080525 Tell Congress: Investigate ICE's Quota Deception Scheme
Trump's administration just got caught in a massive lie about ICE arrest quotas—promoting aggressive targets publicly while denying them to federal judges.
Here's how the deception works:
White House Deputy Chief Stephen Miller announces "goal of minimum 3,000 arrests for ICE every day" on Fox News
ICE agents face pressure to triple daily arrests from previous levels
Unconstitutional raids target immigrant communities to hit numbers
Advocacy groups (e.g. ACLU, National Immigrant Justice Center) sue, alleging quota-driven violations of constitutional rights
DOJ attorneys tell federal courts "no numerical quota or target for arrests" exists, after the damage has been done
