Major Immigration Crackdown Launched in New Orleans
The Department of Homeland Security has initiated Operation Catahoula Crunch in New Orleans, targeting criminal illegal aliens released from jail. This immigration enforcement crackdown has raised significant concerns in local communities, particularly among Hispanic and Vietnamese residents. Hundreds of Border Patrol agents are deployed as the city braces for this federal operation, which also extends to Minneapolis. The crackdown has sparked protests and fears among immigrants in the region, leading to discussions among local leaders about policies to protect children amid increasing tensions. As federal agents expand their presence and conduct arrests, the implications for immigrant communities continue to unfold.
