Gov. Newsom, state, Bay Area officials speak out against new immigration rule

Gov. Gavin Newsom and an array of Bay Area officials blasted a new rule by President Donald Trump’s administration that will make it harder for low-income legal immigrants to extend their stays or seek permanent residency.

“This is a reckless policy that targets the health and well-being of immigrant families and communities of color, with widespread implications for our state’s health care, housing and affordability,” Newsom said.
