Good Evening, Maywood City Council:
My name is Arthur Schaper, a resident of Torrance, CA,
citizen of the United States, and proud member of We the People Rising.

I am visiting this city council today because I want to know
for a fact whether this city has declared itself a “sanctuary city”.

I have submitted two records requests on this matter, and I
am still waiting for an answer.

I understand that a new city clerk has been elected. Very
Good. I would like to have that individual’s contact information to submit
requests for the future.

In Los Angeles County, lawlessness in regards to our borders
and our rule of law has increased terribly. Cudahy decided to declare itself a
sanctuary city. The result: crime, corruption, and chaos. I witnessed the sorry
display at their January 11th and 27th city council meetings.

Huntington Park, CA appointed two illegal aliens to city
commissions in August. Those assignments command no respect or regard, and they
must be rescinded. With We the People
Rising, I have protested these outrageous, illegal, and immoral actions.

San Francisco, CA is a more notorious example, a city whose
elected officials decided to become a “city of refuge” in 1985 in order not to
discriminate against those individuals seeking asylum from war-torn countries.

This status became an official law in 1989, with the
following information provided:

Even as recently as 2010, both Governor Brown as well as
Republican candidate Meg Whitman declared their opposition to these policies.
To this day, Governor Brown has done nothing. In fact, Brown has thrown out the
welcome mat to illegal aliens, at the expense of legal residents and law
abiding citizens.

Shameful.
His inaction, and the lawlessness imposed by all
municipalities, has made us all less safe.

Here are the names of the following individuals killed by

Steinle’s death is particularly telling, because it occurred

Thankfully, the voters of San Francisco deported him.
And now we need our government, from the federal and the

If Maywood has declared itself a sanctuary city policy in
the past, this edict must be repealed, overturned, or removed.

If not, then I hope that the elected officials of this city
will press on their neighboring cities – Cuday and Huntington Park, to start
enforcing the law, respecting our Constitution, and demand the rule of law and
respect for all citizens in Los Angeles County.
