Snippet:
Officials in Hennepin County, Minnesota, shut down a $2 million relief fund for businesses claiming to be affected by federal immigration enforcement after officials discovered widespread fraud among applicants, forcing them to end the program. The county board created the fund to help businesses "harmed" by Operation Metro Surge, the federal immigration enforcement operation that began in December 2025.
