In response to past allegations of unlawful immigration sweeps, the Border Patrol is implementing new legal guidelines for arrest procedures. These changes, initiated under the Trump administration, require agents to establish probable cause for arrests and document specific facts leading to vehicle stops. A senior official has emphasized training for over 900 agents to ensure compliance with these updated guidelines, which mirrors long-standing laws. Skepticism remains, however, about whether these changes will be effectively enforced, as indicated by critiques from legal representatives and advocacy groups.
Accordingly, [Border Patrol]'s prompt, responsive, and demonstrated commitment to forestalling similar alleged violations in the future renders an injunction inappropriate, either as a matter of mootness or lack of a cognizable continued and future irreparable injury.
It's just a pinky swear" said Elizabeth Strater, national vice president at the United Farm Workers, suggesting skepticism about Border Patrol's new adherence to legal guidelines.
