ICE maintains record pace and arrests approximately 50,000 immigrants in August in the US

The United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested approximately 50,000 immigrants during the month of August, maintaining the record detention pace that had already been recorded in June and July. Preliminary data from the Department of Homeland Security confirms that American immigration policy continues advancing at an accelerated pace, with current operations happening in a less visible manner, but with intense enforcement across various regions of the country. The increase in detentions occurs in parallel with the expansion of government infrastructure, with new resources allocated to ICE and Border Patrol, including investments in detention centers and equipment. The numbers represent a new alert for millions of immigrants with pending or irregular immigration situations, demonstrating that immigration remains one of the main priorities of the current administration.

Volta system is having problems: Government admits flaws and says there needs to be oversight
