ICE Has Detained More Than 650 Kids in California Under Trump Deportation Crackdown
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detained over 650 children in California during President Donald Trump's second term, with a 90% increase in interior detentions compared to the prior year under the Biden administration. Over 100 detained children were age 5 or under, and detentions occurred in communities rather than at the border, affecting minors who resided and attended school in California.
