locations make a ton of sense. if you look at how the city chose these its base on very high crash rates, high-speed you know, they went out and tested all of these. the cameras will snap photos of rear license plates of vehicles driving 11 miles per hour or more over the posted speed limit. then the registered owner will receive a citation in the mail ranging from 50 to $500 depending on the speed. lindsey says the best way to avoid a fine is to slow down. there's going to be plenty of signs around that show where these by speed cameras are. so this isn't going to be any sort of gotcha experience. and again, this is to change behavior. it's not to make money. sfmta has put up 8 billboards warning drivers of the cameras coming this march saying obey the speed limit. permanent signs will also be placed at 30 major city entrances that say traffic laws in san francisco are photo enforced and crews were seen monday afternoon installing new speed limit signs on gary street speed

>> and it is a rainy day across much of the bay area. so we've got rain drops on the lens in san francisco. many of the bay area camera lenses have raindrops on the right now here you can see behind me, it's sort transamerica. pyramid and one big raindrop. all the rain is coming from the atmospheric river that says sourced all the way down in the hawaiian islands. and that is what is bringing all of the moisture right to the bay area. it's been more of a northern california trajectory. but at times this atmospheric river goes north a little bit. and then we see a

little less rain in the bay area and then it goes south little bit. we see little bit more rain in the bay area. today's a day where it goes north a little bit. so not quite so much rain for us as we're going to see say tomorrow into tuesday. but there's also wind to can think about because the wind gusts are pretty impressive. the death a 31 mile per hour gusts, half moon bay. 32 very gusty in the napa valley and parts of the east bay as well as the south bay. so you can see it dies down little bit as we go through the afternoon only to revive again tomorrow, especially right around 06:15pm, just after sunset. it's gonna be very gusty winds again. so we'll see some rain and some winds really pick up monday night into tuesday and then things die down a little bit come wednesday. flood alerts. oh, yeah. there's a flood advisory in effect from the sierra nevada to the pacific ocean from getting down to the santa cruz county. and that will be in effect until tonight at 10. the concern for the north bay, especially 2 to 4 inches are possible today. future rainfall totals. these are

cumulative starting today all the way through the week. so by tuesday, we'll see almost 3 inches in santa rosa and about 2 and a half in san francisco will add to these totals as we go through time into wednesday and thursday and friday. so off again on again. rain a little bit hit and miss in some spots for the further south you go. the less likely you are to see a whole bunch of rain. this is really a big northern california event. so if you take a look at this image, my goodness, gracious. you wake up to 4 inches of rain, 3 and a half for sacramento. and that would be monday through monday. now for us in the sierra nevada, we need some snow. we need the water because about a 3rd of our water comes from snowpack in the sierra. well, 2 to 3 feet of snow coming up. but for today, the snow level so high is falling as precipitation for the most part. so all in all, we've got wet weather. it's a wet week. keep your umbrella handy. stephanie. thanks so much. kathy. the people of san francisco made a statement this past election season voting in a new mayor and

members to its board of supervisors to tackle concerns over public safety, homelessness and fentanyl. among many other issues. >> joining us live now to discuss is for president rafael mandelman. good to have you back. good to be back, stephanie. so first of all, i think congratulations are in order. you are the 3rd lgbtq+ president of the board of supervisors. the first in over 20 years as a i mean, it's sort of amazing. it's the in middle of my last 2 years on the board of supervisors. >> a nice way to finish crazy times nationally. but locally, it seems like a lot of opportunity. i'm looking forward to it. yeah. you mentioned the last 2 years for you. any plans to resign at any point? well, i don't run again for the board of supervisors will see what opportunities there are for other things. but for now, i gotta i gotta president. i got to preside, ok? yes, yes, absolutely. so let's get to the top of the city. a lot of issues facing at this year. let's start with the topic of public safety. we know that mayor lurie, he's promised to make public safety is number

