    What ICE Really Costs Us with Oliver Ma, Legal Fellow, ACLU SoCal

    In this episode of Flor Unmuted, immigration attorney Oliver Ma joins Flor to break down the hidden costs of immigrant detention and how ICE continues to drain local communities like Kern County of already scarce public resources. From taxpayer funding of private detention centers to the role of internalized racism in sustaining immigrant criminalization, this conversation goes beyond headlines and into the systems that quietly shape fear and compliance. Flor and Oliver also dig into the CA-22 Congressional race, what’s at stake in 2024, and how federal immigration enforcement continues to impact the Central Valley. This episode is for first- and second-generation Americans, immigrant families, and anyone questioning where our money—and our silence—is really going.
