Analysis: Biden Restrictions on ICE Agents to Devastate U.S. Border TownsJohn Binder 14 Feb 2021
President Joe Biden’s order putting restrictions on the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency will have a devastating impact on border towns across the United States, an analysis finds.
Biden’s order, issued by DHS on January 20, instructs ICE agents to only arrest and deport illegal aliens who are known or suspected terrorists, recent border crossers, or those who have recently been convicted of an aggravated felony — not including those convicted of drunk driving, simple assault, and various drug crimes.
The order means localities that have historically cooperated with ICE agents in turning illegal aliens over to their custody for arrest and deportation will be blocked from doing so.
An analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies’ Director of Policy Jessica Vaughan finds that border towns, cities north of the border, and jurisdictions in between will be most devastated by revolving door criminal policy where local law enforcement is forced to release illegal aliens back into their communities instead of being turned over to ICE.
Arrest data reveals that Texas counties like El Paso, Reeves, Howard, Harris, Hidalgo, Dallas, Willacy, Garza, Travis, Cameron, Tarrant, Concho, Walker, Webb, and Bexar turned over the most illegal aliens, who were not recently convicted aggravated felons, to ICE in 2018.