one priority. so have conversations gone between you and him and the rest of the board. >> so far pretty well. i mean, he's he came out the gate with his fentanyl emergency legislation. you know, many of us had some concerns, but he and his team have been willing to engage with us. they made some changes. they respond some of the issues i'd raised and he now has 6 co-sponsors. it's going to pass. you know, i i think, you know, he's he's approach that in a good way. and i'm i'm looking forward to more of those kinds collaboration is going forward. got it. so this is up for a final vote and the vote. yays gets on the board of supervisors on tuesday, ok, so passed a budget last week. got it. so in all likelihood, this thing is going to get the green light. >> and what is a city of san francisco under a state of emergency when it comes to fentanyl? look technically, it's not actually a state of emergency, but it is emergency legislation. some measures is that he's proposed. really just to give him a little more streamlined authority to

pursue of their, pursue the things he needs to do around safety and homelessness. he wants to raise money from the private sector to help pay for it. he needs special approvals for that. he wants people to move some things around. the budget need special approvals for that. you wanted to put the board of supervisors and a little bit of a time limit in terms of how long we take to consider some of the contracts and were agreeing to that. so he's so it's all kind of process stuff. and now he has to articulate how he's going to use it. got so in terms of immediate impacts that residents in san francisco might see or feel coming out of this. what can they expect? >> i think folks need to give him a little bit of time been the mayor for less than a he's laying the groundwork is putting very good people into administration. and i'm hoping within the next month or 2, we'll start seeing tangible changes more explanation of how he actually wants to do things differently moving forward. but we're not quite there yet. and i don't necessarily feel like it's reasonable to expect them to be there right out the ok,

disclaimer right now on the topic of public safety. also, we have the big lunar new year parade. that's coming up. i know that there is a lot of >> interest in this lot of people want to come out fort. is there any sort of reassurance that you can offer to folks who still might be concerned about their personal safety before heading out to the city. well, san francisco is actually a very safe we have our public safety challenges, our police will be out that night. you know, they will be out in force. >> and we're going to keep people safe. it's a great event. that's one of my very favorite in san francisco are living in a celebration and people keep keep your eyes open. you know, if something seems weird to find a police officer and tell them about it. but and, you know, be aware and alert. that's always a good idea in the city. but it should be were hoping for a great okay. and so you mentioned some concerns with the new administration over at the white house that's come in. >> we know that immigration

issues top of mind for a lot of folks here in since in san francisco. so how is the city and officials like yourself? how are you navigating all of that given that we it is a sanctuary city. many migration is top of mind, but a lot of things are top of mind that the level of chaos and disorder that we see coming out of the federal administration are the funding for, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars of our of our city budget, billions of dollars. you know, potentially, you know, in question. so immigration is is. is an issue. but and sanctuary is an issue. but there there are a ton of things coming at us freezing. the nih you know, the sort of last week freezing all the federal grants which they walked back they're doing a lot of things that are sort of have everybody, you know, chasing chasing our tails for sanctuary. you know, i think there's a lot of misunderstanding of what sanctuary is. you know, sanctuary is basically just saying that our local law enforcement is not going to be acting as agents of the federal government that their job is to deal with crime and

safety here in san francisco that who ever someone is whatever their status is. we want them to report crimes to our police and we don't want them to feel like if they do that, they might be arrested themselves because of their status. we want people to people to go to our public health system, to our hospitals, win their second. we want people to put their kids in schools. those are the reasons we have sanctuary were not, you know how to protect criminals and we're not going to thwart federal immigration officers doing their job. but we are not going to use our local elect. our local officials, our local employees, to enforce federal immigration law. that's, you not our >> as we start to kind of tie things up here, but have about 90 let's ask you too, about lgbtq rights here in the city. we know that the trump administration has express some changes when it comes to identification on that, the federal level. so how is the city responded to that? >> we're trying to express our solidarity with all these communities, whether you know,

folks, trance folks, immigrants, whoever the federal government may for trump may be going after the stuff they're doing around around lgbt issues is crazy and some of it is symbolic but ugly of the notifications for lgbt travelers on the state department's website. now currently only say lgb travel is so they've taken that he out. they've taken down all sorts of information on the cdc website about prep. so there they are just they're kind of going all over the place and are racing from of, you know, federal mention these communities that i that they don't like. whether that is a people or or whoever else you know there. there's so much stuff coming at us. our city attorney david chiu is great and his lawyers are great. and to the extent that we need to litigate, we well, he's already, you know, in court, protecting trying protect birthright citizenship, which it's insane that that's even a question.

