    October 29, 2025

    NPR News reports that some vehicles involved in immigration arrests are operating without license plates or with swapped plates in enforcement hotspots like Illinois, California, and Washington. Witnesses and activists have reported similar behavior, and Illinois’ secretary of state has condemned plate-swapping as illegal. NPR asked ICE to respond to specific photos and videos showing plate removal or manipulation, but the agency did not address the examples.
