The federal government's relationship with sanctuary cities has become so strained that some jurisdictions automatically reject emails from ICE.gov addresses, the agency's acting director told The Washington Times.

Migrants who crossed the Rio Grande and entered the U.S. from Mexico are lined up for processing by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Sept. 23, 2023, in Eagle Pass, Texas. The federal government’s relationship with sanctuary cities has become so strained that some jurisdictions automatically reject emails from ICE.gov addresses, the agency’s acting director told The Washington Times.

“If you think about it, the Marine Corps is part of the Navy. … But it’s the Marine Corps. They know exactly what the Marine Corps does versus what the Navy does, traditionally. That’s exactly the idea for HSI,” Mr. Lechleitner said. In his interview with The Times, Mr. Lechleitner addressed one of those key battles: He wants Congress to fund 50,000 detention beds for his agency.

Mr. Lechleitner said ICE can detain the big safety and security threats among the migrant population at the current level but needs extra beds to help deter more illegal immigrants. ICE was created during a government reorganization after the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, that also birthed the Homeland Security Department.

“You’re saying, ‘Hey, we’re separating because those other guys are the bad ones, and we’re the good ones,’” he said. “That’s really harmful to those people. You say to the public, ‘OK, these are bad people.’
