Miami immigration advocates, students, and community members urged city commissioners to terminate the city’s 287(g) agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), arguing it fosters fear among immigrants and undermines police-community trust.

Defending Education, a watchdog group, warns that May Day student protests are the start of a long-term push to normalize political activism in schools, led by teachers' unions and allies like the Sunrise Movement. The report claims over $1 billion has been funneled to liberal causes since 2015, with groups like the National Education Association (NEA) funding Midwest Academy, a progressive organizer training organization. May Day materials call for disrupting 'billionaire takeover' and abolishing ICE, but critics argue this harms low-income families.
