Recent immigration enforcement actions in Nashville have led to over 100 arrests, igniting public outcry and heightened tensions within immigrant communities. Local authorities, including the Nashville mayor and Davidson County lawmakers, have expressed concern over the impact of these operations, describing them as creating fear among families and damaging local businesses. Protests have emerged in response to traffic stops conducted by ICE and the Tennessee Highway Patrol, with community members claiming racial profiling and demanding accountability. ICE officials, however, maintain that their actions target violent offenders. The Metro Council is pressing ICE for answers, amid calls for transparency and greater oversight of the ongoing operations.
