Statement from Secretary Mayorkas Regarding the Supreme Court Decision on Immigration Enforcement

Today, Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro N. Mayorkas released the following statement regarding the Supreme Court’s ruling on immigration enforcement:

“We applaud the Supreme Court’s ruling. DHS looks forward to reinstituting these Guidelines, which had been effectively applied by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers to focus limited resources and enforcement actions on those who pose a threat to our national security, public safety, and border security. The Guidelines enable DHS to most effectively accomplish its law enforcement mission with the authorities and resources provided by Congress."
