ICE Cracks Down: 10,000 Arrests Made in Five Days Following Birthright Citizenship Ruling
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement made 10,000 arrests in five days following the Supreme Court's ruling on birthright citizenship, a blow to President Trump's efforts to curb immigration.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has made 10,000 arrests in five days amid the Supreme Court's decision on birthright citizenship, a ruling that delivered a significant blow to former President Trump's efforts to curb illegal immigration. The surge in enforcement is seen as an attempt by ICE to capitalize on the new precedent set by the court. The agency has been increasing its activity as part of a strategy to maximize its gains from the current legal landscape. This latest move comes as a response to the court's ruling that stripped citizenship from children born in the US to undocumented immigrants.
