ICE agents are reportedly showing up at Bradley International Airport, sparking concern in Connecticut as officials warn travelers could be targeted during routine TSA screenings. Governor Lamont and Public Safety Commissioner Ronnell Higgins confirmed awareness but stressed they’re not involved in immigration enforcement — and urged federal agents to “leave us alone.” While ICE notified the state of their presence, no details were given about future operations. Connecticut’s laws already restrict local law enforcement’s cooperation with ICE, adding to the tension. The Connecticut Airport Authority says they’ve only learned of these “targeted operations” after they happen, and can’t stop them since they occur in federal territory — a move they say undermines their mission to keep travelers safe and moving smoothly. Meanwhile, national data shows many in immigration detention haven’t even been convicted of crimes. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
