· KRGV (NBC 5)
The U.S. Department of Justice is suing four states—Maine, Massachusetts, Oregon, and Washington—over their refusal to issue undercover license plates to federal agents. The DOJ claims these states are imposing unconstitutional restrictions that hinder law enforcement and jeopardize agent safety. State officials argue their policies aim to protect citizens from aggressive tactics used by federal agents. The lawsuits assert that the states are obstructing federal immigration enforcement, which is a federal power. Maine's Secretary of State and other officials defend their decisions, stating they prioritize safety and constitutional rights over federal demands.
