An activist group announced the launch of a statewide campaign Tuesday asking Latinos not to collaborate with local law enforcement.

The move is in response to the stance some cities are taking against the state’s sanctuary laws, which legalizes statewide non-cooperation policies between California law enforcement agencies and federal immigration authorities. Hermandad Mexicana’s campaign, spearheaded by long-time activist and the group’s political advisor Nativo Lopez, says police should not expect cooperation in the form of court appearances, witnesses’ testimony or even crime reporting.

The “non-violent, non-cooperation” campaign is not supported by other immigrant rights organizations.
