(CNSNews.com) - The White House announced Tuesday that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement released its first weekly list of immigration detainer requests that local law enforcement has not complied with as requested in an executive order that the president signed on Jan. 25.
The list, which contains information during the period of Jan. 28 to Feb. 3, 2017, reveals that 3,083 immigration detainer requests were ignored by local law enforcement authorities.
“Yesterday, pursuant to the President’s executive order on interior enforcement that he signed on January 25th, the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency, ICE, released its first weekly list of detainee requests, which local law enforcement agencies have failed to comply with,” White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer said Tuesday.
“These examples where criminal illegals who have been arrested or convicted, in many cases, of serious and violent crimes threaten public safety,” he said. “In each instance, local law enforcement is refusing to cooperate with ICE in its efforts to remove illegal immigrants who have committed a crime. It is part of the president’s continued efforts to keep our communities safe.
