It's the Brian Larry Show on WNYC.

Good morning again, everyone.

So as ice raids ramp up in New York City as well as elsewhere,

we'll now turn our attention to how President Trump's

policy of mass deportation is impacting schools so far, schools in particular. Earlier this week,

the administration mandated arrest quotas due to the president's, quote, disappointment with the

results, unquote, of last week's raid, that's

according to the Washington Post. They say each ICE agency field office is now required to make

75 arrests per day, a total of 12 to 1,500 arrests per day around the country. Now, while the Trump

administration has repeated that the first targets for ICE would be those living on U.S. soil illegally with criminal records.

Gothamist reports that immigration raids in New York City have produced, quote, collateral arrests of those not charged with crimes.

And they always said that that would happen.

But under former President Biden, such arrests were illegal. Tom Holman,

Trump's borders are, has said that collateral arrests are to be expected. Additionally,

Trump has rescinded, protected areas enforcement, which means ICE is now allowed to conduct raids

in churches, hospitals, and even schools. And so we're going to talk about

the schools now with Michael Elson Rooney, reporter at the Education News website, Chalkbeat.
