LA Schools to ICE: You Need a Hall Pass to Enforce Immigration Law

Posted by Matt O'Brien | May 11, 2017

In a disturbing new display of both arrogance and ignorance, the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) has stated that: “No immigration officers will be allowed on campus without clearance from the superintendent of schools, who will consult with district lawyers. Until that happens, they won’t be let in, even if they arrive with a legally valid subpoena.”

Newsflash: The Department of Homeland Security is a federal law enforcement agency with nationwide jurisdiction. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers don’t need the permission of school officials to enter a public building in furtherance of their duties. Section 287 of the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) confers very broad law enforcement powers upon both ICE and CBP officers, including the authority to interrogate, without warrant, any persons believed to be an alien as to their right to be or to remain in the United States.

Make no mistake about it: this kind of situation requires a demonstration of the power and supremacy of the federal government, insofar as enforcement of immigration law is concerned.

If I was in charge of ICE in that district, I'd call the cameras, have warrants ready, and MARCH RIGHT INTO one of the schools there in a show of force, jackboots and all.

Then see what the LAUSD does about it.
