A U.S. citizen says ICE detained his Indian wife despite their legal marriage, leaving him regretting his vote for Trump. The situation highlights how much broader the immigration crackdown has become than many voters expected.
Trump officials have repeatedly said enforcement targets dangerous criminals, but federal data shows many ICE arrests involve immigrants without U.S. criminal records. People with criminal convictions have represented a smaller share than many might expect, while deportations have struggled to keep pace with soaring arrests. Even U.S. citizens have reportedly been detained during immigration operations.
The crackdown is sweeping up families, longtime residents and people without criminal convictions, showing that aggressive immigration enforcement does not stop neatly at the category of dangerous criminals.
