From Walmart to Car Washes, American Companies Are Getting Caught up in ICE Raids and Protests
CALIFORNIA, JUL 7 – Chicxs Rockerxs shifted its annual summer camp online to protect migrant youth during intensified ICE raids that led to 44 arrests in Los Angeles in June 2025.
- Federal agents conducted a citywide raid on June 6 at Ambiance Apparel in Los Angeles, detaining dozens of workers amid a broader immigration enforcement effort.
- This raid was part of the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement campaign aimed at removing unauthorized labor, despite prior messaging emphasizing targeting criminals.
- The raids caused widespread fear among immigrant communities, leading to decreased attendance at events like the Chicxs Rockerxs summer camp for youth ages 8 to 17, which moved online for safety.
- Bryan Little, California Farm Bureau policy director, urged action with “common sense and compassion” to keep farm families stable, while employers advocate for longer-term legal worker programs.
- Studies and expert analyses show mass deportations do not substantially improve wages or job opportunities for American workers but increase community fear and economic disruption.
