Nationwide Surge in ICE Courthouse Arrests Sparks Outrage Among Immigrant Rights Advocates

In a controversial move, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has intensified its deportation efforts by making arrests at immigration courthouses across the country. This tactic, perceived as an attempt to instill fear among undocumented immigrants, has been met with significant backlash from immigrant rights advocates. Recent reports indicate that multiple individuals have been detained while attending court hearings in cities such as Sacramento, San Francisco, and Phoenix, with families now facing hefty bonds and expedited removal processes. As ICE agents stake out courthouses and use new strategies to target immigrants, many are forgoing their court appearances out of fear of arrest. Protests and rallies condemning these actions have emerged in response to what is seen as a stark violation of due process rights, further complicating the already fraught landscape of immigration enforcement.
