US EditionMask Snatched Off ICE Agent by California Protester
LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 8 – California and 17 states argue that suspicionless stops by masked ICE agents in Los Angeles violate constitutional rights and disrupt public safety, urging legal restraint on raids.
- Los Angeles County and several cities filed court documents today seeking to end warrantless ICE seizures and arrests while addressing economic damages from recent raids.
- The raids followed a Trump administration directive to increase enforcement in sanctuary cities, leading to widespread criticism and lawsuits challenging their constitutionality.
- Masked ICE agents frequently used unwarranted force, stopped people without reasonable suspicion, and sometimes detained U.S. citizens, causing fear and disruption in communities.
- The Governor criticized the raids as not being driven by concerns for safety or fairness, but rather aimed at fulfilling enforcement targets and intimidating local communities, while the Department of Homeland Security rejected accusations of racial discrimination.
- The legal actions seek injunctions to halt unconstitutional practices, reflecting broader concerns over civil rights, community safety, and the ongoing impact of federal immigration enforcement in California.
