US EditionIs Border Patrol Allowed to Operate so Far From the Southern Border for Sacramento Raid? 100-Mile Rule Explained
SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA, JUL 17 – More than 10 people were arrested during the Border Patrol operation targeting suspected undocumented immigrants, with one protester arrested after damaging federal vehicles.
- Early Thursday morning, U.S. Border Patrol officers carried out an operation targeting undocumented immigrants in the parking lot of a Home Depot in south Sacramento, leading to the detention of more than 10 individuals, including at least eight who were not U.S. citizens.
- The raid prompted questions because Sacramento lies hundreds of miles from the U.S.-Mexico border, although Border Patrol agents have jurisdiction within 100 air miles from any U.S. boundary, including Sacramento near the coast.
- Prior to the raid, Border Patrol conducted surveillance in Sacramento and checked vehicle registrations over a two-day period; this action came after a federal judge recently ordered a halt to immigration arrests in Southern California that lack probable cause.
- Border Patrol Chief Gregory Bovino said "There’s no such thing as a sanctuary state" and declared, "We’re here, and we’re not going anywhere," while critics like Gov. Newsom's office condemned the raids as illegal and disruptive.
- The raid underscores tensions over immigration enforcement far from the border and suggests ongoing disputes about the legal limits of Border Patrol operations amid court challenges and political backlash.
