ICE may enter homes without warrants under new guidance, sparking constitutional concerns.

According to a recently disclosed internal ICE memo, agents may enter private homes without a judge's warrant in certain circumstances, such as reasonable suspicion of removable status, operational safety, or evidence preservation. The guidance, which contradicts longstanding Fourth Amendment protections that require warrants for home entries, has raised concerns among civil rights advocates and legal experts about potential abuses and erosion of constitutional rights. Though the Department of Homeland Security has not confirmed the memo's authenticity, reports suggest it is being used to train new officers and may result in legal challenges. The policy shift reflects a broader enforcement expansion, which raises concerns about privacy, due process, and community trust.
