The Trump administration has sued the City of Los Angeles for discriminating against federal immigration officers.
President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a lawsuit Monday against Los Angeles, its mayor Karen Bass, and the Los Angeles City Council for “illegal” sanctuary city policies that it says “deliberately impede federal immigration officers’ ability to carry out their responsibilities.”
This move comes weeks after the city erupted in protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids. These protests quickly turned violent following Trump’s decision to deploy thousands of California National Guard troops to Los Angeles without notifying California Gov. Gavin Newsom or Bass.
