The City remains committed to the values of dignity, inclusivity, and respect for all individuals, regardless of ethnic or national origin, gender, race, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, or immigration status. We are committed to upholding the Constitution and ensuring a safe community for everyone, consistent with the City’s Sanctuary City policy.

Conflicting federal funding announcements have created a feeling of uncertainty in cities like Alameda, which depend on these funds for essential programs and projects, including transportation, infrastructure, and human services. The City strongly supports Governor Newsom and Attorney General Bonta’s efforts to safeguard federal funds, challenge these illegal actions, and hold the federal administration accountable. We are dedicated to serving our diverse community and are actively monitoring this fluid situation and its potential impacts on Alameda.
