The Trump administration on Thursday asked the Supreme Court to halt a court order restricting immigration stops that swept up at least two U.S. citizens in Southern California. The emergency petition comes after an appeals court refused to lift a temporary restraining order barring authorities from stopping or arresting people based solely on factors like what language speak or where they work.

The Trump administration wants agents to use several profiling factors during immigration raids in LA, arguing that speaking Spanish or working in construction is more likely to mean a person is in the United States without permission.

A lower court had ordered agents not to make indiscriminate stops relying on factors like race or speaking Spanish.
