Protesters in the town of Murrieta, upset with the federal government's diversion of undocumented immigrants for processing there, appear to have stopped the program, for now. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) had been sending about 300 immigrants a week to Murrieta to relieve pressure on border stations in the wake of a recent immigration surge. While it's not clear what happens next, the pause provides some relief for non-profit groups and churches who've been helping the area absorb the influx.
