Deportation Data Centers
In this report, S.T.O.P. details how Department Of Homeland Security-backed fusion centers drive deportation by enabling ICE to coopt local police data. Fusion centers’ sweeping, nationwide network combines state and regional data sharing centers to promote law enforcement collaboration, including ICE. Deportation Data Centers comes shortly after Donald Trump’s reelection brings renewed attention to the scale of American immigration enforcement.
