4 - 20: Immigration Crackdown: A Year of Enforcement

CNN Anchor and Correspondent Omar Jimenez traces the dramatic escalation of enforcement tactics by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement since Donald Trump took office. Traveling from Los Angeles to Chicago, to Minneapolis, and ultimately to the border between Guatemala and Mexico, Jimenez examines how federal immigration policies are unfolding on the ground and reshaping communities across the United States, even affecting migration patterns.In "Immigration Crackdown: A Year of Enforcement," Jimenez speaks with people who say they have suffered directly at the hands of ICE, and families now living in fear of leaving their homes even for groceries. In Chicago, the episode reveals extensive body-camera footage from police and federal agents that captures an unfiltered look at ICE tactics during on-the-ground operations. In Minneapolis, Jimenez traces the economic impact on Latino businesses where both customers and workers have stopped showing up."I've been reporting in many of these communities for months now and the fear is unmistakeable, but there's also a lot of anger at the tactics employed by the federal government," Jimenez said. "These are the human stories behind the policy decisions in Washington DC and I really wanted to show the wide-ranging implications of those policies both here in the United States and beyond."
