LA immigration raids blocked: Leaders reactA federal judge has granted a temporary restraining order, blocking sweeping immigration raids in counties like Los Angeles, saying agents need to have probable cause to arrest people, and that those in custody need access to lawyers.
The ACLU's federal lawsuit claims the Trump administration's aggressive immigration enforcement operations violate the Constitution.
The judge said there was "a mountain of evidence" that federal agents had arrested people solely based on characteristics such as race, employment and accent.
The temporary restraining order blocks sweeping immigration raids in seven California counties, including Los Angeles and Ventura Counties.
The order on Friday temporarily blocked the Trump administration from conducting the arrests without “reasonable suspicion” that its targets were in the country illegally.
