- Over 60 Democratic lawmakers sent a letter Sunday to Trump administration officials regarding the conversion of military installments into effective "traps" for noncitizen service members and their families.
- Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Rich [text cut off] are leading the congressional effort, with the letter targeting immigration enforcement actions at military housing facilities.
Why it matters: The letter from 60+ Democrats signals congressional scrutiny of how immigration enforcement intersects with active-duty military families, potentially complicating enlistment and retention of noncitizen service members who rely on base housing. Led by Sen. Warren, the inquiry puts the Trump administration on notice that its deportation policies on military installations face formal oversight.
