How the latest ICE deportation campaign led to the fatal shootings of two immigrants.
They've been arresting double the number of immigrants that they were doing just a few months ago,
and as part of that, they've been doing a lot more vehicle stops.
New York's novel approach to data centers and a major lawsuit against the Paramount merger.
It's Wednesday, July 15th. I'm Gideon Resnick in for Shimita Basu.
This is Apple News Today.
After the second fatal shooting by immigration agents within a week,
the Department of Homeland Security has announced a significant policy shift.
Temporarily, ICE officers will be halting most vehicle stops.
That has been their go-to tactic now for many months
as part of this ongoing mass deportation campaign.
Nick Miroff is a staff writer with The Atlantic, who spoke to me about the significance of the announcement.
It came after Maine's Republican Senator Susan Collins said
that she urged DHS Secretary Mark Wayne Mullin to pursue a change.
Miroff said that the traffic stops have increased in part
because targeted immigrants are often not opening the doors of their homes,
knowing that in those cases, officers can't enter without a search warrant from a judge.
And so officers have increasingly looked to try to get the people they're after
by waiting for them to come out, get in their cars, go to work, that kind of thing.
