US EditionCalifornia lawmakers come together to demand an end to recent ICE raids, troop deployment
- On Sunday, June 15, 2025, California Senator Alex Padilla intensified his demand that the Trump Administration pull military forces out of Los Angeles amid ongoing tensions.
- These calls came after President Trump dispatched 700 Marines and National Guard personnel to the Los Angeles area following demonstrations against immigration enforcement, a deployment that state officials opposed due to the lack of prior notification.
- The deployment disrupted coordination between local law enforcement and federal agencies, with LAPD emphasizing its separate mission of public safety and not participating in immigration enforcement.
- Senator Padilla criticized the federal government for sending military personnel into U.S. cities without coordinating with the Governor and local officials, describing it as an improper exercise of federal authority that has interfered with the efforts of local law enforcement to preserve public safety.
- This conflict has led to legal challenges, protests, and ongoing efforts by California officials to reverse the military presence, suggesting heightened tensions and potential constitutional concerns over federal authority use.
