United States President Donald Trump is legally going after Los Angeles in a new lawsuit over the latter’s sanctuary city policies, which Trump argues are uncooperative and unlawful. The Trump administration filed the lawsuit on June 30 against the city of Los Angeles,

The complaint targets the so-called "sanctuary city" ordinance, alleging it hampers the crackdown on a "crisis of illegal immigration."
