Kerger, respectively. “In particular, it is possible that NPR and PBS member stations are broadcasting underwriting announcements that cross the line into prohibited commercial advertisements.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FCC does not directly regulate the two networks. Instead, it evaluates the actions of roughly 1,500 public broadcasting stations across the country, which hold licenses granted by the FCC for use of public airwaves for radio and television, even in the digital age.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Public broadcasting stations are prohibited from running commercials. Instead, they present what are considered corporate underwriting spots, which are supposed to stop shy of a “call to action” telling listeners and viewers to buy a product or service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both CEOs rejected the claim that the public broadcasters had violated federal laws or practices that stretch back decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“PBS is proud of the noncommercial educational programming we provide to all Americans through our member stations,” Kerger said in a statement shared with NPR. “We work diligently to comply with the FCC’s underwriting regulations and welcome the opportunity to demonstrate that to the Commission.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2025/01/30/g-s1-45619/statement-from-npr-president-and-ceo-katherine-maher\">In a statement posted publicly\u003c/a>, Maher said NPR’s corporate sponsorship credits and programs complied with federal regulations and FCC guidelines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are confident any review of our programming and underwriting practices will confirm NPR’s adherence to these rules,” Maher stated. “We have worked for decades with the FCC in support of noncommercial educational broadcasters who provide essential information, educational programming, and emergency alerts to local communities across the United States.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Reviving debate about public funding\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Carr noted in his letter that he was sharing it with lawmakers on Capitol Hill because he thought it could inform their debate over whether to cut off all taxpayer subsidies of NPR and PBS programming.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For my own part, I do not see a reason why Congress should continue sending taxpayer dollars to NPR and PBS given the changes in the media marketplace,” Carr wrote. He argued that any sign that taxpayer dollars are supporting a broadcaster running what are effectively commercials further undermines the case to send federal dollars to public broadcasters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, FCC Commissioner Geoffrey Starks, a Democratic appointee, said Carr’s announcement was a source of “serious concern.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Public television and radio stations play a significant role in our media ecosystem,” Starks said. “Any attempt to intimidate these local media outlets is a threat to the free flow of information and the marketplace of ideas.”[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_12024591,news_12023091,news_12022866\"]Carr’s letter fits into Trump’s calls for the end of public funding for NPR and for PBS and into the president’s broader rhetorical onslaught against media outlets.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s no reason to believe there are significant or widespread violations of Section 399b of the Communications Act, as referred to in the letter, or of FCC guidelines adopted under that law,” says Andrew Jay Schwartzman, a public interest media lawyer who has represented consumer groups before the agency. “It leads me to conclude it’s much more of a scare tactic than the identification of a genuine problem.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The FCC chair under former President Joe Biden, Jessica Rosenworcel, cited free speech principles in dismissing complaints earlier this month against local stations owned by three TV networks: CBS, NBC and Fox. Last week, Carr reinstated the complaints filed by a Trump-affiliated group against CBS and NBC for their treatment of the presidential campaign. He left untouched the dismissal of the one focusing on a Fox station owned by conservative media magnate Rupert Murdoch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Underwriting has been an increasingly important part of public broadcasting finances in recent decades as federal and state governments have pulled back from such funding. On average, NPR receives about 1% of its funding directly from the federal government each year, according to publicly available materials. PBS receives 16%, according to a network spokesperson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On average, NPR’s member stations get 10% of their funds from the U.S.-chartered Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Rural stations are generally among the most dependent on such federal largesse. As a result, public broadcasting has often enjoyed bipartisan support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has used the conservative Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 as an informal blueprint for his second administration, nominating one of its co-authors as his budget chief. The section on public broadcasting called for the elimination of all federal funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The next conservative President must finally get this done and do it despite opposition from congressional members of his own party if necessary,” \u003ca href=\"https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-08.pdf\">Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow at Heritage, wrote in the report (PDF)\u003c/a>, “To stop public funding is good policy and good politics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his first term, Trump \u003ca href=\"https://firstamendmentwatch.org/deep-dive/the-chilling-effect-of-public-broadcasting-funding-cuts/\">repeatedly sought to eliminate federal funds for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting without success\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s an internal inconsistency with complaining about underwriting paying for public broadcasting and simultaneously objecting to public funding,” Schwartzman adds. “There’s an illogic to those two positions unless you don’t really want the nation’s audiences served by public broadcasting at all.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Disclosure: This story was reported and written by NPR Media Correspondent David Folkenflik and edited by Deputy Business Editor Emily Kopp and Managing Editor Vickie Walton-James.