but there will be a lot of stuff to litigate with the federal government about over the next few years. >> all right. thank you so much to services go board president rafael mandelman for your time so i want to ask you, but that's all the time we have. thank all right. we have. thank all right. we'll be right back. excited about saving big with the comcast business 5-year price lock guarantee. five years? -five years. and he's not alone. -high five. it's five years of reliable gig speed internet. five years of advanced securit. five years of a great rate that won't change.

members concerned about trump's approach. let's listen to some of that. >> and then you see it. then you scan your thing. levy unlikey. i've been here 26 years. but this is the first time that i feel that. you know, the extreme panic. >> and not wanting to leave my house. commitment back. that's good. you will tell you that yeah, go to church a lot. so, you know, with the new suppose the changes that that the rays can happen in fearful, i don't know. should i go should not go. i go there earlier and then my my son goes later. but right now we've decided that we're going to go together. >> they contribute to our society and maybe not enough people understand that. but now we're very concerned about just a massive organized structural displacement. >> that's based purely racist agenda that we're very concerned about when you target. >> immigrants. >> the legal it where ever the

wording that they want to the app. >> when you're targeting them, it's not just that one individual that's going to be, in fact, impacted by your policies, by your practices. forte it's going affect a whole whole entire village. >> joining me live now in the craw for studio this morning is immigration attorney gabriel gabriel espinosa ramos. he's based in san francisco with the espinosa ramos law firm. get real. good morning to you. good morning. thank you for having me. of course. thank you so muchpfor joining we are dealing with a lot of information it's ever evolving coming out of washington, d.c., from the white house on a daily basis with regards to this immigration topic, things like, you know, birthright citizenship, the federal troops being sent to the border u.s. immigration and customs enforcement being deployed to different cities. so to start us off here, can you walk us through the basic rights that every immigrant has with with the start with perhaps the ones who are undocumented and those who did come through with the proper documentation. definitely. so every person happening the

u.s. has miranda rights. >> the right remain silent, the right to an attorney. i'll be it and talk. you mentioned immigrants have slightly watered down versions of these rights. nonetheless, undocumented immigrants have the right to remain silent when confronted with ice have the right to assert that and to see counsel and not sign anything. basically self-incrimination, even though being undocumented is a civil offense, but it applies in the same manner as it would with the constitution. so that's the general gist of documented immigrants. citizens, of course, have the full extent of that right? so generally rights against you do when you speaking with police officer, you're right to assert silence and seek an attorney have you seen an uptick in folks coming to you to us for support through this time of that's quite tumultuous for many most definitely. there's a fear going on right now where people are afraid to go out, that there's a fear that

they'll be protection. stop for anything. what do i do if confronted with ice? what can i do to try to prevent and how do i prepare? so i always redirect my clients to asserting these rights and a great resource that i give which is available online is the know your rights card. it's various different languages english, essentially that delineates all of that point. i just mentioned. but it's so important that people assert that right themselves versus just showing the car to an officer's. so i would say being proactive consulting an attorney before to see what rights you may have. if confronted with that, you know, it's seeking out possible benefits and just being prepared on how to react. right now, leaders across the bay area have recently come out in support of the immigrant community as well. let's hear a little bit of that. you have birthright citizens in your state. >> item number one, they're deserving protection of their constitutional right in san

francisco. we value our immigrant communities, whatever trump sense or threatens we are a sanctuary city. we are a sanctuary state and we're here to support and protect our undocumented and refugee community. >> now we heard that for a sanctuary city being repeated a number of times there. i did a supervisor and film and a man about this in earlier interview so how should people interpret that? >> so all of it are at the point made earlier. there's the supremacy clause within the constitution that asserts that. ice functions, immigration enforcement. that is a federal function versus law enforcement. local law enforcement is a state functions. so there is that separates the supremacy clause that applies where the states are not obligated to essentially do the cover federal government's job. however, the states to not have the right to interfere but doesn't mean they have, you know, they have to use that resources to assist with these types of encounters,

