Top immigration official says ICE is ready to deport 1 million undocumented immigrants

The Trump administration's top official at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) said immigration authorities are ready to identify, detain and eventually deport approximately one million undocumented immigrants with pending removal orders.

"They're ready to just perform their mission, which is to go and find and detain and then deport the approximately one million people who have final removal orders," Acting USCIS Director Ken Cuccinelli said on "Face the Nation" Sunday, referring to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the Homeland Security branch charged with removal operations.

Cuccinelli, an immigration hardliner who took the helm of the agency last month, said it is within ICE's discretion to determine who among those with final orders of deportation will be targeted in operations, suggesting the full pool of approximately one million immigrants might not face deportation after all.

Woodsman, plenty of folks you would consider "real Americans" are the owners/operators of the livestock/food processing plants, farms, construction contractors, restaraunt and hospitality, cleaning services, etc. companies that are knowingly hiring illegals. The problem is folks have been fooled for a long time into demonizing immigrants while their employers continue to promote them coming here illegally.