Last week, Carr reinstated the complaints filed by a Trump-affiliated group against CBS and NBC for their treatment of the presidential campaign. He left untouched the dismissal of the one focusing on a Fox station owned by conservative media magnate Rupert Murdoch.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Underwriting has been an increasingly important part of public broadcasting finances in recent decades as federal and state governments have pulled back from such funding. On average, NPR receives about 1% of its funding directly from the federal government each year, according to publicly available materials. PBS receives 16%, according to a network spokesperson.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On average, NPR’s member stations get 10% of their funds from the U.S.-chartered Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Rural stations are generally among the most dependent on such federal largesse. As a result, public broadcasting has often enjoyed bipartisan support.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump has used the conservative Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 as an informal blueprint for his second administration, nominating one of its co-authors as his budget chief. The section on public broadcasting called for the elimination of all federal funding.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The next conservative President must finally get this done and do it despite opposition from congressional members of his own party if necessary,” \u003ca href=\"https://static.project2025.org/2025_MandateForLeadership_CHAPTER-08.pdf\">Mike Gonzalez, a senior fellow at Heritage, wrote in the report (PDF)\u003c/a>, “To stop public funding is good policy and good politics.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his first term, Trump \u003ca href=\"https://firstamendmentwatch.org/deep-dive/the-chilling-effect-of-public-broadcasting-funding-cuts/\">repeatedly sought to eliminate federal funds for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting without success\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s an internal inconsistency with complaining about underwriting paying for public broadcasting and simultaneously objecting to public funding,” Schwartzman adds. “There’s an illogic to those two positions unless you don’t really want the nation’s audiences served by public broadcasting at all.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Disclosure: This story was reported and written by NPR Media Correspondent David Folkenflik and edited by Deputy Business Editor Emily Kopp and Managing Editor Vickie Walton-James.

But photos of the vans used by the sheriff’s office began spreading on social media, accompanied by messages claiming that ICE was present and detaining people in East San José, where thousands of immigrant families live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People in the community were reaching out to me to ask me if this was true,” said Huy Tran, executive director of Services, Immigrant Rights and Education Network (SIREN), an organization with offices in San José and Fresno that offers legal aid, trainings and leadership development to immigrant communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Throughout California, there are networks of dedicated volunteers and attorneys who are responding to possible ICE activity around the clock — called \u003ca href=\"https://podersf.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/Northern-California-Rapid-Response-Network.pdf\">Rapid Response Networks\u003c/a>. SIREN, for example, forms part of Santa Clara County Rapid Response Network, which, on Jan. 26, responded to reports from neighbors about ICE sightings in East San José.

What have ICE arrests looked like in Trump’s first days, and what is the focus?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>During his 2024 campaign, Trump promised his administration would launch “\u003ca href=\"https://www.opb.org/article/2024/11/15/trump-mass-deportation-immigration-border/\">the largest deportation program of criminals in the history of America.\u003c/a>” He even \u003ca href=\"https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/11/18/congress/donald-trump-military-deportation-plan-00190168\">promised to deploy the military for deportations\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In his first week back as president, Trump signed both an executive order declaring “\u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/declaring-a-national-emergency-at-the-southern-border-of-the-united-states/\">an invasion” at the southern border\u003c/a> and ended a \u003ca href=\"https://www.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/publications/21_1027_opa_guidelines-enforcement-actions-in-near-protected-areas.pdf\">2011 Homeland Security policy\u003c/a> that restricted immigration officers from \u003ca href=\"https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/migrants-can-now-be-arrested-at-churches-and-schools-after-trump-administration-throws-out-policies\">detaining people at “sensitive locations” like schools, churches and hospitals\u003c/a>. ICE detentions have also \u003ca href=\"https://blockclubchicago.org/2025/01/27/ice-arrests-dozens-in-chicago-as-part-of-targeted-operation-with-dr-phil-broadcasting-live/\">intensified in Chicago\u003c/a> since the inauguration, where officials said they have launched “enhanced targeted operations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But while Trump still said his administration would go ahead with mass deportations, officials appointed by him are being more careful with their words — laying emphasis, for now, on people with criminal convictions. “If you’re in the country illegally, ICE can visit you,” said Tom Homan, who Trump designated as “border czar.” “But right now … we’re concentrating on the worst first,” he clarified during an interview with Fox News on Wednesday. “The public safety threats.”