Bonta Leads Effort to Stop Deportation of Kao Ta Saelee

Assemblymember Bonta and Legislative colleagues are fighting to stop the deportation of Kao Ta Saelee, a Californian who bravely served as an inmate firefighter. He served his time, earned his release, but when he was due to be set free, the state voluntarily handed him over to ICE where he now faces deportation to a country he fled as a refugee with his family at the age of 2. We are calling for the Governor to pardon Mr. Saelee.
