How did the Supreme Court decision enable ICE to resume aggressive immigration sweeps in Los Angeles?
Live from MPR News in Washington, I'm Shay Stevens. The US Supreme Court Has cleared the way for ICE and border patrol agents to resume aggressive emigration sweeps in Los Angeles. As NPR's Adrian Florido reports, the High Court lifted a lower court decision. That had prevented agents from engaging in racial profiling.
In July, a federal judge in Los Angeles said immigration agents could not target people based solely on factors like their race, accents, or occupations. Agents had to scale back aggressive roundups in which they'd chased day laborers through hardware store parking lots and rounded up street vendors and car wash workers.
