A federal judge has ruled that Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s enforcement actions at construction sites in Alabama likely violate the Constitution, and barred ICE from conducting raids there without warrants.
The case was prompted by detentions tied to jobsite raids involving an Alabama Latino U.S. citizen who works as a concrete worker, according to the source material.
The ruling and injunction apply in Alabama and were reported on Oct. 9, 2026, by Engineering News-Record.
The underlying issue centers on ICE activity in construction, where warrantless raids were challenged after the detentions raised constitutional concerns.
Engineering News-Record reported the decision in its article, citing the judge’s order as the basis for the new restriction.
