Immigrant Support Networks Mobilize Amid Rising ICE Enforcement
Immigrant support networks across the U.S. are ramping up efforts in response to increased ICE enforcement under President Trump's administration. Organizations like the Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network (WAISN) have seen a surge in calls to their hotlines, with many immigrants seeking legal advice and reporting sightings of immigration enforcement. The heightened enforcement has led to fear and uncertainty within immigrant communities, prompting nonprofits to provide rapid response services, legal aid, and community support.
