House Subcommittee Subpoenas Immigration Records - Denver News Story - KMGH Denver
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- A House subcommittee subpoenaed the Department of Homeland Security on Friday for the names of tens of thousands of illegal immigrants who were arrested by local authorities during the past three years but whom federal immigration officials declined to take into custody.
Republican lawmakers said that under the Secure Communities program, Homeland Security identified 630,000 inmates nationwide as illegal immigrants but declined to take custody of 300,000 accused of "low-level" crimes. The Republicans accused the agency of hiding the names of those immigrants, perhaps to conceal any crimes they may have committed after their release.
