    By Mariel Ferragamo

  • DEPORTATIONSLocal Police Join ICE Deportation Force in Record Numbers Despite Warnings Program Lacks Oversight

    By Rafael Carranza and Gabriel Sandoval

    ICE officials tout an unprecedented expansion of its 287(g) Program, driven by agreements that allow local officers to function as deportation agents during routine policing. But advocates warn such agreements come at a high cost to communities.

  • IMMIGRATIONStates, Sheriffs Puzzle Over Trump’s Error-Filled List of Immigration Sanctuaries

    By Tim Henderson

    A list of 14 states, 298 counties and 200 cities deemed immigration sanctuaries by the Trump administration has disappeared from a government website but continues to hang over the heads of officials who face threats of losing federal funding. “The list is gone. Am I satisfied that it was rectified? Yes. Am I satisfied that it’s over? No,” said Sheriff Charles Blackwood of Orange County, North Carolina.

  • TRAVEL BANTrump’s Justifications for the Latest Travel Ban Aren’t Supported by the Data on Immigration and Terrorism

    By Charles Kurzman

    This travel ban, like the earlier ones, will not significantly improve national security and public safety in the United States. That’s because migrants account for a minuscule portion of violence in the U.S. And migrants from the latest travel ban countries account for an even smaller portion.

  • TRAVEL BANTrump Practically Bans Travel and Immigration from 12 Countries with Flimsy Security Justifications

    By Alex Nowrasteh

    The US government has a responsibility to keep terrorists and criminals out of the country and to remove those who make it through. But the government should pursue a rational and evidence-based approach when evaluating the threat posed by foreign nationals. The Trump administration has banned large swaths of travelers and immigrants from many countries based on evidence that it likely won’t release and, if it does, will likely raise more questions than answers.

  • DEPORTATIONS50+ Venezuelans Imprisoned in El Salvador Came to U.S. Legally, Never Violated Immigration Law

    By David J. Bier

    Shortly after the U.S. government illegally and unconstitutionally transported about 240 Venezuelans to be imprisoned in El Salvador’s notorious “terrorism” prison, a CBS News investigation found that 75 percent of the men had no criminal record in the United States or abroad. Less attention has been paid to the fact that dozens of these men never violated immigration laws either.

  • DEPORTATIONSTrump Administration Knew Vast Majority of Venezuelans Sent to Salvadoran Prison Had Not Been Convicted of U.S. Crimes

    By Mica Rosenberg, Perla Trevizo, Melissa Sanchez, Ronna Rísquez, Adrián González, and Gabriel Sandoval

    Homeland Security records reveal that the Trump administration knew that the vast majority of the 238 Venezuelan immigrants it sent to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador in mid-March had not been convicted of crimes in the United States. DHS still labeled them “terrorists” and deported them.

  • CRIMESurge of ICE Agreements with Local Police Aim to Increase Deportations, but Many Police Forces Have Found They Undermine Public Safety

    By W. Carsten Andresen

    The federal 287(g) program allows ICE to train state and local authorities to function as federal immigration officers. The use of 287(g) has surged since January, and as a criminal justice scholar, I believe this surge sets a dangerous precedent for local policing, where forging relationships and building the trust of immigrants is a proven and effective tactic in combating crime. The expansion of 287(g) will erode that trust and makes entire communities – not just immigrants – less safe.

  • IMMIGRATIONThe “Invasion” Invention: The Far Right’s Long Legal Battle to Make Immigrants the Enemy

    By Molly Redden

    The Trump administration is using the claim that immigrants have “invaded” the country to justify possibly suspending habeas corpus, part of the constitutional right to due process. A faction of the far right has been building this case for years.

  • DEPORTATIONSupreme Court allows Trump Administration to Terminate Venezuelan's Protected Status

    By Bethany Blankley, The Center Square

    The protected status was granted to roughly 600,000 Venezuelans, with one group’s status ending in April of this year and another in March of next year. The court’s decision applies to roughly 300,000 Venezuelans released into the country by the Biden administration.

  • DEPORTATIONSU.S. Supreme Court Blocks Deportations Under Alien Enemies Act

    By Brett Rowland, The Center Square

    The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday extended a previous ruling blocking the Trump administration from deporting alleged Venezuelan gang members detained in northern Texas. The Court pointedly criticized the administration’s grudging approach to due process: “Under these circumstances, notice roughly 24 hours before removal, devoid of information about how to exercise due process rights to contest that removal, surely does not pass muster.”
