One Year After the Flood, Romulus Says No to ICE, & Police Suspensions Spark Debate

from El Pulso: Weekly News from EL CENTRAL · host EL CENTRAL Hispanic News

This week on EL PULSO, we break down a unanimous vote in Romulus rejecting a proposed 500-bed ICE detention center near Detroit Metro Airport — and why the final decision may still rest with federal authorities. We also examine the suspension of two Detroit police officers after contacting U.S. Border Patrol during a Southwest traffic stop, a move that has reignited debate over trust and immigration policy in our neighborhoods. One year after a massive 54-inch water main break flooded hundreds of Southwest homes, families say they’re still dealing with financial and health impacts. Plus: new CDC data showing rising firearm homicide rates among Latinos, a March 31 property tax foreclosure deadline in Wayne County, and a celebration of Afro-Latin heritage at Wayne State during Black History Month. Here’s what you need to know.
