Dem leaders pull back from hard-line immigration demand - Page 2

Are we? Lmao you’re crazy if you think any politician is going to prioritize us over voting Americans who can vote them in and out. Oh wait maybe that’s why republicans don’t want to offer us citizenship so readily

Last I checked only Dems beg for money from minorities and immigrants. At least the Repubs don't lie about it

At least..... what in the world are you talking about?

So your rational is they told me I'm going to kill you, so is okay? your IQ must be subhuman. why don't you go get a MAGA hat too?

It took me almost a year to find out what MAGA was. I thought it was the nickname of a magician.

FY 2019 Requested Spending Authority: $8.568 billion [FY 2017 Omnibus Enacted Spending Authority: $6.770 billion (26.6 percent increase); FY 2018 President’s Budget Request: $7.942 billion (7.9 percent increase)]. The number of full-time equivalent (FTE) positions would increase by 3,974 positions over FY 2017, to 23,439.

This request includes an increase of more than 3,000 positions “to support 20 percent of the 10,000 Law Enforcement Officers (LEOs) and commensurate support staff mandated in Executive Order (EO) 13768 Enhancing Public Safety in the Interior of the United States.”
Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO): $4.864 billion [FY 2017 Omnibus Enacted Discretionary Funding: $3.709 billion (31.1 percent increase); FY 2018 President’s Budget Request: $4.861 billion (0.1 percent increase)]. The FY 2019 request calls for 9,835 full-time equivalent (FTE) positions, an increase of 1,890 positions over FY 2017. ERO carries out the apprehension, detention, and removal of removable individuals from the U.S.

Custody Operations: $3.294 billion [FY 2017 Omnibus Enacted Discretionary Funding: $2.705 billion (21.8 percent increase); FY 2018 President’s Budget Request: $3.601 billion (8.5 percent decrease)]. The FY 2019 request calls for 5,276 FTE positions, a decrease of 73 positions from FY 2017.

The FY 2019 Budget-in-Brief requests $275.6 million dollars to maintain 52,000 detention beds, 2,500 of which would be family detention beds. Of the 49,500 adult detention beds, 46,846 would be funded by discretionary appropriations and the remaining 2,654 would be funded by fees.
There is a discrepancy in that the FY 2019 ICE Budget Overview states the FY 2019 budget request would maintain an average daily population of 47,000 detention beds (2,500 of which would be family detention beds).
The conflicting detention bed numbers requested by the administration represent a 23.3 percent (47,000 detention beds) or 36.5 percent (52,000 detention beds) increase over FY 2017’s average daily population of 38,106 detention beds (36,628 adult beds and 1,476 family beds).
Fugitive Operations: $255.9 million [FY 2017 Omnibus Enacted Discretionary Funding: $151.8 million (68.6 percent increase); FY 2018 President’s Budget Request: $184.7 million (38.5 percent increase)]. FTE positions would increase by 471 positions to 1,253 FTE positions.

Wait ice is going to give away free beds for undocumented immigrants? Dmn this country really love us. I love the fact they are called detention beds i think they have a thing on the sides so you dont fell off the bed while sleeping.

ICE cares about it's detainees.