know millions of undocumented immigrants we know were deported under both the obama and biden administration. so what's different in this case? >> i would say there's definitely a effort to expedite removal for those who have been in the country for less than 2 years and who do not have an active immigration benefit petition, whether it be within the immigration court, which is defensive removal proceedings or within us. he i s. >> ok, and we know that there is quite a bit of pushback locally when it comes to trump's immigration policies. can you some context here? what leads a person to come to the united states undocumented? >> and many cases clients might that ickes that i work with asylum? there's a violent up in their home country. very poor condition, very bad condition, living conditions. but i would say. mitt, mostly bad living conditions and have to time violence and there are legal benefits. 4 different types of situations that people face in their home countries. and even hear that people should be aware of

that. and i always encourage my clients and just the general immigrant community to avail themselves of legal knowledge to see what the legal benefits they might be able to qualify for in terms of getting legal status. in our last 30 seconds here. what should people do if ice shows up? >> at their home or in a public setting? sure. i would say the most common one right now would be in a public setting, remain calm to you know, be finicky, just cooperate, but do not volunteer information. the officer if you are free to leave or you're being detained and most definitely what i just mentioned certain right to remain silent to seek the counsel of attorney to not sign anything. i would say if with ice and if you're encountering ice at home, determine whether there's an actual warrant because what i'm seeing is that there are warrants signed by ice officials which are not actually more in stock, give them the right to search a person's home. so perhaps asking the peart, you know,

the official could you placed a warrant under the door confirm that it's actually signed by a judge that would give the primers to start your home and it would actually delineate the extent of it. so it's really important to be aware of that. and i would say remain calm is the key here with that? i would alright, san francisco immigration attorney, gabriel espinosa ramos, thank you so much. thank so much for having me. all right. we'll be right all right. we'll be right back. ordinary is the opposite of beautiful. because beauty excites. it energizes. it drops our jaws. dilates our eyes.

county, napa county and sonoma counties. that's where we're expecting higher amounts of rainfall up to 2 inches in the far reaches of northern sonoma and napa counties and also in some of the mountains, we could see more rainfall rest the bay area, maybe a half an inch of rain, but that's pretty light rain for us today. considered i was a bit of a break compared to the last couple of days and compared to tomorrow. so that flood watch does continue through 10 o'clock tonight. gusty winds. yeah, that's in the forecast. off and on throughout the week and monday night into tuesday. that's when you see some wet and windy weather. speaking of the wind gusts, here you go gusty this morning and then you'll see it dies back and then look at bloom again to get very gusty conditions kicking in monday into tuesday. so that's going to be the day. really big concern to really need your umbrella that day. but again, today, it's a chance of rain in the south bay, maybe san jose. everywhere else. generally light rain except for the far north bay. stephanie. >> all right, kathy, thank you

materials that are in there. so getting to the scene of the fire takes a little bit of time. but soon the flames petered out. we've been selling white smoke at times. it's a good sign for the refinery, but still not out of the woods. he apologized for that for the destruction in this incident that is causing the community and the concern. roads were shut down throughout martinez, but all open by late evening. and at one point, crews didn't know what they would be here for days for hours. they didn't even know what may have caused the fire in the first place. but by the evening, the crews finally have a sign of really good news that the situation has greatly improved with the release of hydrocarbon. they were able to do that. the fuel source of the fire while martinez fire continues to investigate. the incident is currently trending down. flames are still present but visible fire has been greatly reduced. he told the press there was ongoing maintenance but wouldn't say if the leak was caused during those updates. we've got to the root cause analysis. want to speculate on the particulars of what was going from one. >> spokesperson from the martinez refinery says it may be common to see some flames still continue to shoot out of that smokestack.

