Show Notes
Community activists in Washington state are urging Governor Bob Ferguson to intervene after a report revealed federal immigration agents are still accessing driver data, despite state laws aiming to prevent such cooperation. The issue arose when researchers found U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents checking license plates and pulling driver records before arrests, leading to a tenfold increase in state resident arrests by immigration officers since January 2025. The governors office claims theyve cut off U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement access, but advocates are pressing for action against Customs and Border Protection, with no changes yet.
