The story is the same across Los Angeles county, home to countless communities that are heavily Latino and full of immigrant families or families with mixed status. Local news site L.A. Taco reports that many taco stands are temporarily closing, a staple food for workers across the city. (Their concerns are entirely reasonable: as L.A. Taco reported, an ICE raid on Jason's Tacos in East Los Angeles last week targeted both the taqueros, all of whom were abducted, and their customers.)
MacArthur Park, an area known for a huge number of vendors selling clothes, food and household wares to immigrant families, is also much quieter than usual. The enormous produce market in downtown Los Angeles--which supplies individuals as well as restaurants--is empty and full of rotting food, ABC 7 reported this week, with immigrant customers too afraid to show up to shop.
