The Supreme Court temporarily lifted a restraining order blocking the Trump administration's immigration enforcement stops in Los Angeles. The order, issued by a lower court, prevented stops based solely on factors like race or occupation. The Supreme Court's decision allows the administration to resume its operations, which it claims are necessary to enforce immigration laws. Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson dissented, arguing the ruling could lead to unconstitutional seizures targeting Latinos. The case stemmed from lawsuits filed by individuals arrested during targeted enforcement actions.
