ICE Arrests NYC Council Employee for Unauthorized Work and Criminal Past

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security announced the arrest of Rafael Andres Rubio Bohorquez, a Venezuelan national with no work authorization who was employed by the New York City Council. He entered the U.S. on a B2 visa in 2017 and has a prior assault arrest. DHS officials framed the case in the context of sanctuary city policies and broader immigration enforcement, citing other cases of illegal aliens in government roles in Illinois and Des Moines.

States sue over Trump immigration crackdown, alleging constitutional overreach and civil-rights harms

Minnesota and Illinois filed separate lawsuits against the Trump administration's immigration crackdown, arguing the federal operations terrorize communities, strain local police resources, and violate the Constitution. The suits accuse DHS, ICE, CBP and Border Patrol of militarized tactics in public spaces and racial profiling against Somali and Hispanic residents, seeking an injunction to halt the operations and calling the actions political retaliation against sanctuary jurisdictions. The states note ongoing funding withdrawals tied to immigration policy noncompliance and warn the crackdown will persist for years, with thousands of federal agents deployed to the Twin Cities and Chicago, effectively turning parts of their cities into war zones.

Controversy and Confusion Surround US Sanctuary Jurisdictions List

The Trump administration released a list of over 500 U.S. communities, including Milwaukee, Madison, Dane, and Shawano counties in Wisconsin, labeled as 'sanctuary jurisdictions' for allegedly not fully cooperating with federal immigration enforcement, though some included areas may have been listed erroneously or without clear policies. The list is based on factors like self-identification as a sanctuary and cooperation levels with ICE, but critics question its accuracy and methodology.
