Idaho activists track twice-weekly ICE deportation flights from Twin Falls airport
Sep 28, 2026·Location: Twin Falls, ID
Twice a week, an ICE deportation plane lands at the small Twin Falls, Idaho airport, where activist Heather Muth and a small group monitor the flights with a banner reading 'Human Rights, Not Shuffle Flights.' Muth says moving detainees between facilities makes it harder for attorneys and families to locate them, and she has counted more than two dozen shackled detainees being loaded onto a single flight. The story notes Idaho's dairy industry relies heavily on undocumented immigrant labor, and farmers worry increased enforcement could disrupt agriculture.