\u003cbr>\n[ad fullwidth]\u003cbr>\nIn the same interview, Homan said that ICE had arrested 308 undocumented individuals with criminal convictions the previous day alone. For context, that’s still way below \u003ca href=\"https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/obama-record-deportations-deporter-chief-or-not\">the average daily number of arrests and deportations during the Obama administration\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As for Trump’s promise of using the military for deportations, the only evidence of the administration doing this is \u003ca href=\"https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/us-military-aircraft-deport-migrants-pentagon-readies-more-troops-border-2025-01-24/\">using military aircraft to fly migrants detained by ICE to their countries of origin\u003c/a>. Additional troops have \u003ca href=\"https://www.kpbs.org/news/border-immigration/2025/01/24/camp-pendleton-troops-arrive-at-us-mexico-border\">arrived in San Diego\u003c/a>, but the Pentagon said \u003ca href=\"https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-troops-us-mexico-border/\">these troops will not be involved in law enforcement\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003ca id=\"ice-raids-on-social-media\">\u003c/a>Q. What should I do if I see an online post about ICE in the community?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>The major takeaway: If you think you see ICE in your neighborhood or see ICE reported nearby on social media, \u003cstrong>advocates advise that you call them \u003cem>instead \u003c/em>of circulating anything online.\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tran of SIREN explained further: Before posting anything, you should first reach out to your local Rapid Response Network — a coalition of volunteers, organizations and attorneys that work together to confirm ICE sightings and connect people who have been detained by ICE to legal representation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/BarrioDrive/status/1882505353289769141\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ccijustice.org/find-your-local-rr-hotline\">Find the Rapid Response Network that serves your community.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s possible that the Rapid Response Network in your city has already checked out the reported ICE sighting you’re seeing on your feed — so by calling them, you can get information from folks who are at the scene. You could also be \u003ca href=\"https://library.witness.org/product/verify-ice-raids/\">alerting them to an ICE sighting\u003c/a> that isn’t already on their radar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco community organization \u003ca href=\"https://www.missionaction.org/\">Mission Action\u003c/a> urged people to avoid sharing unverified information, with Executive Director Laura Valdez saying that such rumors “can unnecessarily heighten fear and confusion” and that communities should trust Rapid Response Networks to “verify reports and share clear, actionable updates.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The organization said that anyone directly witnessing ICE activity can contact the 24-hour San Francisco hotline at 415-200-1548.

How can I recognize an ICE agent in real life or in a video?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>ICE agents can sometimes wear uniforms or gear that \u003cem>suggests \u003c/em>they are police officers or probation officers, according to \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclusocal.org/en/icenotwelcome\">the American Civil Liberties Union Southern California\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This can sometimes convince people to let \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2017/02/21/516488396/without-warrants-immigration-agents-often-pose-as-police-officers\">agents enter a home without a warrant\u003c/a>. In 2018, several San Francisco police commissioners \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11642905/s-f-police-commissioners-want-ice-agents-to-stop-impersonating-police\">called on ICE\u003c/a> to stop \u003ca href=\"https://www.immigrantdefenseproject.org/raids-foia/\">these practices\u003c/a>, saying it interfered with local policing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE agents can also wear civilian clothes or plain dark clothing with a bulletproof vest.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police officers, however, usually wear a more specific-looking uniform “\u003ca href=\"https://www.aclusocal.org/en/icenotwelcome\">with identifying insignias,\u003c/a>” ACLU SoCal said.[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_12019638,news_12024082,forum_2010101908578\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Q. What is the difference between ICE and CBP?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, and Customs and Border Protection, CBP, are both immigration enforcement agencies within the Department of Homeland Security. \u003ca href=\"https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/LSB/LSB10362\">ICE conducts enforcement within the U.S.\u003c/a> and manages detention and deportation operations. CBP conducts inspections at all U.S. “ports of entry” – at land borders, seaports, and airports. And the Border Patrol, which is part of CBP, polices the land borders in between the official ports of entry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE and CBP officers generally need an administrative warrant (signed by an ICE or CBP supervisor) in order to arrest a person. However they can make an arrest without a warrant if they see a person illegally entering the country, or they have “reason to believe” a person is here illegally and likely to escape before they can get a warrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You have more protections if the encounter happens when you are in your home. Under the Fourth Amendment, if ICE or CBP agents (or any law enforcement officer) comes to your door and wants to enter your home, they either need to present a warrant signed by a judge (not just an administrative warrant from their agency) – or they need your consent. \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/2025/01/27/ice-warrants-undocumented-immigrants-raids-arrests\">Agents could also technically enter without permission if they report hearing an emergency\u003c/a> happening inside the home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you don’t want the agent to come in, legal advocates say, you don’t have to open the door unless the agent shows you a judicial warrant. (Advocates suggest asking the agent to slide the warrant under the door or hold it up to a window where you can read it.