A memorandum dated February 21, 2017, obtained by ProPublica via FOIA, shows guidance ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officers received, stating that regardless of criminal histories, “ERO officers will take enforcement action against all removable aliens encountered in the course of their duties.” The memo also contains guidance on detention, stating that “the agency is currently expanding detention space to support the E.O.’s termination of ‘catch-and-release’ policies.” Additionally the memo discusses the use of parole and other release, the processing and treatment of unaccompanied children, and more.
