California may be the first state in the country to appoint a person illegally in the U.S. to a position in state government following the Senate Rules Committee's decision to approve Lizbeth Mateo, a Mexican-born woman, for a statewide post.

Mateo, a 33-year-old attorney, was appointed Wednesday to the California Student Opportunity and Access Program and will advise the Student Aid Commission.

California Senate Pro Tempore Kevin de Leon's office confirmed to the Washington Examiner on Thursday Mateo is the first illegal immigrant to be given a state-appointed job and said it was not aware of any other state to have done so.


Multiple officials at immigration organizations also told the Examiner they were unaware of any other states that had made similar appointments, making the Wednesday vote a historic one.

Mateo came to the U.S. with her parents when she was 14 years old. In California, where illegal immigrants gained the legal right to practice law in 2014, she attended Santa Clara University School of Law and passed the California state bar exam last year.

This can't be legal and will be overturned, and the salt will be wonderful. There were laws passed about this at the start of the nation FFS.

What amuses me, that very fact 200+ year old laws will be just called out of date.
 
"While undocumented students have become more visible in our state, they remain underrepresented in places where decisions that affect them are being made,"

YEAH BECAUSE IF YOU WANT TO DO THAT YOU BECOME A LEGAL CITIZEN, THAT'S ONE OF YOUR RIGHTS IT'S NOT HARD TO UNDERSTAND.
 
When non citizens are running your government, that's called being conquered. Mexico is the only nation so pathetic it could conquer a neighbor just by making them feel really bad for them.

In her new role, Mateo will help low-income and under-served communities learn more about how to apply for college.

It's not clear if Mateo is a recipient of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which would give her legal protections from deportation and work authorization.

“This’ll show everybody we’re not a bunch of retarded hippies who don’t hear ourselves outloud ever!”
 
Can't wait for the pictures of ICE/US Marshal service hauling this chick out of office and out of the country.

Real talk. If they are so confident in appointing an illegal to public office, they probably have enough legal workaround in place to protect her 100% from immigration enforcement. They would not gain any sympathy by martyring her, so to speak.
 
How the fuck did California get away with making it legal for illegals to practice law?

lol no, this woman is going to be fucked on a pyre by ICE. This is California thinking they're cute by bragging about giving an illegal a state post, and the fact this woman actually accepted the job means she's a fucking idiot because there is nothing stopping ICE from coming to arrest her.

I'm sure there's some legal wrangling that would let them get around it. Like maybe they found a way to permanently keep her bumped to the back of ICE's roundup queue. It will be shooting themselves in the foot if they let the situation worsen to the poin that this illegal gets deported. They lose her seat to a special election (and all the costs incurred in subsequent campaigning), they damage her future immigration prospects, they pretty much end her career in America for the foreseeable future, and all for what? A few days in the headlines and maybe a couple months worth of virtue signaling?
