NEWS FROM AROUND TEXAS

INGRAM POLICE AND ICE: A TOWN CHANGED

Ingram, a Hill Country town of about 1,900 people, was rebuilding from a devastating flood when its small police department enrolled in ICE's 287(g) deportation program.

That is according to a ProPublica investigation published by The Texas Tribune.

The police helped deport the equivalent of 10% of the town's population, the investigation found.

More than 29,000 local law enforcement officers nationwide are on the front lines of the Trump administration's deportation campaign, ProPublica reported.

The closure is part of the $888 million I-30 Canyon Project, which runs through 2031.
