US EditionSupreme Court allows Trump ICE raids to resume in California
- On September 8, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to lift a lower court injunction, allowing ICE to resume immigration raids in Los Angeles targeting people based on race, language, location, and employment.
- The decision reversed a July ruling by a federal judge who halted the raids, finding agents lacked reasonable suspicion and relied on four broad factors related to ethnicity, language, location, and job type.
- Armed and masked ICE agents had seized over 2,800 individuals at workplaces like car washes and farms, detaining them until they could prove lawful presence, often before questioning them.
- Justice Sonia Sotomayor dissented, stating the government treated Latinos and low-wage workers as 'fair game' for stops and seizures without proper suspicion, raising constitutional concerns about equal protection.
- The ruling permits broader use of ethnicity, language, and employment as factors in immigration enforcement and drew criticism for potentially undermining constitutional rights nationwide.
