En Connecticut hay 169 municipios, pero solo en la mitad habrá elecciones competitivas para alcalde (o similar) este año.

En 22 hay administradores — no electos.

En 18 no se renueva ahora el cargo sino en 2027.

En 45 de las 129 donde sí se vota, solo se presenta un candidato.

ICE detuvo en un operativo “tipo SWAT” a un inmigrante polaco sin antecedentes penales pero con una visa expirada en Connecticut.

Esto contradice la idea de que detienen sólo a criminarles peligrosos.

Un agente de ICE confirmó que detienen a personas en proceso de regularizar sus papeles.

Bueno, y esto publicamos sobre el presupuesto:

Lamont relaja las reglas fiscales para aumentar el gasto y anuncia un fondo para bajar el costo que pagan las familias en preescolar

Fui a cubrir la presentación del presupuesto de Connecticut y me encontré esta marcha contra Trump.

Mucho contra Musk, ICE y las políticas antiLGBT.

Primera protesta de este tipo que veo desde que asumió. Fue en todo el país.

Pocas detenciones de inmigrantes confirmadas en Connecticut tras una semana de rumores.

Las autoridades locales son notificadas por ICE antes de visitar una ciudad pero no reciben información posterior.

Esto alimenta el temor entre los latinos y la impresión de que ICE estuvo por todo el estado.

As Rumors Fly, Little Evidence So Far of Expanded ICE Operations in Connecticut WINDHAM — A video posted this week to social media showing four federal agents detaining an immigrant on Valley Street in Willimantic, is one of the few recorded and verified […]

Few immigrant detentions were confirmed in Connecticut after a week of widespread rumors. Local authorities are notified by ICE before they visit a town but receive no further information. This fuels fake news and fear among immigrants. Local police operations were mistaken for deportation raids.
