8:21Now PlayingReports of masked ICE agents sweeping neighborhoods, raiding worksites and making arrests have sparked protests and debates across the country.
"We haven't seen this type of the volume of interactions between ICE officers and individuals. So this to me is different, it's new, and it's concerning because it's scary for people to be approached by masked men and women. And be taken away from their communities and from their loved ones,” Rutgers Law Professor Rose Cuison-Villazor said.
The increased enforcement is part of the Trump administration's mass deportation agenda. The White House has pushed to hit 3,000 arrests per day, up from an earlier goal of 1,000.
PBS News' Deema Zein spoke to Cuison-Villazor more about some of the legal questions surrounding recent ICE enforcement.
