All of the main characters from the movie "Buckaroo Banzai" which is AWESOME and does not get enough credit for how genius it is. The picture, however, is missing John Lithgow as Emilio Lizardo, who gave a performance for the ages.

The Impact of Increased ICE Activity on the Child Care Workforce and Mothers’ Employment A new report from the Better Life Lab at New America examines how the recent escalation in immigration enforcement—defined as the number of ICE arrests—has impacted employment among child care workers and mothers with young children. Since President Trump took office in January 2025, the sharp increase in ICE activity has reduced employment among both immigrant and U.S.-born child care workers, while also reducing mothers’ labor force participation. The report estimates there are roughly 39,000 fewer foreign-born child care workers and 77,000 fewer U.S.-born working mothers since January 2025. ICE Activity Ramps Up Between December 2024 and June 2025, ICE arrests rose more than threefold, from 8,320 to 29,147. These arrests increasingly occur in public settings—as opposed to prisons and jails—thereby raising the visibility of recent enforcement efforts. Child care centers are no longer afforded “sensitive location” status, and recent press reports have documented ICE raids occurring near and inside these facilities.
"Reductions in child care and maternal employment intensified after President Trump took office, suggesting that ICE’s impact on the labor market has grown in recent months."
