Alexandria Gomez's group has helped about 170 families by raising more than $300,000.

She says this is another way to fight the federal government's immigration crackdown in their state.

Sergio Martinez Beltran, NPR News, Minneapolis.

You know, it feels like nothing has changed, Steve.

Federal agents continue to make arrests around the state.

Minneapolis continues to see most of these pickups.

In fact, just yesterday, the superintendent of the Columbia Heights School District north of Minneapolis said several of her students were harassed and stopped by ICE officers.

And one of the websites activists use to monitor ICE activity continues to show a high number of hits just all over the map.

NPR asked Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry about this drawdown plan.

And he said in a statement, any drawdown is a good step, but he said the search must end.

There is no timeline and Hohmann did not offer any specifics as to how they would wind down operations here.

Hohmann did say he's working on ways to make immigration enforcement safer, more efficient and bite the book.

But the big headline, Steve, is that all of these plans are dependent on the cooperation of state and local officials.

Homan said that means more access to prisons and jails, which would mean fewer agents on the streets.

Homan also said the administration will prioritize the arrest of migrants with criminal records or who pose a public safety threat.

And it's important to note that the administration has said this all along and yet has arrested a bunch of undocumented immigrants who have not committed crimes.

So it will be important to see whether, in fact, there will be fewer collateral arrests in Minnesota from now on.

Yes, and that's something that Homan acknowledged yesterday in his press conference as well and something that the administration of Governor Tim Walz has maintained all along as well.

Okay, unusual.

What do you hear from people who've been protesting?