>> they told us that's a way to alleviate some of the pressure away from whatever is fueling the rest of that fire. but again, knowing that the fire crews were able to stop the valve that was causing that leak, that is key to controlling fire. so if you do see some of those flames as you're driving home or driving on the freeway, their message is just don't be alarmed. reporting here in martinez jacmel that kron 4 news. >> officials lifted shelter-in-place orders for people in the martinez pacheco inclined areas. but a health advisory still remains especially for those with respiratory issues. the move is to protect residents from talks in circulating in the air. that means all windows doors and fireplace events must stay closed. >> if you are exposed not able to shelter in place or you're worried that you're experiencing symptoms such as you know, severe headaches, stinging eyes. painful note nasal, inspiration, sore throat. most importantly, shortness of breath, chest pain. this can also set set

>> it's a beautiful day if you like the rain, but it's not that much rain. most of the bay area will see less than half an inch of rain. raindrops on the lens. of course, as we look at the transamerica pyramid down the

line and in san jose may not even see rain. just a chance of rain. but the rain has been fueled by this atmospheric river. here it is is coming from the hawaiian islands straight up toward california and that atmospheric river is fueling storms we've been seeing we've had rain last couple of days. rainfall impressive in some areas, especially in the north bay and now temple, pius. they recorded 6.1, 2 inches of rain and counting. so that was a lot there. but many other areas, 2 to 4 inches of the north bay and a lot less across the rest of the bay area today. not much except in the north bay. in fact, snowmen and new and napa counties in northern parts of that, they could see up to 2 inches of rain. it's rain and it's gusty wind. here we look at the rain and the wind as this morning, really gusty along the coast into the napa valley into the east bay. look at concord and even southward. so toward hayward, it dies down and then it comes back again as the next storm heads in our direction. so monday night into tuesday, we'll see

raindrops strengthen and the winds will strengthen and look at the colors. just light up and then we'll see off and on again. rain throughout the next week. but the winds will not be quite as impressive as overnight. so you know what? it actually even cut back the flood watch. now it's just for the north part of the north bay. so it's going to marin county, sonoma county, napa county. they took out the east bay in the south bay because of this is going to be mainly a northern northern county event for us today. so that's good news. but if you're in the north parts of the bay area, yeah, you could see some flooding because of excessive rainfall. and that, of course, we have saturated soils and some areas now because of the recent storms. so going through time now, this is cumulative starting today. going through wednesday, going through thursday, maybe 3 and a half inches in santa rosa navy. 2.6 in san francisco and of course, santa cruz county and the cattle santa cruz mountains, boulder creek, 5 inches or so of rain. so that's pretty impressive. but you know what? we're going to

see even more rain in parts of the northern part of the state. so you can see we've got 3.4 actually in eureka, 5.6 penn moment. and then in the sierra right now, a kind of a warm storm. so a lot of rain as well as the snow. the snow level pretty high about 8,000 feet that will come down over time. so norfolk snow forecast looking at maybe 2 to 3 feet of snow and lake county even has some snow, as you can see. so it's not going to be big amount, but least they get a little bit of snow 50's 60's. those are our high temperatures today. it's not really about the temperatures was kind of warm overnight with all the clouds and the rain. it's a warm storm and this afternoon temperatures don't improve that much today. here's a look ahead at the next 7 days, it looks awfully rainy, but at times in some places, not so much as other. so light showers for today. the rate increases overnight monday into tuesday. we'll keep it little bit rainy on wednesday. light rain on thursday. and so it goes, i think maybe saturday looks pretty dry. the people of san

francisco made a statement this past election season voting in a new mayor and members to its board of supervisors to tackle concerns over public safety, homelessness and fentanyl. among many other issues. >> joining us live now to discuss is for president rafael mandelman. good to have you back. good to be back, stephanie. so first of all, i think congratulations are in order. you are the 3rd lgbtq+ president of the board of supervisors. the first in over 20 how does it feel a? i mean, it's sort of amazing. it's the this is the middle of my last 2 years on the board of supervisors season. >> nice way to finish crazy times nationally. but locally, it seems like a lot of opportunity. i'm looking forward to it. yeah. you mentioned the last 2 years for you. any plans to resign at any point? well, i don't think i'll run again for the board of supervisors will see what opportunities there are for other things. but for now, i gotta i gotta president. i got to preside, ok? yes, yes, absolutely. so let's get to the top of the city. a lot of issues facing at this year.

