December 11, 2024 · 12:50 pm ET · Leave a Comment

“The incoming Trump administration intends to rescind a long-standing policy that has prevented Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from arresting immigrants at or near so-called sensitive locations, such as houses of worship, schools and hospitals or events like funerals, weddings and public demonstrations without approval from supervisors,” NBC News reports.

“President-elect Donald Trump plans to rescind the policy as soon as the first day he is in office.”
