Las Cruces, N.M. Mayor Pro Tem and Councilwoman Johana Bencomo claimed without evidence Monday that ICE agents are violently “snatching” U.S. citizens from their homes and workplaces.
Her remarks were made in the context of growing protests against Trump’s immigration policies, with demonstrators taking to the streets to voice their opposition.
As tensions rise, the city of Las Cruces finds itself at the center of a national conversation about immigration and civil rights. Bencomo’s remarks have prompted calls for transparency and accountability from ICE, with some advocating for legislative measures to protect immigrant communities.
The situation in Las Cruces reflects a broader pattern of resistance to Trump’s immigration policies, with similar protests and discussions occurring in cities across the United States.
