A federal pass trial has ordered it to be stopped through Trump’s management enforcing immigration policies at worship sites owned by Quakers, Cooperative Baptists and Sikhs.

Democracy Forward, in a press release, Monday’s resolution came here after filing a lawsuit on behalf of the Baptist Fellowship Cooperative (1,400 churches serving 750,000 Baptists), Gurdwara Sahib West Sacramento (serving 30,000 Sikhs) and six Quaker meetings.

U. S. District Judge Theodore Chuang granted a limited transitory order requested through teams challenging Trump’s policy, allowing for immigration enforcement in Adoration’s Put, as reported via CBS News.

The ruling only protects the sites of worship used through the Quakers, the cooperative Baptist bag and the Sikh temple, all devotees put into the country.

Justice Chuang, an Obama appointee, found that the Trump administration’s policy had discouraged attendance at worship services, affecting not only undocumented immigrants, but also those with legal standing who feared they were wrong.

The app is said to have “severe and negative” meetings

The court decided that this policy likely violated the rights of devout teams under the First Amendment and the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

In its 59-page opinion, Pass’s judgment explained that the enforcement of immigration under the 2025 policy would have “significantly and negatively” been devout manifestations by reducing attendance. He added that having “officers armed with law enforcement” in worship would prevent Quakers and Sikhs from “following their devout ideals or worshipping freely. “

The Court ruled that the policy of 2025 is a makeup for devout equipment through the interruption of immigrants and services. The trial of his judgment said that he is exercising “substantial pressure” to those teams, which forces them to replace their practices by prevention of worship with a “larger and more varied organization of the faithful” and restrict the key facets of their faith.

As a result, Pass’s trial ordered Trump’s management to repair the 2021 memorandum note to former National Secretary of Alejandro Mayorkas, who prohibited the application of safe “special protection” locations, adding schools, medical facilities and worship positions.

The memorandum under pressure that deserves the application of worship houses of having been shy away from “as much as possible. ” The Extra Court ordered the Department of National Security under Trump to adhere to the 2021 memorandum by enforcing immigration regulations in worship sites of those devout groups.

However, Chuang’s resolution still arrests or closes to worship puts if a warrant is issued.

“For decades, the Passvernment has identified that all, regardless of immigration prestige, can attend houses of worship without concern of a passage of pass without a court order. Religious establishments do not have to approve the courts to combat for the right to worship and freely associate that it is locked in our Constitution,” Skye Perryman, President and CEO of Democracy, Ruleing to the ruling.

The Reverend Paul Baxley, executive coordinator of the Baptist Cooperative Scholarship, also congratulated the resolution: “Today’s resolution is a hard association of the values ​​that have explained the Baptist Cooperative Scholarship: a Company’s commitment to freedom, the autonomy of the local Church and the transparent separation of the Church and the State. “

On Jan. 20, his first day in office, Trump revoked the Biden-era memorandum of memo, with a directive noting that “lightline rules” on immigration enforcement are unnecessary.

National security defended the decision, arguing that “criminals will no longer be able to hide in American schools and churches” and that police use “common sense. “
