Planned large-scale immigration action in Aurora postponed after publicity

Immigration officials hope to conduct the raids in the future but without so much attention in advance.

A large immigration crackdown planned for Thursday in Aurora was postponed after publicity about the effort spread throughout the community, worrying federal agencies that they had been compromised.

Sources in a position to know the Department of Homeland Security’s plans confirmed to CPR News on Wednesday that an earlier NBC News report was correct: The effort had been postponed — but not canceled.
