Kansas gave undocumented students the same low tuition as in-state residents — a benefit some U.S. citizens living out of state could not get. Now the federal government says that was illegal, and a court agreement could end it permanently. If you or your child attends a Kansas college as an undocumented student, your tuition bill may be about to change.

A San Diego man admitted in federal court that he helped hold migrants hostage in Tijuana — and collected ransom from their desperate families. Isaac Jimenez is a U.S. citizen, not a cartel member, but prosecutors say he knew exactly what was happening. His case exposes how ordinary people can become part of deadly smuggling networks.

The US and Australia just made it easier to share information about customs crimes — and ICE is one of the agencies in charge. Signed on June 25, 2026, in Brussels, the new agreement lets both governments exchange evidence and assist each other in investigations involving drug trafficking, money laundering, and terrorism. If you travel between the two countries or have unresolved customs issues, this deal could affect you.

A man from Honduras built a shadow payroll empire that moved $89 million in cash — and helped hundreds of workers get paid off the books. For seven years, the scheme ran quietly through shell companies in the construction industry. Now, Mario Flores is heading to federal prison for eight years, and the case is sending a warning across the country.

A Chinese businessman who built connections with some of New York's most powerful politicians now faces federal bribery charges — and the alleged scheme ran straight through the city's emergency shelter program for asylum seekers. Prosecutors say Yan Po Zhu paid more than $120,000 in bribes to get a $6.8 million city contract for his hotel, even after city officials said the hotel was unfit. The case exposes how the migrant crisis became a target for corruption at the highest levels of City Hall.

In a 6-to-3 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court just ended deportation protections for roughly 350,000 Haitians and more than 6,000 Syrians living in the United States. The ruling says courts cannot stop a president from ending Temporary Protected Status — even when people have lived here legally for decades. For hundreds of thousands of families, the clock may now be running out.

For years, asylum seekers walked up to the US border expecting the law to protect them. The Supreme Court just changed that. In a 6-3 decision, the justices gave the Trump administration the power to stop migrants from ever setting foot on US soil — the very step that triggers the legal right to ask for asylum.

In a single day, the US Supreme Court issued two rulings that shook the lives of more than 350,000 immigrants living legally in the United States. Haitians and Syrians with Temporary Protected Status — people who had permission to live and work here — are now at risk of deportation. At the same time, the court gave border officials the power to turn away asylum seekers before they even set foot on US soil.

For nearly a year, a tent jail in the Florida Everglades held thousands of immigrants — many with no criminal record. Last week, Governor Ron DeSantis announced it is closed. But the fight over immigration enforcement is far from over, and if you or someone you know could face an ICE arrest, knowing your rights right now matters.

A 67-year-old Chinese man spent 11 months in ICE detention — transferred between two facilities, unable to speak to anyone in his language, and nearly losing hope of seeing his family again. His country refused to recognize him as a citizen. ICE kept holding him anyway. His story is not unique: arrests of Asian immigrants in New York City have surged to historic levels in 2026, and the legal safety net is stretched to its breaking point.

Elderly immigrant women in New York City have worked 24-hour shifts for years — lifting patients, losing sleep, and suffering permanent injuries. When lawmakers refused to act, these workers turned to the United Nations. Now the UN is calling their working conditions a possible form of forced labor.
