Denver Mayor Mike Johnston is taking proactive steps to prepare his city for potential aggressive immigration enforcement actions. The mayor has engaged in tabletop exercises with his team and unveiled a comprehensive four-point plan to address concerns related to the Trump administration's immigration policies.
Denver has found itself at the forefront of the immigration debate, becoming the largest recipient city of migrants per capita following a controversial move by Texas Gov. Greg Abbott to bus migrants to Democratic-led cities as a challenge to the Biden administration. President Trump's visit to Aurora, Colorado, further heightened tensions by portraying the community as plagued by migrant-related crime.
