The Trump administration has petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to lift a federal judge's order that restricts immigration enforcement operations in the Los Angeles area. The administration seeks to resume large-scale immigration raids, which opponents argue involve racial profiling based on factors such as race, ethnicity, language, or occupation. According to the filing, approximately 10% of residents in the targeted district are undocumented immigrants. The administration's crackdown also includes detaining individuals with revoked legal work permits and pending asylum claims. This enforcement push has led to a reduction of the illegal immigrant population by 1.6 million, according to Census Bureau data, and has caused concerns about workforce disruptions and anxiety within immigrant communities, including in Salisbury, Maryland. Additionally, the crackdown has involved the firing of immigration judges and has prompted congressional scrutiny of the legislation enabling these mass deportations.
Sounds like Trump's deportation operations are working. https://t.co/DkpL8Wsaj8
