D.C. police to increase cooperation with ICE as part of Trump's crackdown

The policy allows the Metropolitan Police Department to share information and assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement with transportation of detainees, Chief Pamela Smith said.

  • D.C. Police Chief Pamela Smith issued an executive order allowing limited cooperation with federal immigration authorities, including sharing information about non-custodial individuals during traffic stops.
  • The order prohibits D.C. police from inquiring about immigration status solely to enforce civil immigration laws, according to Smith's directive.
  • Recent arrests showed 45 individuals apprehended, with 29 related to immigration offenses amidst Trump's federal takeover of D.C. police to address rising crime.
  • Smith's order marks a shift from D.C.'s tradition as a sanctuary city, as noted by Border Czar Tom Homan.
