Two schools in the Portland Public School District implemented emergency security measures last week to supposedly protect staff and students from raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. However, it was later revealed that no ICE operations were planned for the area.

Cesar Chavez School and George Middle School in Portland, Oregon, initiated a “secure the perimeter” protocol last week due to supposed reports of ICE activity in North Portland, KATU 2, an ABC affiliate in Portland, reported. The enhanced measures included locking exterior doors to prevent entrance into the schools while “maintaining normal teaching activities.”
