Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents served warrants at several worksites across Los Angeles on June 6 after a judge found probable cause that employers were using fictitious documents for illegal workers. Instead of working with federal law enforcement agencies conducting lawful arrests, Mayor Karen Bass issued a statement accusing the agents of sowing “terror.” She additionally promised to work with “immigrant rights community organizations” to coordinate a response, warning, “We will not stand for this.” Later, David Huerta, who is president of the Service Employees International Union of California, was arrested at a worksite for obstructing federal officers.
