About this listen

Donald Trump has promised to deport a million people in his first year back in office.

As a result, immigration officers are conducting widespread raids across the country – often targeting and locking up American citizens.

The Trump administration says nearly 70 percent of the people Immigration and Customs Enforcement has arrested are criminals. But ICE’s own data shows the overwhelming majority have no criminal conviction at all.

Today, reporter at ProPublica Nicole Foy, on how Trump’s immigration crackdown is changing America – and how ordinary civilians are fighting back.
