RepresentLA helps provide free legal services to the city's immigrant community and the motion calls for more funding for services addressing detained and non-detained merit-blind removal defense.

A Los Angeles City Council committee voted to approve a motion seeking to expand the use of funds to cover additional legal services through RepresentLA, an initiative aimed at providing free legal services for the city's immigrant community.

"That's why I introduced the motion, because while I thought we did good work, let's try to improve it.'' LAJF provided a collective $7.9 million to establish a legal defense fund and provided funding for legal services to immigrants facing deportations.
