U.S. citizen wrongfully detained twice in Alabama workplace raids sues immigration authorities

A U.S. citizen, Leo Garcia Venegas, is suing the Trump administration over alleged unconstitutional immigration raids targeting construction sites. Venegas, detained twice within weeks despite presenting a valid U.S. ID, claims agents targeted workers based on appearance. The lawsuit, filed by the Institute for Justice, seeks to end workplace raids conducted without warrants or specific suspicion, arguing they violate citizens' rights. This action follows recent Supreme Court decisions impacting immigration enforcement tactics.
