ACLU sues for documents after immigration sweeps – California
Tagged: California, Oakland, San FranciscoPosted on: March 7th, 2007“Reports that recent federal immigration sweeps in the Bay Area may have violated the Constitution have prompted the American Civil Liberties Union to file a Freedom of Information Act request seeking records related to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency’s regional operations.
The request, filed Tuesday, seeks information on a series of immigration sweeps, which fall under the rubric “Operation Return to Sender” ”” a blitzkrieg of immigration enforcement actions that have led to the arrests of 18,000 people since June.”
