Texas Enforcement Surge: McAllen Multiagency Sweep Nets 50+ Arrests, ICE and Border Patrol Lead

U.S. Attorney Nicholas J. Ganjei held a news conference in McAllen, Texas, announcing a new immigration enforcement and border security initiative. Federal and state partners including Border Patrol, the FBI, the U.S. Marshals Service, ICE, the DEA, ATF and the Texas Department of Public Safety joined the announcement. Officials said the months-long operation resulted in more than 50 arrests last week, focusing on people with criminal records and no legal status. The initiative underscores coordinated interagency efforts to prioritize public safety and border security in South Texas.
