- Camila Ramos, 36, was forcibly removed from a Miami-Dade Commission meeting after attempting to speak about a controversial agreement between county jails and ICE.
- Video footage showed deputies manhandling Ramos, causing her to fall to the floor, as she repeatedly shouted, “Let go of me!” amid chants of “let her speak!” from the audience.
- The incident occurred during a discussion of Resolution 11A, which allows county jails to hold Immigration detainees for ICE for up to 48 hours, a measure advocacy groups argue makes it harder to track undocumented family members.
- Ramos allegedly ignored an officer's instruction not to speak after the Commission Chair threatened to ban future public comments on the issue if anyone spoke out.
- The event reflects a broader push by Trump’s mass deportation agenda, including the expansion of the 287(g) program and proposals like a large immigrant detention facility in Florida.
