Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) released its first “Declined Detainer” report on July 14, highlighting the dangers posed when sanctuary cities block efforts by ICE to remove an illegal immigrant from the country.
The report, set to be released quarterly and mandated by President Donald Trump’s 2017 executive order on “Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States,” illustrates incidents that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal year 2018.
