15 Detained By ICE, Including Several Bay Area Children
- Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained at least 15 people, including children as young as three, during court check-ins in San Francisco on Wednesday.
- The detentions occurred after asylum claims were denied and removal orders issued, with advocates suggesting this increase is driven by directives from the Trump administration aimed at fulfilling arrest targets.
- Several detainees, including families with young children, were held overnight at the local ICE office in San Francisco, a facility not intended for long-term detention, where they reportedly lacked access to food and adequate sleeping arrangements.
- San Francisco officials and immigration advocates condemned the arrests as unlawful and traumatic; Nancy Pelosi said the detainees were cooperating with law enforcement and called the actions 'outrageous and unforgivable.'
- The detentions challenge San Francisco's sanctuary policies and may deter immigrants from lawful cooperation with ICE, while ICE's immigration enforcement budget is poised to increase significantly under federal legislation.
