- Justice Department sues Philadelphia over law regulating ICE operations
The Trump administration's Justice Department has sued Philadelphia over a local law restricting federal immigration agents' operations in the city. The law mandates visible identification, prohibits masks, and limits the use of unmarked vehicles by law enforcement, including ICE agents. The lawsuit claims cities lack authority to regulate federal officers and is part of a broader effort to counter local policies perceived as hindering immigration enforcement.
