Trump administration sues Los Angeles over sanctuary city' immigration policies

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration has sued the city of Los Angeles over its immigration policies, claiming that the city's law discriminates against federal law enforcement by treating them differently from other law enforcement authorities. The lawsuit was filed in the Central District of California, and notes up top that Donald Trump "campaigned and won the presidential election on a platform of deporting the millions of illegal immigrants the previous administration permitted, through its open borders policy, to enter the country unlawfully." The suit claims that Los Angeles' law and policies obstruct the enforcement of immigration laws. "Sanctuary policies were the driving cause of the violence, chaos, and attacks on law enforcement that Americans recently witnessed in Los Angeles," Attorney General Pamela Bondi said in a statement. "Jurisdictions like Los Angeles that flout federal law by prioritizing illegal aliens over American citizens are undermining law enforcement at every level — it ends under President Trump."
