"President Donald Trump said he will order that any migrants attempting to cross the southern border be held in what he described as massive tent cities while their immigration case is heard. Meanwhile, immigration authorities are still releasing groups of undocumented families and asylum seekers in Arizona. About 90 undocumented families were expected to be released on Friday, and another 400 people currently being held in Yuma will start to arrive in metro-Phoenix as early as Sunday, said Rev. Magdalena Schwartz, a pastor with Capellania Cristiana Llamados Para Servir. Schwartz has been receiving familiessince early October. “And more churches (are) calling me now, ‘I want to open my church.’ More people calling me say, ‘I want to help,'” she said. Schwartz said stopping the releases is up to the president. But she thinks it's better if the families aren’t in detention. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement said it continues to work with faith groups as it releases families. In October, the agency said the releases were due to volume and the need to follow a court settlement limiting how long kids can be detained.
The Stark Geography of U.S. Immigration Raids
by Tanvi Misra
According to a new report from CityLab, 24 out of 3,200 counties see around half of all of ICE’s community arrests.
While both Democratic and Republican administrations have used ICE raids to enforce immigration laws, the current one has expressed a particular enthusiasm for this traumatizing technique: Community arrests have risen in the first two years of the Trump administration compared to the last years of the Obama administration. But while the news of raids may have a widespread chilling effect on immigrant communities, the majority of ICE’s arrests via this method are concentrated in a few places, according to a new report by Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), a data gathering and research organization at Syracuse University. Between October 2017 and May 2018, community arrests happened in a total of 574 of 3,200 counties. But just 10 saw around 28 percent of ICE community arrests. And half of all the raids were conducted in just 24 counties.
Below are the ten counties with the highest number of community arrests:
The report presents snapshot of where this one part of ICE’s enforcement strategy is being heavily deployed. It’s no surprise, because these are immigrant-rich counties with long-established communities of undocumented residents. After the Trump administration broadened the criteria for who can be deported, ICE agents have targeted “low-hanging fruit”—people without criminal records who are being arrested at routine immigration check-ins or after testifying against a crime in court. The TRAC report shows that ICE heavily relies on local police to do this. Of the 1,528 counties where ICE made arrests, only 38 percent were community arrests. The rest were made when local law enforcement transferred a suspected undocumented person to ICE’s custody

Necesitamos diseñar e implementar estrategias diferenciadas en el Caribe, especialmente en el Caribe Oriental para enfrentarlos y desarrollar resiliencia. Esperamos en el futuro seguir trabajando con aliados como Garden Pool con proyectos cada vez más ricos para una agricultura climáticamente inteligente”, comentó Otero. Entre otras iniciativas, McClung desarrolló un sistema autosuficiente de producción de alimentos en miniatura que utiliza un 98 por ciento menos de agua que los métodos tradicionales, no usa fertilizantes químicos o pesticidas y es de fácil mantenimiento. El sistema está siendo construido en varias partes del mundo, contribuyendo a la seguridad alimentaria de comunidades rurales. Garden Pool, también, tuvo una destacada participación en la recuperación de países del Caribe afectados en el 2017 por eventos climáticos extremos. Por su parte McClung manifestó sentirse honrado por el reconocimiento del IICA como Embajador de Buena Voluntad. “Estamos haciendo cosas maravillosas con el IICA.

Thanks to the AZ Data Guru we can see the distribution patterns for percentage of early ballot returns that have been sent in - at least in one city here in Maricopa County Phoenix.
At 210k, more people have voted in a #PhxMayor race than ever before.
Your MesaZona blogger would love to get his hands-on an infographic like the one inserted below from Kate Gallego on AZ Data Guru's
Today's ballots bring us to approximately 56% of all ballots that we should expect to see.
More factoids:
> 10% (133k) early ballots returned so far have never voted in a General Election in #AZ. > The largest age category is 18-34 in this subset (36k). 14k of which were Ds, 9.8k Rs, and 11.2k OTH.
