California legislators are expected to pass a resolution condemning the state’s role in the U.S. government’s internment of 120,000 Japanese Americans during World War II.

ese ancestry, the 5-year-old and his family were taken from their home in 1942 and imprisoned far away in Arkansas.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s executive order No. 9066 establishing the camps was signed on Feb. 19, 1942, and 2/19 now is marked by Japanese Americans as a Day of Remembrance. A congressional commission in 1983 concluded that the detentions were a result of “racial prejudice, war hysteria and failure of political leadership.” Five years later, the U.S. government formally apologized and paid $20,000 in reparations to each victim.

“I want the California Legislature to officially acknowledge and apologize while these camp survivors are still alive,” Muratsuchi said. Given their young ages at the time, many living victims such as Ouchida don’t remember much of life in the camps. But he does recall straw-filled mattresses and little privacy.

So did Japan apologize for attacking Pearl harbor? I'm assuming so.

That's exactly a lawless discrimination of American's citizens !

I thought CA did that. No? Omg- that’s just insane!

Great!! Now pay them reparations and raise taxes higher to pay for that. Ohhhh by the way what are u doing for homeless population ant the citizens of California who are affected by them!! Can’t make this up! Go Nancy!

Did they leave the camps a mess or what?

I thought the Feds were responsible.

Can we stop?!? Just stop....internment camps, Pearl Harbor, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Batan Death March.........America and Japan both screwed the pooch. Can we move on?

This won't change the past, improve the present or bring about a better future. No wonder so many are leaving California. Soon only billionaires and the homeless will call California home.
