Sotomayor Criticizes Kavanaugh Over Immigration Stops Ruling
Justice Sonia Sotomayor has publicly criticized Justice Brett Kavanaugh for his concurrence in a Supreme Court order that allowed immigration enforcement sweeps in Los Angeles to resume. Speaking at the University of Kansas School of Law, Sotomayor argued that Kavanaugh's view fails to consider the real-world impact of such enforcement actions on individuals, particularly hourly workers. She emphasized that even brief detentions can have significant financial consequences. Sotomayor's remarks highlight her ongoing commitment to addressing issues of fairness and justice in immigration policy.
