U.S. Tells Judge It Will Appeal ICE Restrictions in Minneapolis
The New York Times • • general
Key Points:
- The Trump administration is appealing a judge’s injunction that restricts immigration agents' interactions with protesters in Minnesota, challenging the limits at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit.
- The injunction, issued by Judge Kate M. Menendez, prohibits federal agents from retaliating against peaceful protesters, using pepper spray or crowd dispersal tools in response to protected speech, and detaining protesters in vehicles unless they obstruct agents.
- The lawsuit leading to the injunction alleges that federal officers repeatedly violated protesters' rights when they observed, recorded, or opposed immigration enforcement actions.
- Judge Menendez did not grant all plaintiff demands, notably excluding specific protections for recording agents and rules on dispersal orders.
- The Department of Homeland Security
