In a city council meeting Tuesday, Mayor John Whitmire addressed immigration enforcement and how it's being handled at a local level.

ICE arrests and other deportation enforcement are ramping up as President Donald Trump's orders rapidly shift the immigration law landscape. Here's how those process work.

Federal immigration agents can now make arrests at campuses nationwide. How often they will do it at Houston schools remains unknown.

A person who didn't want to be identified said ICE agents have also been seen outside Sheldon ISD's C.E. King High School in northeast Houston. "Ayer estaban like three people de ICE enftrene del high school y estuvieron ahí como por dos horas. Yo vine al negocio, y yo vi unas personas que venían aquí," the person said.

Whitmire said the Houston Police Department is focused on enforcing state laws. He also said “politicizing” federal deportation efforts “is the worst thing you can do.”

ICE agents began targeted operations across Texas on Sunday, following President Donald Trump's campaign promise to crack down on people who may be in the country without legal status.

Officials with U.S. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement did not immediately provide a list of those targeted in the operation.

ICE has take a spotlight role in the wake of plans in Trump's administration for mass deportations. Here's what you need to know about the agency.

FIEL Houston said they have fielded more than 150 calls from concerned citizens reporting who they thought were ICE agents in their neighborhoods.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement are carrying out operations across the state, and that does include in Houston, and also in Galveston.

As Texas continues to be at the forefront of immigration enforcement, understanding your rights is essential during encounters with law enforcement or Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Trump ended use of a border app to allow migrants to enter the country on two-year permits with eligibility to work, canceling tens of thousands of appointments into early February for people stranded in Mexico. Nearly 1 million people entered the U.S. at land crossings with Mexico by using the CBP One app.
