ICE arrests in Minnesota return to pre-surge levels while soaring nationwide
Immigration enforcement arrests in Minnesota have returned to pre-Operation Metro Surge levels, according to federal data from the Deportation Data Project.
Nationwide, federal agents arrested nearly 50,000 immigrants in July, the highest monthly total during the Trump administration.
More than half of July's immigration arrests nationwide occurred in Texas, Florida, California, and Georgia.
Minnesota's immigration arrests fell from the fourth-highest in January to 32nd in July, with monthly arrests dropping from 2,441 in January to fewer than 250 between March and July after the surge ended.
