Thread: ICE IMMIGRATION ENFORCEMENT FACT VS FICTION

Fact vs. Fiction
Fiction: U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is aggressively dismissing cases.

FACT: Media have suggested that ICE is aggressively dismissing cases based on a directive from Director Morton. This just isn’t true. ICE enforcement is alive and well. For two years in a row, ICE has removed a record number of illegal aliens from communities across the United States. The agency focuses limited resources on three high priority areas—the identification and removal of criminals and national security threats, fugitives, and recent border entrants and others who game the system. Last year, ICE removed substantially more criminal aliens than ever before.

On Aug. 20, 2010, Director Morton issued a memorandum that allows for the dismissal of a very narrow category of cases. The memorandum applies only to individuals who are about to receive an immigration benefit—namely lawful permanent residence—from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. This is not backdoor amnesty. By dismissing these cases, ICE attorneys can use limited time before immigration judges to seek removal orders against aliens who are not about to receive a green card and can be removed from the country. Pursuing removal orders for aliens who are about to become lawful permanent residents doesn’t make sense in terms of time or resources.

Fiction: ICE is pro-amnesty.

FACT: ICE does not engage in “backdoorâ€

I think I'll give old ICE a call tomorrow and inform them that there are ohhhh, about 8,000,000 illegal aliens living and eating in California right now, and ask them if they would mind checking into it when they get the time.

Don't they have tomorrow off?

Ditto! They can start by checking out any number of Home Depots across this state. Doesn't matter which one, as any one of them will do.

Then of course, we will be subjected to any number of pro-illegal invader groups coming out and decrying that ICE is engaged in discrimination against those who are in this country illegally by targeting Home Depots!

If Lamar Smith stays on the right track, we'll have greatly increased use of E-Verify and worksite enforcement. Of course we'll also have greatly increased claims of "Ism" when illegals are replaced by Americans.
