Representative Don Bacon discussed reforms for ICE and CBP on CNN, highlighting instances of overreach and advocating for measures like body cameras and ID requirements. He emphasized the need to balance enforcement with addressing past issues and finding common ground with Democrats.
On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Arena,” Rep. Don Bacon said that things like “body cameras, wearing your IDs, not wearing masks,” “make sense” for ICE and CBP . Bacon said, “I would say that there was overreach done by Border Patrol and ICE .
I have a couple incidences in Omaha where people were in Omaha legally with legal work permits and were detained and were in the process of being deported, until we intervened. And so, we do need to rein in ICE and Border Patrol. I think they — we have new leadership. I’ve got to keep stressing this, the secretary has been fired. The main proponents of the overreach have been removed. I think Director Homan, for example, is doing a much more sound, balanced policy.” He continued, “So, I think this is doable for the greatest country in the world to realize, yes, there’s been overreach, but we’ve got to know that there bad people here, too, that we’ve got to take care of. And I just think there’s some commonsense middle ground with our Democratic colleagues that should be able to open this up and get past this, body cameras, wearing your IDs, not wearing masks, things like this. They make sense.”Jane Fonda: Trump Is Anathema to Leadership, He's 'Not Well'Exclusive — Former Denmark Ambassador: We Must Get Control of Greenland Before China DoesExclusive — Former Denmark Ambassador: Trump Has Been Talking About Iran’s Strategic Kharg Island Since 1988Prosecutor: Two Charged in ‘Largest Alleged Money Laundering Operation’ in Los Angeles School District’s History Tyler Perry Arrives at Atlanta Airport with ‘Significant’ Amount of Cash for TSA Workers, Gets Turned Down
