The Supreme Court granted the Trump administration’s request on Monday to remove restrictions surrounding Los Angeles immigration raids.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote in a concurring opinion that the judiciary “does not set immigration policy or decide enforcement priorities.”
“The interests of individuals who are illegally in the country in avoiding being stopped by law enforcement for questioning is ultimately an interest in evading the law,” Kavanaugh wrote. “That is not an especially weighty legal interest.”
The administration asked the justices in August to block a district court judge’s order preventing reliance on relying on race, location, type of work or speaking Spanish when making immigration stops. They argued the judge should not be able to “micromanage” immigration enforcement, especially when one in every 10 individuals in the area is an illegal alien.
Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented.
