Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass lifted a curfew in downtown that was initially imposed to address clashes with police amid protests against President Trump's immigration enforcement. The curfew, implemented on June 10, proved effective in preventing crime and protecting local businesses. As violence and vandalism decreased, Bass gradually reduced the curfew hours. The unrest followed President Trump's decision to send national guard troops to Los Angeles in response to growing protests over his immigration policies, which intensified after his call for prioritizing deportations in Democratic cities.
