Muskegon City Commissioner Jay Kilgo brought forward a resolution denouncing racial profiling by federal immigration agents and recognizing Constitution Week during the Sept. 23 city meeting.
Kayla TuckerMUSKEGON, MI - Muskegon officials voted to denounce racial profiling in law and immigration enforcement during the Muskegon City Commission meeting on Tuesday.
The decision comes weeks after a U.S. Supreme Court decision earlier this month that reversed a lower court order blocking federal immigration agents from stopping individuals based on ethnicity and other factors.
Kozal added that the denouncing of racial profiling is not just for federal law enforcement.
The Supreme Court decision made way for federal agents to perform sweeping immigration checks after methods drew concern in Los Angeles amid crackdowns under President Donald Trump.
