in the news

January brought heightened attention to U.S. immigration enforcement, with increased activity by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Expanded operations at the border and within the nation’s interior underscored how immigration policy continues to shape national and local conversations about the rule of law, public safety, and civil liberties.

As we enter 2026, January invites us to pause, take a breath, and look ahead, and here on the SouthCoast, there is a lot to talk about. Our communities are changing, growing, and asking important questions about who we are and how we move forward together. At the League of Women Voters SouthCoast, we believe democracy lives closest to home, in the everyday conversations we have with neighbors and the choices we make as a community.
