Federal data compiled by the Deportation Data Project shows arrests by ICE agents in New York rose from 927 in May to 1,193 in June and 1,567 in July. The figures point to a steep escalation of immigration enforcement under the Trump administration, and reports also indicate at least two dozen people have been shot at by federal immigration agents involved in the operations.

Why now: New federal statistics reveal a dramatic month-on-month escalation in immigration arrests and enforcement violence in New York.
