  California Governor Gavin Newsom condemned David Huerta's detention. Representatives Jimmy Gomez, Luz Rivas, Norma Torres, and Lou Correa visited the detention center where the detained were held; Gomez alleged that they "didn't have access to food and water on a schedule" nor "access to their medicines".
  
  In a televised speech Newsom later criticized President Trump's decision to mobilize the California National Guard, saying that it was "purposefully inflammatory" and that it would "only escalate tensions"; he also urged protesters to "never use violence" and to "speak out peacefully". In response to Trump's authorization of an additional 2,000 National Guardsmen to be sent Los Angeles, Newsom described the move as "reckless" and "disrespectful to our troops". According to The New York Times, California Democrats had privately expressed concern that Trump would nationalize the state's national guard, but acknowledged that their legal options would be limited. The Financial Times wrote that the order to deploy National Guardsmen would "intensify tensions between the Trump administration and California". California sued the Trump administration over the decision to bypass the governor in nationalizing the national guard.
  
  Senators Adam Schiff and Alex Padilla condemned the mobilization of the National Guard to Los Angeles. Padilla called the mobilization "a completely inappropriate and misguided mission", while Schiff described it as "unprecedented" and stated that the action "is designed to inflame tensions, sow chaos, and escalate the situation".
  
  On June 10, at 6:30 p.m. PDT, Newsom delivered a primetime televised address to California and the nation to criticize Trump for sending National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles, calling it an assault on democracy.
