A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK
OPPOSING PROPOSITION 187 RELATING TO
ILLEGAL ALIENS INELIGIBILITY FOR
PUBLIC SERVICES.
WHEREAS, Proposition 187 won't reduce the number of illegal
immigrants, but will cause a host of new problems; and,
WHEREAS, Proposition 187 is ambiguously drafted such that it
may violate important federal laws that govern federal funding to
our schools and health programs; and,
WHEREAS, the independent, non - partisan Legislative Analyst
has determined these violations could end up costing taxpayers
$15 billion if Proposition 187 passed; and,
WHEREAS, Proposition 187 would turn our doctors, nurses, and
teachers into INS agents and our hospitals and schools into
immigration offices; and,
WHEREAS, denying basic medical attention and immunizations to
people would increase the spread of costly and preventable
communicable diseases and threaten the health of all Californians;
and,
WHEREAS, an estimated 400,000 kids without proper
documentation would be kicked out of school and onto the streets.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOORPARK,
CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. To oppose Proposition 187 on the November 8,
1994 ballot.
SECTION 2. That this Resolution shall take effect
