AG Bonta and AG Weiser today filed an amicus brief in support of litigation challenging Immigration and Custom Enforcement’s (ICE) unlawful policy and practice of warrantless civil immigration arrests without probable cause. The brief highlights the harms of the Trump Administration’s mass deportation campaign, an integral part of which is unlawful warrantless arrests.
“The Trump Administration has sought to instill fear in immigrant communities through indiscriminate, sweeping, and often baseless immigration arrests. This violates the law — and basic human decency. […] We will always stand up for the rights of our immigrant communities and communities across the country.” – AG Bonta
