United StatesA federal judge temporarily blocked Philadelphia from enforcing a law that restricts federal officers' use of masks, concealed identification, and unmarked vehicles. The ruling by U.S. District Judge Chad Kenney came after the Justice Department challenged the measure, calling it 'blatantly unconstitutional.' The law, passed as part of a broader legislative package, aimed to address concerns over masked immigration agents conducting raids. The judge cited the Constitution's Supremacy Clause, arguing that federal law preempts local regulations.
