ICE arrests in Florida increased dramatically between January 2025 and early 2026, with the Miami Field Office averaging approximately 120 arrests per day by March 2026—the highest rate nationwide. Over 20,600 arrests were made between January 20 and October 15, 2025, compared to approximately 20 arrests per day in 2024. By March 10, 2026, the Miami Field Office had made approximately 9,880 arrests. The arrested individuals came from over 120 countries and ranged in age from 1 to 89, with approximately 25% having no criminal record beyond immigration offenses. The surge reflects alignment with federal enforcement policies and Gov. Ron DeSantis's efforts to require state law enforcement participation in immigration enforcement.
