Many people who legally work and live in New York fear they could be arrested by ICE.
Immigrant advocates in New York continue to speak out.
Recently, a quarter of a million New York residents reportedly “received removal orders” from immigration courts, “making them eligible for deportation.”
ICE raids have returned to New York State after President Donald Trump pledged to deport “millions and millions” of undocumented immigrants.
Just after being sworn last week, President Trump signed a series of orders declaring a national emergency at the southern border.
Since Trump took office, ICE agents in New York and across the nation have arrested around 3,500 migrants and detained over 3,000.
ICE has been reporting single-day statistics since Trump took office. Over 1,100 were arrested on Monday.
A number of DACA recipients, who legally work and live in New York, spoke out on Monday saying they are scared ICE will detain or arrest them without looking at their statues.
“Please be safe, aware of your surroundings, and carry valid forms of identification with you including your Certificate of Birth, your state-issued driver’s license, or other forms of identification,” Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren stated on Facebook.
