thanks for the link!

Trump officials say the differing tactics are simply a downstream effect of sanctuary policies in many Democratic-controlled states and large cities, which can limit prisons and jails from cooperating with ICE. In many of those states, local authorities can’t hold immigrants in custody based on ICE orders alone – so they’re often released before immigration officials can arrest them.

...

But advocates for immigrant rights say the community arrests – from raids at factories and restaurants to surprise detentions at ICE check-ins – are punitive measures aimed at instilling fear in blue states and cities.

thought this was interesting

The divide is especially dramatic in Massachusetts, where 94% of immigrants arrested by ICE were apprehended in the community, and 78% of them had no criminal record.

with so many from blue states having no criminal record, the Trump administration's claim that allowing law enforcement to cooperate with ICE would solve this seems like a straight forward lie - it would only apply to a minority of people being detained in workplaces in blue states...
