Long Beach has canceled its annual Día de los Muertos parade for 2025, citing fears among community members that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) could target the public event. Although city officials say they are not aware of any specific plans to enforce immigration law at the parade, the decision was made “out of an abundance of caution” because of the parade’s size and public visibility.
Washington, D.C., will host a major patriotic display on Saturday, June 14, marking the U.S. Army’s 250th anniversary. The celebration, coinciding with President Trump’s 79th birthday and Flag Day, promises to be a high-profile event spotlighting American military strength and national pride.
