U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has potential plans to release thousands of detained immigrants due to a lack of funds, following the Senate’s rejection of a bill aimed at addressing ICE’s $700 million budget shortfall.
This draft plan comes amid challenges faced by the Department of Homeland Security due to an influx of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border, prompting President Biden to request additional funding and resources for border security.
Without sufficient funding, ICE plans to reduce detainees from 38,000 to 22,000, while Customs and Border Protection may also need to scale back operations.
