Los Angeles’ mayor and leaders from several immigrant rights groups on Monday denounced the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to allow federal immigration agents to racially profile people in Southern California, calling it a blow to civil rights.

The high court granted the Trump administration’s emergency request to lift a temporary restraining order issued by U.S. District Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong that barred government agents from engaging in “roving patrols” and detaining people based on their appearance.
