California City Terminates Contract With ICE Amid LA Protests
This is great news and I'm hoping more cities follow but I understand it when they said it's not a decision taken lightly.

The city has said that the facility will be designated for local law enforcement use only. Officials also noted their continued focus on public safety, transparency, and equitable treatment for all individuals, irrespective of immigration status.
President Donald Trump's administration is pushing forward with plans to carry out what they described as the largest mass deportation operation in U.S. history and has conducted numerous ICE raids.
Newsweek has revealed dozens of cases in which non-violent offenders have been detained by federal authorities.
Although these raids are being conducted under federal legal authority, protests erupted following reports emerged that detainees were being held in the basement of a federal building. ICE has denied these claims, with a spokesperson previously telling Newsweek that the agency "categorically refutes the assertions made by immigration activists in Los Angeles."
