Report finds 505 US citizens detained by ICE
Original: 505 US Citizens detained by ICE -Pro=Publica One of the hallmarks of being a US citizen is the freedom to travel freely
ProPublica reports that ICE has detained 505 United States citizens, undermining a basic expectation that Americans can move freely within and beyond US borders. Commenters say airports and public protests have become unsafe for people perceived as foreign, particularly people of colour. The report is fuelling debate over immigration enforcement overreach and the mistaken detention of citizens by federal agents.
Why now: New reporting documents US citizens being wrongly detained by immigration authorities, raising civil rights concerns.
