Los Angeles mayor lifts curfew imposed after immigration raids, protests

DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA, JUN 18 – Mayor Bass cites a drop in arrests and a 75% decrease in looting incidents as reasons for lifting the curfew aimed at curbing unrest linked to immigration enforcement protests.

  • On June 17, 2025, Mayor Karen Bass lifted the curfew in an eight-square-mile area of downtown Los Angeles including Chinatown, Little Tokyo, the Fashion and Arts Districts.
  • The curfew, imposed on June 10 to prevent vandalism and looting during protests sparked by immigration raids, had aimed to curb nighttime unrest and property damage.
  • Bass shortened the curfew start from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. after arrests declined, while most protests remained peaceful though some turned destructive at night.
  • Bass stated that the combination of the curfew and continuous crime prevention measures has been effective in safeguarding local shops, eateries, businesses, and neighborhoods from individuals causing harm, and she is prepared to reinstate the curfew if circumstances require.
  • The curfew lift signals progress in safety, but officials and business leaders urge continued vigilance as immigration enforcement operations continue locally and City Council approved an amendment to revisit the curfew July 1.
