Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf’s warning that U.S. immigration officers were preparing to conduct a major enforcement operation in the Bay Area as soon as Sunday put advocates for immigrants on alert and heightened the tension between federal and local authorities over California’s limited cooperation with deportation efforts.
