California's attorney general has filed a lawsuit against the City of El Cajon, alleging its police department has repeatedly violated state law by sharing license plate reader data with law enforcement agencies in other states. The lawsuit comes at a time of heightened concern for immigrants and women seeking reproductive care. Once data leaves California, it can be accessed by agencies in states with different policies regarding immigration or abortion. California law allows the use of license plate readers to help solve crimes, but agencies can't share the data with federal or out-of-state authorities. El Cajon's mayor called the lawsuit an overreach by the state.
