Minneapolis grapples with lingering trauma, economic damage after ICE surge

By Brad Brooks

March 14 (Reuters) - Few federal agents are seen on the streets of Minneapolis these days.

While many of the city's residents still wear red whistles around their necks, used to sound an alert if they spot U.S. immigration agents, there has been little need to raise the alarm lately.

Although parents dutifully patrol the perimeters of school grounds for ICE agents, sightings are rare. The network of observers who follow ICE ‌agents remains active, but on a far smaller scale than before. Now, raids targeting undocumented migrants are mostly occurring in communities outside of the city.

Once scenes of turmoil as immigration agents carried out aggressive sweeps under President Donald ‌Trump's immigration crackdown, the streets of Minneapolis have today settled back into a more familiar rhythm.
