SUMMARY: President Trump ordered the deployment of 2,000 California National Guard troops to Los Angeles amid escalating clashes between federal immigration agents and protesters in Paramount and surrounding areas. Protesters faced tear gas, flash-bangs, and arrests as immigration sweeps continued, with over 100 immigrant arrests in a week. Gov. Gavin Newsom criticized the deployment as inflammatory and unnecessary, while the White House framed it as a response to “lawlessness.” Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth warned of potential active-duty Marine involvement if violence persists. Demonstrations involved confrontations, property damage, and arrests, including a union leader detained during protests. Tensions remain high over immigration enforcement actions.

SUMMARY: A group of Texas lawmakers urged higher education leaders to protect undocumented students’ access to in-state tuition after Texas ended the 2001 Dream Act following a federal lawsuit. The Justice Department sued, claiming the law violated federal immigration rules, and Texas did not contest, causing its repeal. Lawmakers requested a temporary “provisional classification” to allow affected students to pay expected tuition this fall, preserving fairness during the transition. About 19,000 students are impacted. Critics warn this move risks losing talent and harms the economy, recalling that the Dream Act was originally passed for economic and workforce benefits.
