💨 Abstract

A large-scale immigration operation in Tallahassee, Florida, resulted in over 100 arrests, targeting undocumented workers from several Latin American countries. The operation, involving multiple federal, state, and local agencies, aimed to crack down on illegal employment and protect job opportunities for legal US workers. The contractor for the construction site stated they comply with E-Verify and were not aware of the arrests. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis hailed the effort as a significant enforcement action.
