ICE plans to reduce the arrest of migrants and deportations due to lack of funds after the Republican blockade in Congress. The deficit, which also affects the Border Patrol, could force the elimination of places in detention centers and even stop the deportation of migrants with an expulsion order.
The bill included $7.6 billion for ICE and would have dramatically increased places in immigration detention centers. If these funds, on the southwest border the agencies will not have enough money for new hires necessary to address the crisis.
