Supreme Court Lifts ICE Migrant Profiling Ban in LA for Now

Federal immigration agents in Los Angeles can resume using tactics for now that critics say amount to racial profiling, after the US Supreme Court backed the Trump administration’s aggressive enforcement efforts.

Over three dissents from the court’s liberal-leaning justices, the conservative majority on Monday put on hold a federal district court order that barred Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from questioning and detaining people based solely on their ethnicity, language, occupation or presence at a particular location.
