Immigration and enforcement

What local boards do when federal immigration enforcement reaches their residents.

Who took it up, and when

Each government's first appearance in the window, in order. The bar is where in the window it landed, so a subject that swept the region in one season and one that trickled across two years read differently at a glance.

Which words did the matching

A subject carried entirely by one phrase is a different finding from one carried by six. These are the words the documents themselves used.

• immigration ×20
• immigrant ×9
• refugee ×5
• ice activity ×4
• refugees ×3
• ice guideline ×1
• migrants ×1
• undocumented ×1

Governments with nothing on this

No item or write-up in this window mentions the subject in Chatham County, Chatham County Schools, City of Raleigh, City of Sanford, Town of Fuquay-Varina, Town of Garner, Town of Hillsborough, Town of Holly Springs, Town of Knightdale, Town of Morrisville, Town of Wake Forest, Wake County, and Wake County Public School System. That is not proof nothing happened there. Two school boards and several towns publish agendas no program can read, and a subject can be discussed at length without a word of it reaching a printed agenda.

What was on the agenda

Public comment is only known where a meeting's captions have been read, which is a small share of them. "Not read" means unknown, not zero.