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similar to ICE, CBP officers \u003ca href=\"https://careers.cbp.gov/s/career-paths/ofo/cbpo\">may have “police” written prominently on their uniform\u003c/a>. “U.S. Customs and Border Protection” may be written on their sleeve or on their back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal law grants additional powers to CBP within \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/border-zone\">a wide border zone\u003c/a> that the government has defined as 100 air miles from an “external boundary” of the U.S. Within that zone – which covers most coastal cities in the country, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11801962/immigration-advocates-call-sending-border-patrol-agents-to-sanctuary-cities-a-scare-tactic\">San Francisco\u003c/a> – \u003ca href=\"https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/LSB/LSB10559\">CBP agents can stop and question people\u003c/a>, and board vessels, buses and trains to search for unauthorized immigrants without a warrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That said, you do still have constitutional protections, including the right to remain silent so you don’t say something that could incriminate you. Immigration officers cannot detain you without “reasonable suspicion” of a crime, and they cannot search you or your belongings without “probable cause” – unless you give your consent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/2025/01/27/ice-warrants-undocumented-immigrants-raids-arrests\">Read more from Axios on how ICE agents apply warrants to entering a home and making arrests\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Hotlines for ICE encounters and sightings:\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003ca href=\"https://immigrants.sf.gov/help/rapid-response\">San Francisco’s 24-hour hotline\u003c/a> to either report ICE sightings or get legal assistance: \u003cstrong>415-200-1548\u003c/strong>.

Last week, a San Francisco middle student’s report that \u003ca href=\"https://www.kron4.com/news/bay-area/student-reports-ice-agent-asked-for-id-on-muni-bus-sfusd/\">they were questioned by an immigration agent on a city Muni bus\u003c/a> prompted \u003ca href=\"https://missionlocal.org/2025/01/sfpd-confirms-no-ice-activity-on-muni-but-sfusd-helped-to-spread-rumor/\">SFUSD officials to send emails to local families warning them about the alleged incident\u003c/a> — even though representatives for both ICE and the San Francisco Sheriff’s Office ultimately denied any involvement in the incident.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it \u003cem>can \u003c/em>be difficult to distinguish fact from rumor while you’re scrolling, especially when the news is concerning.

What is the difference between ICE and CBP?\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, and Customs and Border Protection, CBP, are both immigration enforcement agencies within the Department of Homeland Security. \u003ca href=\"https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/LSB/LSB10362\">ICE conducts enforcement within the U.S.\u003c/a> and manages detention and deportation operations. CBP conducts inspections at all U.S. “ports of entry” – at land borders, seaports, and airports. And the Border Patrol, which is part of CBP, polices the land borders in between the official ports of entry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>ICE and CBP officers generally need an administrative warrant (signed by an ICE or CBP supervisor) in order to arrest a person. However they can make an arrest without a warrant if they see a person illegally entering the country, or they have “reason to believe” a person is here illegally and likely to escape before they can get a warrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You have more protections if the encounter happens when you are in your home. Under the Fourth Amendment, if ICE or CBP agents (or any law enforcement officer) comes to your door and wants to enter your home, they either need to present a warrant signed by a judge (not just an administrative warrant from their agency) – or they need your consent. \u003ca href=\"https://www.axios.com/2025/01/27/ice-warrants-undocumented-immigrants-raids-arrests\">Agents could also technically enter without permission if they report hearing an emergency\u003c/a> happening inside the home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If you don’t want the agent to come in, legal advocates say, you don’t have to open the door unless the agent shows you a judicial warrant. (Advocates suggest asking the agent to slide the warrant under the door or hold it up to a window where you can read it.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Similar to ICE, CBP officers \u003ca href=\"https://careers.cbp.gov/s/career-paths/ofo/cbpo\">may have “police” written prominently on their uniform\u003c/a>. “U.S. Customs and Border Protection” may be written on their sleeve or on their back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Federal law grants additional powers to CBP within \u003ca href=\"https://www.aclu.org/know-your-rights/border-zone\">a wide border zone\u003c/a> that the government has defined as 100 air miles from an “external boundary” of the U.S. Within that zone – which covers most coastal cities in the country, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11801962/immigration-advocates-call-sending-border-patrol-agents-to-sanctuary-cities-a-scare-tactic\">San Francisco\u003c/a> – \u003ca href=\"https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/LSB/LSB10559\">CBP agents can stop and question people\u003c/a>, and board vessels, buses and trains to search for unauthorized immigrants without a warrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That said, you do still have constitutional protections, including the right to remain silent so you don’t say something that could incriminate you.
