He told reporters he did not intend to get arrested, and the only way to win change is through nonviolence.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This fight is ours, it&#8217;s our community&#8217;s, but it belongs to everyone,&#8221; Huerta said in Spanish, according to the Associated Press. &#8220;We all have to fight for them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/foxnews.com\/politics\/fbi-investigate-any-evidence-criminal-conspiracy-la-riots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>FBI WILL INVESTIGATE &#8216;ANY EVIDENCE OF A CRIMINAL CONSPIRACY&#8217; IN LA RIOTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Huerta was arrested while <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/crime\/police-and-law-enforcement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">law enforcement officers<\/a> were executing a federal search warrant at a Los Angeles business suspected of hiring illegal immigrants and falsifying employment papers, a special agent for Homeland Security Investigations, which is part of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, wrote in a federal court filing obtained by the AP.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>SEIU represents 750,000 members in 17 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/economy\/labor-unions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">local unions<\/a> across 58 counties, according to its website.

At this very moment, immigrant communities are being terrorized by heavily militarized armed forces. The Trump regime calling in the National Guard is a dangerous escalation to target people who disagree with them. It is a threat to our democracy. The federal government should never be used as a weapon against people who disagree with them,&#8221; she said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;America is a nation of immigrants. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/immigration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Immigrant workers<\/a> are essential to our society: feeding our nation, caring for our elders, cleaning our workplaces, and building our homes,&#8221; Verrett added. &#8220;Immigrants are scientists, they are teachers and professors. They are our co-workers, neighbors and family members. They deserve our respect and they need their constitutional rights respected.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>The Associated Press contributed to this report.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p> &#8211; FOX NEWS<\/p>\n<p>This article appeared on the website foxnews.com<br \/>\nThis article is taken based on Law no. 8\/1996 of Romania.
