US federal judiciary, Department of Homeland Security/immigration agencies, state and local event organizers, businesses in hospitality and retail, and the general public. Heat warnings may persist through the weekend, prompting adjustments in event staffing and pricing; immigration enforcement could face further legal challenges; policymakers may review detention protocols and consider heat‑mitigation measures for public gatherings.
