ICE/HSI RAID IN UPSTATE NEW YORK: 57 DETAINED, 5 CHARGED WITH ILLEGAL REENTRY

ICE/HSI detained 57 workers in a Sept. 4 worksite raid in Cayuga County, NY; five face federal charges for illegal reentry while 52 are held for immigration proceedings. The U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of New York warned employers of potential criminal probes for hiring unauthorized workers. This action aligns with an early‑September surge in federal worksite enforcement, including Chicago’s named “Operation Midway Blitz.”