let's start with the topic of public safety. we know that mayor lurie, he's promised to make public safety is number one priority. so have conversations gone between you and him and the rest of the board. >> so far pretty well. i mean, he's he came out the gate with his fentanyl emergency legislation. you know, many of us had some concerns, but he and his team have been willing to engage with us. they made some changes. they respond some of the issues i'd raised and he now has 6 co-sponsors. it's going to pass. you know, i i think, you know, he's he's approach that in a good way. and i'm i'm looking forward to more of those kinds collaboration is going forward. got it. so this is up for a final vote in the voting days. gets on the board of supervisors on tuesday, ok, so passed a budget last week. got it. so in all likelihood, this thing is going to get the green light. >> and what is a city of san francisco under a state of emergency when it comes to fentanyl? look like. technically it's not actually a state of emergency, but it

emergency legislation, some measures is that he's proposed. really just to give him a little more streamlined authority to pursue other, pursue the things he needs to do around safety and homelessness. he wants to raise money from the private sector to help pay for it needs special approvals for that. he wants people to move some things around in the budget. need special approvals for that. you wanted to put the board of supervisors that a little bit of a time limit in terms of how long we take to consider some of the contracts and where green to that. so he's so it's all kind of process stuff. and now he has to articulate how he's going to use it. got so in terms of immediate impacts that residents in san francisco might see or feel coming out of this. what can they expect? >> i think folks need to give him a little bit of time been the mayor for less than a he's laying the groundwork is putting very good people into administration. and i'm hoping that in the next month or 2, we'll start seeing tangible changes more explanation of how he actually wants to do

things differently moving forward. but we're not quite there yet. and i don't necessarily feel like it's reasonable to expect him to be there right out the ok, disclaimer, right now on the topic of public safety. also, we have the big lunar new year parade. that's coming up. i know that there is a lot of >> interest in this lot of people want to come out fort. is there any sort of reassurance tnat you can offer to folks who still might be concerned about their personal safety before heading out to the city. well, san francisco is actually a very safe city. we have our public safety challenges, our police will be out that night. you know, they will be out in force. >> and we're going to keep people safe. it's a great event. that's one of my very favorite in san francisco are living in a celebration and people keep keep your eyes open. you know, if something seems weird to find a police officer and tell them about it. but and, you know, be aware and alert. that's always a good idea in the city. but it should be were hoping for a great okay. and so you

mentioned some concerns with the new administration over at the white house that's come in. >> we know that immigration issues top of mind for a lot of folks here in since in san francisco. so how is the city and officials like yourself? how are you navigating all of that give that we it is a sanctuary city. many migration is top of mind, but a lot of things are top of mind with the level of chaos and disorder that we see coming out of the federal administration are the funding for, you know, hundreds of millions of dollars of our of our city budget, billions of dollars. you know, potentially, you know, in question. so immigration is is. is an issue. but and sanctuary is an issue. but there there are a ton of things coming at us freezing. the nih you know, the sort of last week freezing all the federal grants which they walked back they're doing a lot of things that are sort of have everybody, you know, chasing chasing our tails for sanctuary. you know, i think there's a lot of misunderstanding of what sanctuary is. you know,

sanctuaries basically just saying that our local law enforcement is not going to be acting as agents of the federal government that their job is to deal with crime and safety here in san francisco that who ever someone is whatever their status is. we want them to report crimes to our police and we don't want them to feel like if they do that, they might be arrested themselves because of their status. we want people to people to go to our public health system, to our hospitals, win their second. we want people to put their kids in schools. those are the reasons we have sanctuary were not, you know how to protect criminals and we are not going to thwart federal immigration officers doing their job. but we are not going to use our local our local officials. our local employees to enforce federal immigration law. that's, you not our >> as we start to kind of tie things up here, but have about 90 like to ask you, too, about lgbtq rights here in the city. we know that the trump administration has express some changes when it comes to identification on that, the

