“One Big Beautiful Bill,” or OBBB, that reshaped immigration enforcement in the United States. Today, we’re diving deeper into one of its most controversial aspects: the daily arrest quotas imposed on immigration enforcement, and what that means for individuals and communities across the nation.When the OBBB was signed into law on July 4, 2025, it allocated a staggering $170 billion to enhance border security and immigration enforcement.
