About this listen

"One Big Beautiful Bill" signed by President Trump back in July 2025.
This bill was touted as a sweeping reform of our immigration system, funneling a substantial amount of funding into the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, or ICE for short. You might be asking what this means on the ground. Well, part of the plan involved hiring 10,000 new officers and ramping up detention facilities to accommodate up to 100,000 individuals. This sure sounds like a hefty agenda.
One of the most striking proposals to emerge from this policy overhaul comes from Tom Homan, the appointed "border czar". Homan, a key figure in the administration, pushed for raising the daily arrest quotas for ICE agents from around 3,000 to a staggering 7,000. That’s an increase of about 133%—a shift that could potentially lead to over 1.2 million arrests in just one year! It’s no wonder this idea has sparked heated debates across the country.
On one side of the argument, supporters believe that these increased quotas are essential.
