ICE Arrests Hit Record Levels; Migrant Children Lose Legal Support; Southwest Freight Project Moves Forward

ICE Arrests Hit Record Levels; Migrant Children Lose Legal Support; Southwest Freight Project Moves Forward

In this week’s edition of EL PULSO, ICE arrests reach record levels nationwide as legal support for unaccompanied immigrant children shrinks. In Michigan, more than 500 children could lose legal representation after federal funding for the Michigan Immigrant Rights Center ended August 1.

We also report on Detroit Recharged, a $112 million freight terminal project in Southwest Detroit that promises cleaner equipment and changes to truck routes while raising concerns among nearby residents about pollution, traffic, and trust.

Plus, Detroit announces nearly $20 million in improvements across 11 neighborhood parks, including projects at Patton Park and Cass Park.

We also highlight Ines de Jesus, a longtime bilingual educator and one of this year’s Skillman Visionary Award recipients, for her decades of work supporting Latino students and bilingual education in Detroit.

And in sports, Detroit City FC earns an important 1-0 road win over FC Tulsa, while the new Regal Eagle Soccer Pub opens on West Vernor with hopes of becoming part of Southwest Detroit’s growing match-day culture.
