Los Angeles, June 11, 2025: A curfew has been imposed in Los Angeles, California, following five days of intense protests against President Donald Trump’s immigration policies. The curfew, effective from 8 PM Tuesday (June 10) to 6 AM Wednesday, was announced by Mayor Karen Bass to curb vandalism and looting in the downtown area.
Mayor Bass stated in a press conference that the decision was made due to significant damage caused by the protests, with plans to discuss the curfew’s duration with elected officials and law enforcement. Emergency services personnel and those commuting to work are exempt from the curfew.
The protests stem from Trump’s aggressive immigration crackdown, with 118 immigrants detained in Los Angeles since Friday. The Trump administration has deployed approximately 700 U.S. Marines and 4,000 National Guard members to control the situation. According to the U.S. military, the Marines will remain temporarily until additional National Guard members arrive.
California Governor Gavin Newsom has criticized the deployment as “unjustified” and “provocative,” filing a lawsuit against Trump, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and the Department of Defense in San Francisco’s federal court on Monday. The lawsuit claims that the deployment of troops without state consultation is unconstitutional.
