California launches portal to report federal misconduct | JQJO

California officials unveiled an online portal for residents to report suspected misconduct by federal agents, allowing uploads of videos, photos and details to help the state Department of Justice assess potential legal action. Announced by Gov. Gavin Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta, the tool arrives amid community anxiety over federal operations Bonta likened to unlawful detentions. Officials cautioned the site is not a 911 replacement, does not trigger immediate response, and the Attorney General cannot represent individuals; legal referrals are available through the State Bar and LawHelpCA. The portal is hosted on the DOJ website.
