Fox News
San Diego’s board of supervisors approved a plan Tuesday to provide cost-free attorneys to illegal immigrants facing deportation – even as state and federal officials are scaling down COVID-19 testing on migrants.
The one-year pilot program will cost taxpayers $5 million and is reportedly the first of its kind implemented in a county that sits on the U.S.-Mexico border. The five-member panel approved the move in a 3-2 vote along ideological lines.More Related News
