The temporary restraining order blocks sweeping immigration raids in seven California counties, including Los Angeles and Ventura Counties.

Los Angeles and seven other cities have joined a civil rights lawsuit against the ongoing operations of Immigration and Customs Enforcement in the county. The American Civil Liberties Union and other groups filed the case on Monday in the U.

The plaintiffs say ICE's practice of arresting people without a warrant and holding them without determining whether or not they are a flight risk is illegal.

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass announced Tuesday that the city will join a lawsuit against the Trump administration intended to stop federal immigration raids.

Trump called National Guard troops and U.S. Marines into Los Angeles in June in response to protests against the immigration raids, marking an extraordinary use of military force to support civilian police operations within the United States. The raids are part of the Republican president's hardline approach toward immigration.
