RESOLUTION

Recognizing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for their work in 
protecting communities from violent criminals and illegal aliens.

Whereas the Biden administration failed to identify and prosecute individuals 
illegally entering our country through the southern border;
Whereas U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) work disrupts foreign 
criminal and drug networks, making all United States citizens safer;
Whereas some State and local law enforcement agencies have stopped sharing data 
with Federal law enforcement officers, preventing swift identification 
of dangerous criminals;
Whereas ICE agents have received an 8,000 percent increase in death threats 
against them and their families, even as they arrest murderers, 
assailants, and drug traffickers;
Whereas agitators, including elected politicians, are encouraging violence 
against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) personnel, leading to a 
significant increase in assaults against them;
Whereas law enforcement officers protecting United States citizens from violent 
criminals should not be the subject of physical violence; and
Whereas ICE officers have taken on additional roles during the DHS shutdown, 
assisting Transportation Security Administration employees in checking 
identification and providing additional security: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives--
(1) reaffirms its support for U.S. Immigration and Customs 
Enforcement (ICE) agents and staff performing their duties 
while facing threats and harassment;
(2) calls on State and local law enforcement officers to 
stand with their Federal partners in investigating threats made 
against all Federal law enforcement officers;
(3) condemns all forms of political violence, especially 
against officers carrying out their sworn duty to protect 
United States citizens from violent criminals; and
(4) thanks ICE agents for their expanded role at airports 
amid the partial government shutdown.
