BROADCAST TRANSCRIPT:

Protests continue in Bakersfield against ICE raids in Los Angeles. I'm Sam Hoyle your neighborhood reporter. This one being organized by the group known as 'Organizing for a Better Change' standing at the corner of Chester and Truxton chanting with bullhorns and signs.

Organizers telling me this demonstration is part of the same one in front of Congressman Vince Fong's office on Monday, which is calling for an end to immigration enforcement in mostly immigrant communities. We spoke to an organizer who said they're standing in solidarity with those affected by the policies.

That organizer also telling me at this point, they do not have another demonstration planned.
