Government's Bid to Resume SoCal Immigration Raids Blocked by Appeals Court

LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AUG 2 – The Ninth Circuit upheld a restraining order barring federal agents from immigration arrests based solely on race, language, or location amid allegations of racial profiling and unconstitutional tactics.

  • A federal appeals court late Friday upheld a lower court's order blocking indiscriminate immigration arrests in Southern California.
  • The ruling follows a lawsuit last month alleging Trump administration raids targeted migrants based on race, language, and location without reasonable suspicion.
  • The three-judge panel maintained that federal agents cannot detain people solely for apparent ethnicity, speaking Spanish, or working at specific sites like car washes.
  • Lindsay Toczylowski emphasized that the ruling makes it clear that the federal government is not exempt from the law, while Mayor Karen Bass described the outcome as a triumph for legal principles.
  • The decision preserves protections against racial profiling and signals ongoing legal opposition to the administration’s immigration enforcement tactics in Los Angeles.
