Mayor Jacob Frey: Why Is ICE in Minn. Where We Don’t Even Have that Many Undocumented Immigrants?

‘Why would it not take place in Texas or Florida or Utah?’

EXCERPT:

FREY: “We are willing to work with people when it's about murder and when it's about crime, but the truth is that this ain't about that. If this were about that, we'd have many important areas where there would be areas where we could work together. This, however, is the largest immigration enforcement action on record in the United States. And so I would just ask you, why is the largest scale immigration enforcement action taking place where we don't even have that many undocumented immigrants? Why would it not take place in Texas or Florida or Utah, where you do actually have those large numbers of undocumented immigrants? Because that's where it would actually make more sense.”
