Los Angeles leaders said that the city would include a lawsuit against the Trump administration on the immigration raid in the local area on Tuesday.
The city will join the US Civil Liberty Union in sueing the federal government, alleging that the officials are “using an illegal strategy, which is an illegal strategy to get their arrest numbers”.
“The federal government has focused thousands of armed immigration agents, many of which lack visible identity in our communities, and to military soldiers, unconstitutional raids, roundups and anonymous details, sowing of fear and anarchy among our residents,” Heidi Feldstein Soto, City Attorney, said in a Tuesday.
“Intervening today’s speed suggests that we will not stand and will allow these impressions to continue or become a standard operating process in our communities.”
The Homeland Security Department did not immediately respond to Hill’s request to comment on the matter.
Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and California village Gavin Newsome (D) have participated in an attempt to protest against immigration policies against the decision to send National Guard soldiers to Los Angeles last month against the President’s decision.
“I have said that I think this is an experiment. I think LA is a Petri dish, and they are essentially pressurizing the envelope how far the American people will tolerate the federal seizure of power from a governor and this random thing has a way to create terror and luck and fear in our community.”
He said, “It is having a deep economic impact. It is clearly impressing and traumatizing families, and it is to serve a political agenda, any of which is nothing positive with our city,” he said.
The group gathered for several days to share resentment over the recent immigration raids, resulting in dozens of arrests, but Bass said they were incorrectly characteristic.
“The” riots that have never happened. We had some incidents of vandalism and looting, but the way it was painted at the national level was in flames like the entire city, “Bass told reporters.
He compared the La riots of 1992 after the acquittal of police officers in the beating of Rodney King, saying he was “completely and 100 percent inappropriate”.
The mayor of the surrounding area joined the bass on Tuesday to call the Trump administration for alleged violation of the constitutional rights of the residents.
“The lawsuit attempts to keep federal agencies, including Montbello Mayor Salvador Menandez,, which includes the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which is accountable to policies and practices violating the fourth and tenth amendments of the Constitution and Administrative Procedure Act of the United States Act.”
He said, “and let me be clear, we cannot allow families to be torn without any procedure, and we cannot remain silent, while our residents’ constitutional rights have been trampled,” he said.
