Baltimore, MD - Mar. 12, 2026 - As concerns regarding Immigration and Customs Enforcement are rising across the political spectrum, Mayor Brandon Scott discussed the topic on the “C4 and Bryan Nehman” show.
“For people that have just been living here and working here peacefully for all these years, paying taxes, sending their kids to school, helping with jobs that other folks don’t want to do, why would we be removing these folks?” Scott said.
When asked if he is expecting some type of ICE surge coming to the city, Scott said, “We’re going to be prepared in Baltimore to do whatever we can to not have some of the stuff that we’ve seen around the country.”
Scott also made sure to address crime concerns and the crime reduction over recent years.
“That does not happen without the community,” Scott said. “Our detectives are the best homicide detectives. That does not happen without the community. And also, quite frankly, does not happen with us continuing the reforms and rebuilding relationships that were broken and building relationships that didn’t exist.”
