ICE Shifts to Targeted, Low-Profile Arrests Amid Record Enforcement Levels
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has shifted its enforcement strategy from large, visible raids to quicker, low-profile arrests at everyday locations like petrol stations, airports, and workplaces. This approach involves increased collaboration with local police through expanded 287(g) agreements and focuses on predictable points of contact such as courthouses and jails. Despite changes in tactics, ICE arrests reached a record high of nearly 50,000 in July, reflecting intensified enforcement efforts supported by increased staffing and funding.
