DHS Orders ICE to Halt Massive Workplace Raids

HeadlineOct 13, 2021

The Biden administration has ordered Immigration and Customs Enforcement to stop conducting massive raids at job sites known to employ undocumented workers, and vowed to establish a more effective strategy to target employers who engage in exploitative labor practices. Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas urged ICE to review its enforcement policies in the next 60 days and ordered the agency to enact rules that would better protect undocumented workers who report their employers for abuse or substandard wages from deportation.
