ICE Chief Doubles Down On Arresting Undocumented People With No Criminal History

ICE Chief Doubles Down On Arresting Undocumented People With No Criminal History
SHARE

President Donald Trump had initially pledged to focus on the “worst of the worst” in terms of immigrant deportations, but recent developments indicate a departure from that promise. The current acting ICE chief, Todd Lyons, revealed in an interview that ICE is now targeting undocumented immigrants without criminal backgrounds, a shift from the previous focus on individuals with criminal histories or posing national security threats.

Under the current administration, ICE has broadened its scope to apprehend anyone found to be in the country illegally, a stark difference from the policies of the Biden administration. This change has resulted in widespread criticism as ICE agents have arrested individuals ranging from high school students to immigrants attending routine court hearings.

Data from CBS shows that out of the approximately 100,000 deportations documented between January and June, only about 70,000 involved individuals with criminal convictions. Furthermore, only a small fraction of those convictions were for violent offenses. Despite claims of prioritizing the deportation of the “worst of the worst,” the reality seems to contradict these assertions.

ICE has also increased noncriminal arrests, with individuals without charges or convictions accounting for nearly half of daily ICE arrests. Lyons emphasized that the agency remains focused on deporting those considered the most severe offenders, although critics question the effectiveness of these tactics.

Additionally, ICE will continue workplace raids and penalize companies hiring undocumented immigrants. Lyons highlighted the agency’s commitment to targeting American companies exploiting immigrant laborers. The recent funding increase from the Republicans’ tax bill will further support ICE’s enforcement efforts.

Despite concerns about racial profiling and the impact on immigrant communities, ICE will persist with workplace raids. Lyons defended the use of masks by ICE agents during enforcement actions, citing privacy and safety concerns.

As the president reportedly aims for a million deportations by the year’s end, ICE’s controversial tactics continue to draw scrutiny. Experts like Austin Kocher from Syracuse University have raised doubts about the administration’s claims of deporting the most serious offenders, highlighting discrepancies in available data.

The evolving strategies of ICE under the current administration underscore a significant shift in immigration enforcement policies, prompting ongoing debate and scrutiny.
