Baltimore Pride, Van Hollen's power, and an ICE raid on school grounds

from WYPR News Roundup

Sen. Chris Van Hollen is not on the ballot this month, but that's not stopping his political influence. We talk to a reporter in Maryland and another in Washington, D.C., about how he's wielding his power. Then, hours after an ICE detention on school grounds had parents reeling, Bria Overs, with our news partner, the Baltimore Banner, shares her reporting on how ICE has changed the economy and the neighborhood of Highlandtown in Baltimore. We also hear from one of Baltimore's longest-serving principals. Cindy Harcum leaves Baltimore City College this year after 15 years of service. Her former student, Bry Reed, asks what makes "The Castle" so unique. And finally, Pride marches through Baltimore on Saturday, but recent changes to the festival have some members of the LGBTQ+ community asking if the city is on their side.
