California has tried that and are being challenged by the USDOJ in court over it.

I think states should put to the courts, the question of whether the administration's practice of deploying poorly trained immigration officers at Trump's discretion to places he doesn't like is in line with reasonable objectives of enforcing federal immigration law. Because so far it has lead to violent escalations, injuries and deaths caused by the mere presence of the operation at a scale not seen from this agency previously.
