An April 28, 2025 lawsuit filed on behalf of an Oregon-based Latinx organization and faith groups from other states cites ICE activity at two Los Angeles elementary schools last month, as well as parents’ fears of sending their children to school in other locations across the country. Plaintiffs also included reports of attendance rates that “dropped in half” and an “influx of parents picking up their children” from school mid-day.
The lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District Court of Oregon’s Eugene Division and is focused on the Trump administration’s Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) policy allowing raids on school grounds and other sensitive locations.
