DHS Fails to Meet Target Immigration Goals

Homeland Security Today: More than one year into the administration of President Barack Obama, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) still must pursue some key changes in support of immigration reform to embrace Obama’s intended immigration policy objectives, a policy group said Tuesday. DHS must move forward in due process for illegal immigrants by creating an ombudsman at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to investigate complaints and keep its focus on detention reform at ICE, recommended the Immigration Policy Center in its report, The Challenge of Reform: An Analysis of Immigration Policy in the First Year of the Obama Administration.
