OAKLAND - Attorney General Bonta, as part of a coalition of 20 attorneys general, filed an amicus brief in Pacito v. Trump in support of a challenge to the Trump Administration's Refugee Ban and Refugee Funding Suspension, arguing that the actions are unlawful, misrepresent the concerns and interests of states, and undermine states’ ongoing efforts to successfully assimilate and integrate newly arrived refugees.

A copy of the brief is available here.
