Trump’s mass deportations are impossible without racial profiling
A recent investigation reveals that ICE's street arrests in New York disproportionately target Latino individuals. Court records indicate that 93 percent of those arrested were Latino, despite them making up a smaller percentage of the undocumented population. The findings raise concerns about racial profiling, as many arrests were made based on appearance rather than actual evidence.
- ▪ICE has ramped up street arrests in New York, with 430 arrests recorded between October 2025 and mid-March.
- ▪93 percent of those arrested were Latino, while they represent only 66 percent of the local undocumented population.
- ▪Many individuals arrested were not the intended targets, with agents detaining them based on their appearance.
