What we don’t know about Trump and immigration

The Boston Globe reports:

Across the United States, reports of immigration raids ran rampant this month. Some happened. Some didn’t.

But who got arrested?

Federal immigration officials won’t say, even though some experts say a little-noticed clause in President Trump’s Jan. 25 executive order appeared to make most immigration arrest and court records public for the first time.

“I see no legal barrier to that [information] being disclosed now,” said Mary Ellen Callahan, a lawyer and the former chief privacy officer for the Obama administration’s Department of Homeland Security. “There’s no prohibition about them being public anymore.”

Federal immigration agencies are the only US law enforcement agencies that keep their arrest and court records from the public.

Imagine that.
