Trump DHS Chucks Two Biden-Era Immigration Policies Into The Dustbin

The Trump administration rescinded two major Biden-era 🛂Immigration initiatives Tuesday, further cementing the White House’s dedication to tougher enforcement policies.

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced a directive that rescinds the Biden administration’s guidelines on so-called “sensitive locations” where 🛂Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are prohibited from conducting enforcement activities. The administration also announced it would be rolling back the “broad use” of humanitarian parole and returning it to a case-by-case basis.

The Trump administration lauded the moves as a step away from the soft-on-enforcement approach taken by the previous White House.

“This action empowers the brave men and women in and ICE to enforce our 🛂Immigration laws and catch criminal aliens — including murders and rapists — who have illegally come into our country,” a DHS spokesperson said of the revocation of sensitive locations. “Criminals will no longer be able to hide in America’s schools and churches to avoid arrest.”

“The Trump Administration will not tie the hands of our brave law enforcement, and instead trusts them to use common sense,” the spokesperson continued.
