San Francisco joined Berkeley to pass a resolution embracing a New Border Vision, a framework for border policy based on dignity and human rights in the border region, which technically includes most of California.

A New Border Vision was developed by the Southern Border Communities Coalition (SBCC), a project of Alliance San Diego. As cities within 100 miles of a coastal border, San Francisco and Berkeley are border cities. Their support of a New Border vision is a call for border policy that expands public safety, protects human rights, and welcomes all people at our borders.
