What this lawsuit will do, it will ultimately help us strengthen and codify the executive orders that we put in place.

This will help strengthen these sensitive zones or vulnerable zones, churches, schools, hospitals, and the like, that would prevent ICE from establishing its raids on these spaces. (02:19–02:30)
