ICE arrests hit record 43,000 in June as detentions and fatal traffic stops escalate

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recorded 43,000 arrests in June 2023, a record under the Trump administration, with daily rates exceeding 1,593 in early July. Fatal incidents during traffic stops in Texas, Maine, and Florida, along with a controversial policy of mandatory detention, have drawn scrutiny, while the Supreme Court is expected to rule on the policy's legality in October.
