Trump delays ICE raids but threatens deportations unless Congress revamps asylum

CBS News  

Washington — President Trump on Saturday delayed a wave of roundups of undocumented families which immigration authorities were expected to start carrying out Sunday. Earlier Saturday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a Democrat from California, made a last-ditch attempt to convince the president to halt the roundups — which she said would result in "collateral damage" to children, who could be U.S. citizens, of undocumented immigrants. "U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers are true American heroes and the President's postponement protects officers and provides an opportunity for Congress to swiftly work together in a bipartisan fashion to end the incentives for child smuggling and ensure all illegal aliens can be promptly returned upon apprehension at the southern border," she added. As part of an effort by the administration to send a "powerful message" of deterrence to families in Central America — which have journeyed north towards the U.S. in record numbers the past few months — ICE had been expected to carry out a series of operations in major U.S. cities to apprehend and deport families who received an order of removal from a judge. Although the president claimed last week that "millions" would be deported under a new wave of raids, such an operation would be logistically impossible given the resources and manpower ICE has at its disposal.
