Federal authorities raided Ambiance Apparel, a Los Angeles clothing company, arresting over 40 immigrant workers, including floor manager Jose Ortiz. Families protested, citing lack of contact and due process concerns. Ambiance, with a history of legal issues including money laundering and tax evasion convictions, maintains it complies with hiring laws. The raid sparked civil unrest, leading to National Guard deployment. Labor leader David Huerta, also arrested, was released on bail. Families are pleading for the release of their loved ones and highlighting the hardship caused by their detention.
