DHS Calls on Governor Walz and Mayor Frey to Honor ICE Arrest Detainers of More than 1,360 Criminal Illegal Aliens in the State’s Custody

 

Governor Walz and Mayor Frey REFUSE to protect Minnesotans and instead protect violent criminal illegal aliens

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) today is calling on Governor Tim Walz and Mayor Jacob Frey to put the safety of Minnesotans first and honor U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrest detainers of the more than 1,360 including violent criminals in the custody across all jurisdictions in Minnesota.

Since President Trump took office, Governor Walz and his fellow sanctuary politicians have refused to cooperate with ICE and released nearly 470 criminal illegal aliens back onto the streets of Minnesota.

“We are calling on Governor Walz and Mayor Frey to stop releasing criminal illegal aliens from Minnesota's jails to re-perpetuate their crimes,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “ICE has more than 1,360 arrest detainers for the criminal illegal aliens in their custody. Honor them today. It is common sense. Criminal illegal aliens should not be released back onto our streets to terrorize more innocent Americans.”
