Airline workers resist ICE airport arrests amid Trump crackdown

A surge in immigration enforcement at US airports has put airline workers at odds with federal agents, who are targeting as many as 36 daily arrests, according to the Wall Street Journal. Many detainees have pending visa, asylum, or green card applications, not criminal records. The Trump administration aims for 2,000 daily arrests, prompting ICE and TSA to expand collaboration. Airline employees have refused to assist without warrants, raising safety and legal concerns.
