a robust immigrant population14:30 – What does come here "the right way" mean?
