A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to halt its indiscriminate immigration raids across California.
The order was made in response to a filing from immigrant advocacy groups accusing the administration of systematically targeting brown-skinned people in Southern California—leading to incidents like Marines detaining a veteran of Angolan and Portuguese heritage who was on his way to the Department of Veterans Affairs—as the Trump administration ramps up its immigration crackdown with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids across the country.
The advocacy groups asked the judge to block the administration from using “unconstitutional tactics” in immigration raids, including detaining people on the basis of race and denying detainees access to legal counsel.