federal level. so how is the city responded to that? >> well, we're trying to express our solidarity with all these communities, whether you know, folks, trance folks, immigrants, whoever the federal government may trump may be going after the stuff they're doing around around lgbt issues is crazy and some of it is symbolic but ugly of the notifications for lgbt travelers on the state department's website now currently only say lgb travel is so they've taken that he out. they've taken down all sorts of information on the cdc website about prep. so there they are just they're kind of going all over the place and are racing from of, you know, federal mention these communities that i that they don't like. whether that is a people or or whoever else ann's. you know there. there's so much stuff coming at us. our city attorney david chiu is great and his lawyers are great. and to the extent that

we need to litigate, we well, he's already, you know, in court, protecting trying protect birthright citizenship, which it's insane that that's even a question. but there will be a lot of stuff to litigate with the federal government about over the next few years. all right. thank you so much to services go board president rafael mandelman for your time so i want to ask you, but that's all the time. we have thanked all we'll be right back.

you scan your thing. levy unlikey been here 26 years. but this is the first time that i feel that. you know, the extreme panic. >> and not wanting to leave my fact, that's good. you will tell you that yeah, go to church a lot. so, you know, with the new suppose the changes that that the rays can happen in fearful, i don't know. should i go should not go. i go there earlier and then my my son goes later. but right now we've decided that we're going to go together. >> they contribute to our society and maybe not enough people understand that. but now we're very concerned about just a massive organized structural displacement. >> that's based purely in racist agenda that we're very concerned about when you target. >> immigrants. >> the illegal aliens, what ever the wording that they want to now when you're targeting them, it's not just that one individual that's going to be, in fact, impacted by your policies, by your

practices, massport asians. it's going affect a whole whole entire village. >> joining me live now in the craw for studio this morning is immigration attorney gabriel gabriel espinosa ramos. he's based in san francisco with the espinosa ramos law firm. get real. good morning to you. good morning. thank you for having me. of course. thank you so much for joining we are dealing with a lot of information it's ever evolving coming out of washington, d.c., from the white house on a daily basis with regards to this immigration topic, things like, you know, birthright citizenship, the federal troops being sent to the border u.s. immigration and customs enforcement being deployed to different cities. so to start us off here, can you walk us through the basic rights that every immigrant has with with the start with perhaps the ones who are undocumented and those who did come through with the proper documentation. definitely. so every person happening the u.s. has miranda rights. >> the right remain silent, the right to an attorney, albeit undocumented immigrants have slightly watered down

versions of these rights. nonetheless, undocumented immigrants have the right to remain silent when confronted with ice have the right to assert that and to see counsel and not sign anything. basically self-incrimination, even though being undocumented is a civil offense. but it applies in the same manner as it would with the constitution. so that's the general gist of documented immigrants. citizens, of course, have the full extent of that right? so generally rights against utah. when you speaking with police officer, you're right to assert silence and seek an attorney have you seen an uptick in folks coming to you to us for support through this time of that's quite tumultuous for many most definitely. there's a fear going on right now where people are afraid to go out, that there's a fear that they'll be protection. stop for anything. what do i do if confronted with ice? what can i do to try to prevent and how do i prepare? so i always

redirect my clients to asserting these rights and a great resource that i give which is available online is the know your rights card. it's various different languages english, essentially that delineates all of that point. i just mentioned. but it's so important that people assert that right themselves versus just showing the car to an officer's. so i would say being proactive consulting an attorney before to see what rights you may have. if confronted with that, you know, it's seeking out possible benefits and just being prepared on how to react. right now, leaders across the bay area have recently come out in support of the immigrant community as well. let's hear a little bit of that. you have a birthright citizens in your state. >> item number one, they're deserving protection of their constitutional right in san francisco. we value our immigrant communities, whatever trump sense or threatens we are a sanctuary

city. we are a sanctuary state and we are here to support and protect our undocumented and refugee community. >> now we heard that phrase sanctuary city being repeated a number of times there. i did a supervisor and film and a man about this in earlier interview so how should people interpret that? >> so all of it are at the point made earlier. there's the supremacy clause within the constitution that asserts that. ice functions, immigration enforcement. that is a federal function versus law enforcement. local law enforcement is a state function. so there is that separates the supremacy clause that applies where the states are not obligated to essentially do the cover federal government's job. however, the states to not have the right to interfere. doesn't mean they have, you know, they have to use that resources to assist with these types of encounters, know millions of undocumented immigrants we know were deported under both the obama and biden administration. so what's different in this case?

