Overview
Newark Mayor Ras Baraka condemned an ICE operation that unlawfully detained undocumented immigrants and U.S. citizens, including a military veteran, at a local business. The raid, which occurred at Ocean Seafood Depot, involved agents entering without warrants and arresting three undocumented workers, while questioning U.S. citizens. This action aligns with the Trump administration's expansion of expedited removals and comes as ICE's nationwide arrests surged, with 538 people detained on a single day. Local leaders and advocates are calling for more transparency and denounce tactics that instill fear in immigrant communities, further emphasizing Newark's commitment to civil rights.
