Raids in Southern California rattle immigrant communities — including those in the US legally
June 10, 2025
Immigration raids across Southern California are rattling the area’s immigrant communities, even among those in the country legally. More than 100 people have been detained since Friday, inspiring days of turbulent protests across the region and beyond and leading President Donald Trump to deploy National Guard troops and Marines to the LA area. In Orange County, a day laborer said he started carrying his green card everywhere. And during a news conference Monday, the family members of detained workers in Los Angeles urged officials to uphold the city and the state of California as places of sanctuary for immigrants.
