What is currently happening with ICE inside the US?

As of April 4, the agency was holding 60,311 people in 203 facilities around the country (USICS, 2026)

ICE reports its detained population according to three categories: 

  • those with prior criminal convictions 
  • those facing criminal charges
  •  those with no criminal history. 

Thus, now the tension is concentrated in the interior of the U.S. with ICE raids and new detention centers and not so much in the borders; the borders have remained the same since this new administration.
