When the Supreme Court dismantled Roe v. Wade in June 2022, Jodie Sweetin made a promise: “This will not deter us,” she said after a video of her being violently shoved to the ground by LAPD officers at an abortion rights protest went viral. “We will continue fighting for our rights.”

Now, three years later, she’s still showing up — this time at protests against ICE raids that have torn through Los Angeles communities in recent weeks.

On June 11, Sweetin was seen walking among demonstrators in downtown LA, dressed in all black with a baseball cap, ski goggles, and a COVID-style face mask. A 13-second TikTok clip shows her carrying a megaphone as a fan yells out, prompting Sweetin to smile, offer a quick “Hey man, what’s up?” and return to the crowd. When someone later thanked her on Instagram for using her “platform to speak against these unlawful ICE kidnappings,” Sweetin confirmed it was her behind the mask: “Thank youuuuuu!! Much love,” she wrote. “On the front lines in LA.”

Sweetin’s appearance came days after ICE agents stormed multiple locations in the LA area — including factories in the downtown garment district — detaining workers, many of whom may not have had time to contact family or legal counsel. Over the weekend, protests erupted across the city.

The federal response was swift and violent. In Paramount, protesters attempting to block deportation buses were met with flash-bang grenades, tear gas, and so-called “less-lethal” munitions, per LA Public Press. At least 100 people were arrested over three days. One protester was struck by a federal vehicle. Another, labor leader David Huerta, was detained and reportedly injured while observing the scene.

These weren’t isolated incidents — they were part of an escalating immigration crackdown ordered by the Trump administration. According to ICE’s own leadership, raids will now take place “every day in L.A.”

In the days following the raids, other celebrities joined Sweetin in condemning the crackdown. Chrissy Teigen, who has long been outspoken on immigration, reposted video of the arrests on her Instagram Stories with the caption: “We fight for the rights of immigrants not because they are “hard working” (which places their value in the labor they provide) but because they are human beings who deserve to be treated with diginity.”

Mark Ruffalo took to his IG stories, writing, “You want to get rid of the people who are picking your food, without a care in the world for who is poisoning your bodies with chemicals that aren’t meant to ever be in nature. You want to drive out those who make your life easier but do not question those who dull your minds with lies and disinformation meant to confuse you and destroy brotherly and sisterly love for us here? You are pointing your guns in the wrong direction.”

Singer Becky G, who grew up in Inglewood, posted earlier this week, saying “The people being attacked today are not ‘illegal aliens,’ they are human beings with RIGHTS,. We must understand that an attack on them is an attack on OUR DEMOCRACY and an attack on what this country was made to stand for,” per Los Angeles Times.

Their messages echoed what many organizers on the ground had already been saying: These raids are not just about immigration enforcement — they’re about fear, power, and erasure. And they’re being met with resistance from everyday Angelenos who are choosing to show up, whether they’ve lived here for decades or just joined the fight.

For Sweetin, that resistance has never been a performance. It’s a long-haul commitment. As she said in 2022, “We will continue fighting for our rights.” And in 2025, she still is.
