WASHINGTON — The White House considered a plan to release detained immigrants into"sanctuary cities," three people familiar with the idea confirmed Friday — a plan that critics branded as an effort to use migrants as pawns to go after political opponents.
The plan, which was first reported by the Washington Post, is one of many ideas considered by the White House in recent months as President Donald Trump has railed against an ever-increasing number of Central American migrant families crossing the southern border. Officials are at the limits of what they can do, and have proposed and recycled numerous ideas that have never come to fruition.
"The extent of this administration's cynicism and cruelty cannot be overstated," said Pelosi spokeswoman Ashley Etienne."Using human beings — including little children — as pawns in their warped game to perpetuate fear and demonize immigrants is despicable, and in some cases, criminal." In response, some cities have banished ICE from jails where agents could easily pick up immigration violators. Police in New York, Baltimore and Seattle rarely, if ever, give out information on when suspected criminals in the U.S. illegally will be released from custody.