>> i would say there's definitely a effort to expedite removal for those who have been in the country for less than 2 years and who do not have an active immigration benefit petition, whether it be within the immigration court, which is defensive removal proceedings or within us. he i s. >> ok, and we know that there is quite a bit of pushback locally when it comes to trump's immigration policies. can you some context here? what leads a person to come to the united states undocumented? >> and many cases clients might that ickes that i work with asylum? there's a violent up in their home country. very to time violence and there are legal benefits. 4 different types of situations that people face in their home countries. and even hear that people should be aware of that. and i always encourage my clients and just the general immigrant community to avail themselves of legal

knowledge to see what the legal benefits they might be able to qualify for in terms of getting legal status. in our last 30 seconds here. what should people do if ice shows up? >> at their home or in a public setting? sure. i would say the most common one right now would be in a public setting, remain calm to you know, be finicky, just cooperate, but do not volunteer information. the officer if you are free to leave or you're being detained and most definitely what i just mentioned certain right to remain silent to seek the counsel of attorney to not sign anything. i would say if you know, with ice and if you're encountering ice at home, determine whether there's an actual warrant, because what i'm seeing is that there are warrants signed by ice officials which are not actually more in stock, give them the right to search a person's home. so perhaps asking the peart, you know, the official could you place the warrant under the door confirm that it's actually signed by a judge that would

give the primers to start your home and it would actually delineate the extent of it. so it's really important to be aware of that. and i would say remain calm is the key here with that? i would alright, san francisco immigration attorney, gabriel espinosa ramos, thank you so much. ramos, thank you so much. thank so much for ry excited about saving big with the comcast business 5-year price lock guarantee. five years? -five years. and he's not alone. -high five. it's five years of reliable gig speed internet. five years of advanced securit. five years of a great rate that won't change. it's back. but only for a limited time. high five. five years? -nope. comcast business 5-year price lock guarantee. powering five years of savings. powering possibilities. comcast business.

i guess what i'm looking for from you is, i mean, i know how the fire affected me, and there's always a constant fear that who's to say something like that won't happen again? that's fair. we committed to underground, 10,000 miles of electric line. you look back at where we were 10 years ago and we are in a completely different place today, and it's because of how we need to care for our communities and our customers. i hope that's true.

are alligators. there are birds and even stuffed toys that people claim can forecast the weather. octopus 2, 0, yes, right there. of the intelligence they might do better jaw ducks and thanks predict what it is pretty funny and makes it fun. and they actually had a movie called groundhog day. yes, i love that about. it's about a meteorologist. to punxsutawney to cover this story. and of course, he is just furious. he has to cover this story. he's got a really bad attitude. yeah. and so what happens is, you know that you probably see it right, right move. actually very deep, i think because he relives the the identical day day after day after day and he found it up, becomes as monsters person because it doesn't matter who the next 8 on to start over again. and then in the end, he becomes a very good person. he saved the little girl that he knows about to fall out of a tree yeah, it's all good. my forecast well. look for minute or 2, but i'm not forecasting it for 6 weeks. okay. so today, light showers, maybe a half an inch of rain except in

the northern reaches of napa and sonoma counties. and there is a flood watch in effect for north bay. and then overnight, monday night into tuesday, that rain increases the wind increases. and that's going to be a a storm will actually affect the south bay even a lot more. so we're going to catch up on the rainfall there and it's going to be raining off and on throughout the week. and i think maybe by next weekend, hopefully we'll get it break in the rankings. this is a lot coming all at once. we need the rain but maybe not all at once. so kind of the same deal day after day after saturday until saturday that it breaks maybe breaks the yeah, fingers crossed. all right. well, thanks so much, kathy, and thanks all of you for joining us here on the kron 4 weekend morning news. we'll see you bright and early back here next weekend at 07:00am. i'm stephanie lin. and on behalf of everyone here at kron 4. thanks for joining us. have a great day. everybody.
