Sen. Kamala Harris (D) of California told NBC's Kasie Hunt that she believes the time has come for the country to reexamine the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency of the Department of Homeland Security, in the midst of the current furor over the separation of illegal alien adults from children at the U.S. border with Mexico. Some Democrats have called for the abolition of the agency, which has taken thousands of illegal alien minors into custody and housed them at detention facilities in various parts of the country. During the interview, Harris signaled that she may be contemplating a presidential run.
"I think there’s no question that we’ve got to critically reexamine ICE and its role and the way it is being administered and the work it is doing," Harris told Hunt. "And we need to probably think about starting from scratch because there's a lot that is wrong with the way that it's conducting itself. And we need to deal with that." Harris continued, saying "First of all, I don't think that the government should be in the position of separating families and that is clearly what is part of what's happening at ICE and DHS."
