ICE Chief: Lawmakers Must Stop ‘Ugly Rhetoric' and ‘Vilification' of Immigration Agents
|
[Daily Signal] The chief of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement called out members of Congress for demonizing federal agents while not addressing relevant laws.
"The safety and security of our personnel‐officers and non-officers alike‐is our primary concern. I think that’s why we’ve been so strident with our concerns about the ugly rhetoric that has been utilized around this issue and the vilification of the men and women of ICE," Matt Albence, acting director of the agency, told The Daily Signal on Thursday during a White House press briefing.
A string of threats against ICE agents and facilities has occurred in recent months, including a shooting at one facility in San Antonio, Texas, and an attempted firebomb attack at another in Tacoma, Washington. Police also arrested protesters in Washington, D.C., for charging an ICE building.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has called ICE detention centers for illegal aliens "concentration camps," invoking Nazi Germany.
Other lawmakers on the state and federal levels also have been highly critical of ICE and say they want to abolish the agency within the Department of Homeland Security.
