ProPublica reports that the federal government does not track how often immigration officers detain U.S. citizens, so the newsroom conducted its own investigation. It documented more than 500 Americans held against their will by immigration authorities during the Trump administration, raising concerns about accountability and safeguards against wrongful detention.
Why now: The finding of hundreds of wrongful detentions of citizens, with no official tracking, is sparking debate over immigration enforcement under the Trump administration.
