Los Angeles has blocked airport police and firefighters from co-operating with federal immigration agents.

The latest directive is the city’s most aggressive bid yet to oppose President Trump’s tough crackdown and protect illegal immigrants from immigration officials.

Mayor Eric Garcetti declared it was ‘un-American’ to ‘demonize’ their neighbors simply because they are foreign, as the city beefed up its ‘sanctuary city’ status.

The Los Angeles Police Department already prohibits police from asking for the legal status of a suspect even if they have probable cause.

‘In Los Angeles, we don’t separate people from their families because it’s inhumane,’ Eric Garcetti said on Tuesday.

‘In Los Angeles, we don’t demonize our hardworking neighbors just because they speak another language or come from another country. That’s un-American.’

His words come after a wave of similar measures by cities and states to rebuff Trump’s administration’s immigration measures.
