“He re-entered the country again and was charged with drug trafficking in 2019, and in 2020 illegal entry with enhancements charges were added because of his previous criminal record.”

In a unanimous opinion, Judge Ikuta wrote, “…a legislature has no duty ‘to purge its predecessor’s allegedly discriminatory intent’.”
