洛杉矶当选市长拉曼谴责移民局在医院执法 联邦检察官埃塞利回击称事实要紧
加利福尼亚州洛杉矶县洛杉矶市 Boyle Heights 社区的 Adventist Health White Memorial 医院外，11月7日爆发抗议，洛杉矶当选市长 Nithya Raman 与联邦检察官就移民执法行动公开交锋。
11月6日深夜，联邦移民与海关执法局（ICE）特工将一名被拘留者送往该院急诊部就医，医院方面称特工封堵急诊入口约两小时，导致救护车改道。Raman 7日加入医院外的抗议人群并发表声明，称特工阻碍急诊入口、拘留了两名美国公民，谴责联邦政府的做法危及洛杉矶居民。
加州中区联邦检察官办公室第一助理检察官 Bill Essayli 7日回击称，ICE 特工到医院是为一名要求就医的被拘留者提供医疗救治，抗议者制造了危险局面，执法人员逮捕了两名袭击联邦特工的人。他提醒 Raman，移民执法属联邦管辖，市长无权干预。
洛杉矶现任市长 Karen Bass 同样谴责医院发生的事件，呼吁特朗普政府停止在医疗机构进行移民执法。Raman 在选举中击败 Bass 当选市长、尚未就职，此次事件成为她与联邦政府就移民执法问题的首次公开冲突。
LA Mayor-elect Raman Condemns ICE at Hospital; Federal Prosecutor Essayli Fires Back: 'Facts Matter'
LOS ANGELES, Calif. — Protesters gathered outside Adventist Health White Memorial Medical Center in Boyle Heights, Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, California, on November 7, as Mayor-elect Nithya Raman and a federal prosecutor clashed publicly over an immigration enforcement operation.
Late on November 6, ICE agents brought a detainee to the hospital's emergency department for treatment. Hospital officials said agents blocked the emergency entrance for about two hours, forcing ambulances to be rerouted. Raman joined demonstrators outside the hospital on November 7 and said agents had obstructed the emergency entrance and detained two U.S. citizens, condemning the federal actions as reckless.
Bill Essayli, First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, fired back the same day, saying ICE was there to get medical treatment for a detainee who requested to see a doctor, that protesters created a dangerous situation, and that officers arrested two individuals who assaulted federal agents. He reminded Raman that immigration enforcement is a federal matter beyond a mayor's authority.
Outgoing Mayor Karen Bass also condemned the hospital incident and called on the Trump administration to halt immigration enforcement in and around health care facilities. Raman, who defeated Bass in the election and has not yet taken office, faces her first public clash with the federal government over immigration enforcement.
