Executive Summary
New York State is passing legislation to limit local law enforcement's cooperation with ICE, prompting threats of increased federal enforcement in the state.
Federal courts are scrutinizing ICE's arrest procedures, with some judges imposing stricter standards requiring warrants or probable cause findings of escape risk for arrests in public spaces.
The Trump administration is escalating the use of denaturalization, shifting from rare cases like Nazi war criminals to a broader law enforcement tactic targeting naturalized citizens for past application discrepancies.
A significant circuit court split has emerged over mandatory detention without bond for immigrants, centering on the statutory interpretation of "seeking admission," with major due process implications.
