We have a close look at Immigration and Customs Enforcement— better known as ICE — and the role it plays in enforcing federal immigration law. As the Trump administration ramps up its crackdown on undocumented immigrants, more communities are coming face to face with ICE agents, and some are pushing back. So, what exactly does ICE do, and how is an ICE agent’s authority different from that of a local police officer? We’re joined by experts who will break down the law, the limits of enforcement, and what it all means for communities across the country.
