Trump Admin Sues Los Angeles Over Sanctuary Law

Trump Admin Sues Los Angeles Over Sanctuary Law

The US government, under the Trump administration, is suing Los Angeles over its "sanctuary law."

This law stops local police from helping federal immigration officers.

The government thinks this is against the law because it treats federal immigration differently.

The city believes this law helps protect immigrants.

This is part of a larger disagreement between the federal government and cities that don't want to fully cooperate with immigration enforcement.
