Top Immigration Officials to Testify Before Congress Amid Controversy
Congress is gearing up for a significant hearing as key immigration officials from the Trump administration are set to testify. This comes in the wake of recent protester deaths and a looming deadline for Department of Homeland Security funding. The hearing will feature the Acting ICE director and the Commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, who are expected to face tough questions regarding immigration enforcement practices. Lawmakers are particularly focused on the increase in ICE operations and the implications for communities after a series of fatal incidents, including in Minnesota. As the congressional panel aims to scrutinize the tactics used by these agencies, live updates will cover the proceedings, which have garnered attention from various stakeholders.
