How does ICE handle the detention and removal of undocumented immigrants?

ICE handles the detention and removal of undocumented immigrants through a comprehensive and prioritized approach. They focus on individuals who pose a threat to national security, public safety, or have committed serious crimes. Detention is used for those who present a flight risk or danger to the community. However, ICE also prioritizes alternatives to detention, such as electronic monitoring or supervised release. Removal proceedings and deportation are undertaken following a fair legal process. Collaboration with local law enforcement and international partners helps ensure effective enforcement. Additionally, ICE works to provide humane treatment and care to detainees, including medical services and access to legal resources. The ultimate goal is to protect the homeland while adhering to due process and maintaining a humanitarian approach.
