Pressing Sanctuaries to Change Their Ways
By Dan Cadman on July 20, 2017
Tom Homan, director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), has promised to get tough on sanctuary jurisdictions that harbor illegal alien criminals and refuse to cooperate with ICE agents by either holding the criminal aliens on ICE detainers after arrest or by notifying the agents of the criminal aliens' release dates from jail, so that they can be taken into custody for removal proceedings.
Homan says that his agency will be focusing extra manpower and attention in such areas in order to be sure that, to the extent possible, criminal aliens released by police can't just return to the streets and continue with business as usual. This is a good but unfortunate necessity under the circumstances, since it's always more resource-intensive (not to mention less safe for the officers and the public) to have to track down criminal aliens when local law enforcement chooses not to cooperate and simply lets them go.
