【发生了什么】据《公共广播公司》（ProPublica）最近的一项调查，众议院民主党人再次要求特朗普政府解释，为何数百名美国公民被移民特工拘留，以及政府在移民行动中如何核实公民身份。
What Happened: Citing ProPublica’s recent investigation, House Democrats are again asking the Trump administration to explain why hundreds of U.S. citizens have been held by immigration agents and how the government verifies citizenship during immigration operations.
在10月致国土安全部长马克韦恩·穆林（Markwayne Mullin）的信中，加利福尼亚州众议员卢·科雷亚（Lou Correa）及另外39名立法者要求政府公布移民特工拘留的公民人数，以及政府如何追踪此类遭遇。他们还要求提供更多关于特工如何接受核实公民身份和合法身份培训的信息。
In an October letter to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, California Rep. Lou Correa and 39 other legislators demanded the administration share the number of citizens that immigration agents have detained and how the government is tracking such encounters. They also asked for more information about how agents are trained to verify citizenship and legal status.
【为何重要】《公共广播公司》统计到，有超过500名美国人被移民特工拘留——这几乎肯定是低估，因为政府并未透明地追踪这些案件。
Why It Matters: ProPublica counted more than 500 Americans detained by immigration agents — almost certainly an undercount since the government is not transparently tracking the cases.
专家告诉我们，这些案件总体显示联邦特工践踏了公民的宪法权利。我们发现，有超过100名美国人被询问其公民身份，63名美国人在录音时被拘留，36名美国人被拘留至少一天且无法联系律师或家人，大约十几名公民被驱逐出境，其中大多是儿童。
Experts told us the cases collectively show federal agents running roughshod over the constitutional rights of citizens. We found more than 100 Americans who were questioned about their citizenship, 63 Americans detained while recording, 36 Americans held for at least a day without being able to contact a lawyer or their family and roughly a dozen citizens deported, mostly children.
【他们说】“我们仍然担心，该部门的行为正在侵犯美国公民的正当程序、平等保护以及免受不合理搜查和扣押的宪法权利，并要求就该部门的行为提供透明度，”这些代表在致国土安全部的信中写道。
What They Said: “We remain concerned that the Department’s actions are violating American citizens’ constitutional rights to due process, equal protection, and freedom from unreasonable search and seizure, and request transparency regarding the Department’s actions,” the representatives wrote in their letter to DHS.
国土安全部长期以来一直坚称，它并未逮捕美国公民，并为其移民行动辩护，称其为“高度精准”。一名发言人在致《公共广播公司》的信中写道：“这些国会议员对那些违反我们法律并破坏任何留在美国可能性的犯罪非法移民表现出的关切，远比他们对瑞秋·莫林（Rachel Morin）、莱肯·莱利（Laken Riley）、乔斯琳·努加雷（Jocelyn Nungaray）以及美国非法移民犯罪的真正受害者所表现出的关切要多。”
DHS has long insisted it is not arresting U.S. citizens, and it defended its immigration operations as “highly targeted.”“These members of Congress have shown more concern for criminal illegal aliens who’ve broken our laws and destroyed any possibility of ever remaining in our country than they ever have for Rachel Morin, Laken Riley, Jocelyn Nungaray, and the true victims of illegal alien crimes in America,” a spokesperson wrote to ProPublica.
背景：自2025年初以来，民主党一直敦促特朗普第二任政府提供更多细节，说明移民特工如何与美国公民互动。去年，国会民主党人宣布对移民特工拘留美国公民一事展开广泛调查，此举是回应我们此前报道的发现：超过170名公民被移民特工拘留。
Background: Democrats have been pushing the second Trump administration for more details about how immigration agents are interacting with U.S. citizens since early 2025. Last year, congressional Democrats announced a wide-ranging investigation into immigration agents’ detention of U.S. citizens in response to our earlier reporting that found that more than 170 citizens were detained by immigration agents.
上个月，新墨西哥州民主党众议员特蕾莎·莱格尔·费尔南德斯提出一项法案，名为《因被ICE错误拘留的公民伸张正义法案》，旨在让公民更容易就错误逮捕起诉移民特工。
Last month, Rep. Teresa Leger Fernández, a New Mexico Democrat, introduced a bill, Justice for Citizens Wrongfully Detained by ICE Act, that would make it easier for citizens to sue immigration agents for wrongful arrests.
