‘A nightmare': Critics blast Jacksonville's new limits on aid for undocumented immigrants
Local activists are urging supporters to boycott businesses owned by Jacksonville City Council members who voted in favor of a new immigration ordinance passed Tuesday night. The bill, which restricts the use of taxpayer dollars for services to undocumented immigrants, passed 11 to 7 after hours of heated debate and multiple amendments. While supporters say it's about fiscal responsibility, critics say it unfairly targets vulnerable communities. >>> STREAM ACTION NEWS JAX LIVE <<< 'We passed Jacksonville's first ever prohibition of spending taxpayer money on illegal immigrants for services,' said Councilman Rory Diamond, who sponsored the bill. 'My colleagues wanted some exceptions… emergency services, military members, and others to prevent unintentional consequences.' Among the changes made before passage: carveouts for pregnant women, children, military families, and victims of sex and labor trafficking. Still, the measure drew emotional responses from community advocates. [DOWNLOAD: Free Action News Jax app for alerts as news breaks] Cuban-American community leader Clara Sowers said the bill could have a negative effect on immigrants in crisis. 'It's a nightmare,' said Sowers. 'Do you call JSO when you get beat up? Do you get in the ambulance if you're hurt? This bill stokes fear.' Now, the Jacksonville Immigrant Rights Alliance is calling for a boycott of any business tied to council members who voted yes. [SIGN UP: Action News Jax Daily Headlines Newsletter] The bill also requires the mayor's office to report on the number of undocumented immigrants receiving city-funded housing, as well as disclose data on DEI programs and federal grants. Mayor Donna Deegan has not yet signed the measure. 'She's in a tough situation,' said Sowers. 'No matter what she does, she'll be criticized.' Councilman Diamond had a message for the mayor: 'Have some guts, have some courage… sign it or veto it. Don't just play games with it.'

‘She was cold to the touch'; Man says he tried to save 1-month-old baby found dead in hotel room
Neighbors said they found a 1-month-old baby girl unresponsive inside a DeKalb County hotel room on June 4. The baby's mother is facing charges. 'This is ridiculous for somebody to hurt a child like that,' the hotel maintenance worker told Channel 2's Audrey Washington. He asked his name not be used in the report. 'It's just sad that it happened. I hate that happened,' witness Tyrone Stewart said. [DOWNLOAD: Free WSB-TV News app for alerts as news breaks] People at the DeKalb County hotel said they first heard the screams before they rushed in to help the baby in hotel room 106. 'Help, help, my baby's not breathing,' one woman said she heard. The maintenance worker recounted how he and his partner tried to save the baby. 'She was doing CPR on the baby. The baby didn't look like it was alive and it was cold,' the maintenance worker said. Washington obtained exclusive video of the response effort. According to the criminal warrant, the 1-month-old baby girl had been dead for hours. She suffered a fractured skull and bruising to the face. The warrant also stated that inside the hotel room were two other children, a 7-year-old, and a 1-year-old. Stewart said the surviving children were in bad shape. 'They looked like they were homeless. They needed, you know needed help,' said Stewart. The mother of the children, 25-year-old Tamara Salter, is accused of leaving all three children alone. Salter is charged with felony murder, three counts of reckless conduct and child cruelty, authorities said. The maintenance worker said Salter left her children alone before. 'We gave her a warning then. We said, 'You cannot leave these kids alone. If you need help, ask for help,'' he said. 'Being a father, it's hard to see any child hurt, and that one, it was so little,' he said. It's still unclear how the baby got hurt. At last check, Salter is still in custody.
