REPORT: ICE BROKE THE LAW AND ITS OWN REGULATIONS IN RAIDS

According to an article on nytimes.com:  “Armed federal immigration agents have illegally pushed and shoved their way into homes in New York and New Jersey in hundreds of predawn raids that violated their own agency rules as well as the Constitution, according to a study to be released on Wednesday by the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law.”

Fortunately, the Obama administration sees the harm in this lawless, ineffective approach to dealing with the immigration crisis.  ICE is now being forced to shift its focus to employers of the undocumented.  For the most part, employers should have the resources to fight back if they are wrongly targeted, unlike those individuals(including US Citizens or those lawfully present) who were rounded up like cattle in the home and workplace raids that took place under the Bush administration.
