Produced in collaboration with Unseen, this brief examines how immigration detention practices under President Trump’s second administration have reshaped the experiences of Latino immigrants. The analysis finds that detentions increasingly targeted noncriminal, law-abiding Latinos, with sharp increases in detention length, transfers between facilities, and out-of-state confinement. The findings raise serious concerns about due process, family separation, and the broader social and economic impacts of expanded detention policies.
