The White House and Department of Homeland Security are working together to craft legislation that would attempt to purge "loopholes" from the immigration system that entice foreign nationals to illegally immigrate to the U.S. and incentivise employers to illegally hire them. The legislative package includes reforms that will lessen legal limitations imposed on law enforcement that restrict who they can detain and the duration of time they can detain them.
Officials say that these restrictions are often exploited by well-informed smuggling organizations and encourage more illegal crossings into the U.S.
