El Cajon sues California Attorney General over sanctuary law SB 54
The city of El Cajon filed a lawsuit in San Diego County challenging California's Senate Bill 54, a 2017 sanctuary law that limits local police cooperation with federal immigration authorities. The lawsuit was prompted by a February 2025 incident in which federal authorities warned the city that 52 children may have been sex trafficking victims, but state policy prevented local officials from coordinating with ICE.
