HUD Offices Shut Down Amid Anti-ICE Violence Weeks After Waters' Trump Threat Claim
Anti-ICE riots force three Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) field offices to close in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York City, following comments from Congresswoman Maxine Waters that the Trump administration would have closed them.
Three Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) field offices in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and New York City have temporarily closed due to violent protests sparked by anti-ICE sentiments, following a claim made by Rep. Maxine Waters that Trump would close the offices weeks prior. The closures are a result of the ongoing tensions between law enforcement officials and community members opposed to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activities. No further details on reopening or potential security measures have been announced. The situation remains fluid with HUD officials urging calm and seeking a peaceful resolution to the crisis.
