"County Supervisor Cindy Chavez said that the partnership comes with a higher level of accountability that, frankly, none of the nonprofit partners seems to want."

It makes you wonder who is really benefitting.

It makes my head spin to see county officials spending taxpayer money on fugitives from justice. Shouldn't we be able to vote on this?

@jamesp,
WE may not be able to vote on these choices the council is making, but we can definitely make our votes count when they're up for re-election!

Los Alamitos may give us hope. There are many in this state who are tired of the law breaking and corruption.

When the perfume of taxpayer funds fills the air, the non-profits proliferate, grow like mushrooms after the rain. I said it before, there are a lot of people making a nice living off of the misery of others. Of course the non-profits don't like accountability because most of the money goes toward administration NOT the cause.
Cindy Chavez is simply another "public servant" who needs to be removed, let her get a job where her performance can be measured.

It is not the "immigrant community" but the "illegal immigrant community" that these local politicians are trying to aide and abet. They should have limited the help to DACA immigrants who at least have an argument for staying.

I didn't know what Los Alamitos was, just looked it up , very interesting. Finally, people are starting to stand up and push back, long overdue but very glad to see it happening.

The title of this article is not correct..it should read:

"Nonprofits scramble to get legal aid to illegal aliens"

Words still have meanings and it would be nice if this filthy rag of a paper used the correct ones.
