To say that the
National Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Council does not like the
way things are going in our nation may be an understatement. According to V. Saxena, the council recently announced its “first-ever
presidential endorsement.”
The recent announcement by Chris
Crane, the president of the council, states, “We hereby endorse Donald J.
Trump, and urge all Americans, especially the millions of lawful immigrants
living within our country, to support Donald J. Trump, and to protect American
jobs, wages and lives.”
The council represents “7,600
federal immigration officers and law enforcement support staff members.” Crane
explains that the council chose to put the decision to its members, and the
council members voted for Trump with Hillary Clinton receiving only five
percent of that vote. Crane explains the results of the vote by saying that
Clinton supports “the most radical immigration proposal in U.S. history.”
The council desires a different
proposal that would stop the flood of immigrants across the U.S. borders, end
sanctuary cities, save the lives of American citizens, and “restore immigration
security.”
I am very pleased to know of
this endorsement by the National ICE Council. It tells me that the agents
themselves want something different, and I feel more hope about the immigration
situation.
