A federal judge on Friday ordered the Trump administration to temporarily halt immigration raids in Los Angeles and several other counties in California, after ruling in favor of the American Civil Liberties Union’s civil rights lawsuit.

“As required by the Fourth Amendment of the United States Constitution, Defendants shall be enjoined from conducting detentive stops in this District unless the agent or officer has reasonable suspicion that the person to be stopped is within the United States in violation of U.S. immigration law,” U.S. District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong wrote in her ruling.

      You’re joking but this is more or less the law with minor exceptions. Basically everywhere near an airport is covered so it’s mostly remote areas that are not.

      Edit: or maybe I misremembered? I can’t find anything on the airports.
