Minnesota attorneys warn ICE is using applications of people seeking status to aid arrests

Immigration attorneys in Minnesota say ICE continues to make frequent arrests, increasingly using appointments and pending immigration applications to locate people without legal status. Lawyers described the approach as quieter than the public patrols associated with Operation Metro Surge and urged clients to plan before attending appointments. On Friday, about a dozen detainees boarded an immigration flight from Minneapolis–St. Paul International Airport, while roughly a dozen others arrived.
