A year after a major ICE worksite raid at Ambiance Apparel in Los Angeles' Fashion District, former workers—many from Zapotec Indigenous communities—continue to struggle. Over 40 workers were detained in June of the previous year, with some deported and others out on bond but unable to work while their immigration cases remain pending. A news conference marking the anniversary highlighted the ongoing hardships faced by those affected.
