Federal judge blocks California law forcing ICE agents to remove masks during operations

Federal judge blocks California law forcing ICE agents to remove masks during operations

A Los Angeles‑based federal judge on Monday blocked California from enforcing its law that would require ICE agents to remove masks during immigration enforcement operations.

Judge Christina Snyder, appointed during the Clinton administration, argued that the « No Secret Police Act » and « No Vigilantes Act » discriminated against the federal government by violating the Supremacy Clause.

Under the U.S. Constitution’s Supremacy Clause, federal law takes precedence over any conflicting state or local law, rendering the lower-level law unenforceable.
