Supreme Court Lifts Restrictions on L.A. Immigration Stops - The New York Times Highlight

Justice Kavanaugh said the four factors identified by Judge Frimpong can play a role in determining whom to stop. For instance, he wrote, unauthorized immigrants often work as day laborers in landscaping, agriculture or construction and “many of those illegally in the Los Angeles area come from Mexico or Central America and do not speak much English.”

Apparent ethnicity by itself is not a permissible reason to stop someone, he added, but it can be a relevant consideration in combination with other factors.
