ICE conducted a raid in Newark, New Jersey, detaining undocumented residents and US citizens, sparking concerns about mass deportations. The Trump administration announced plans to expand expedited removals, allowing for quicker deportations without a hearing before an immigration judge. Critics argue this increases the risk of wrongfully deporting individuals.
Officials in Newark, New Jersey, where ICE "targeted enforcement operation" took place Thursday night, said the arrests were illegal.and published new rules making it easier to remove people — part of a flurry of actions to make good on campaign promises to crack down on illegal immigration. Amid officials’ latest show of force, waves of worry reverberated in parts of the country, with's administration portrayed U.S.
Trump birthright citizenship order could leave U.S.-born babies of asylum-seekers ‘stateless,' attorneys say “When I got this information I was appalled, upset, angry that this would happen here, in this state, in this country,” Baraka, a Democrat who is seeking the party’s nomination for governor, said at a news conference. “We’re going to fight for all of our residents in this city, no matter what that looks like for us.”
Amy Torres, executive director of New Jersey Alliance for Immigrant Justice, disputed that what happened Thursday was a targeted approach, saying that type of language suggests “some deep intel and prior investigation.” She said her organization got a call when ICE arrived. She and other officials declined to identify the business, but the owner of Ocean Seafood Depot spoke to reporters, saying the government should go after “bad people, not working people.”The Trump administration said Friday that it was expanding the use of “expedited removal” authority so it can be used across the country starting right away.
Critics have said there’s too much risk that people who have the right to be in the country will be mistakenly swept up by agents and officers and that not enough is done to protect migrants who have genuine reason to fear being sent home. Friday’s notice said the person put into expedited removal “bears the affirmative burden to show to the satisfaction of an immigration officer” that they have the right to be in the U.S.
