California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) on Friday celebrated a ruling from a federal judge that bars the Trump administration from using “unconstitutional” immigration enforcement efforts in several Golden State counties.
U.S. District Judge Maame E. Frimpong, an appointee of former President Biden, granted two temporary restraining orders preventing officials from targeting individuals for removal based on their race, language or employment and requiring the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to grant detainees access to legal counsel.
Newsom hailed the ruling in a Friday post on social media, saying “Justice prevailed today.” “The court’s decision puts a temporary stop to federal immigration officials violating people’s rights and racial profiling,” he wrote in a statement posted to social platform X. “California stands with the law and the Constitution — and I call on the Trump Administration to do the same.”
In a separate post shared from Newsom’s press office account, the governor called out President Trump’s deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller, saying his immigration agenda is “one of chaos, cruelty and fear.” “Instead of targeting the most dangerous people, federal officials have been arbitrarily detaining Americans and hardworking people, ripping families apart, and disappearing people into cruel detention to meet outrageous arrest quotas without regard to due process and constitutional rights that protect all of us from cruelty and injustice,” the X post reads. “That should stop now.”
