Beat cops to game wardens, Florida expands ‘army’ of immigration enforcers
Eager to join the Trump administration’s push to deport unauthorized migrants, Florida is now raising what some call an army of immigration enforcers by enlisting beat cops and even game wardens to arrest the unauthorized residents. Having already deployed this expanded, deputized corps to conduct the largest sweep of unauthorized immigrants in the state’s history – a week-long sting operation last month called Operation Tidal Wave – Florida is now serving as a bellwether for the Trump administration’s broader effort to achieve deterrence throughout the United States. The 1990s saw...

Birthright citizenship reaches the Supreme Court. What’s at stake?
The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments this week in a case that is both unusual and potentially seismic in its consequences.
The 14th Amendment says that anyone born in the United States is automatically a citizen of this country – and has been settled law since the 19th century.
