At the advice and direction of several of our advisory board members, the Biddeford Gazette has created a special page for updates and community information regarding ramped up enforcement activities by the U.S. Immigration & Customs Enforcement Agency (ICE) in Biddeford.
According to multiple sources, ICE began an operation known as “Catch of the Day” in Biddeford and several other southern Maine communities in southern Maine beginning on Jan. 20, 2026.
“This news has created considerable community concern and some misinformation,” said Randy Seaver, the Gazette’s editor. “We felt the responsible thing to do was to provide a resource page where residents could find more information about what is happening and how it is impacting our community.”
