NEW: DHS says
@ICEgov is not arresting illegal immigrants at worksites in Kansas—
@SecMullinDHS saying, “ICE is not conducting worksite operations in Kansas. ICE law enforcement has conducted operations targeting heinous criminals including murderers, rapists, and drug traffickers and illegal aliens with final orders of removal.”
This comes as livestock associations in Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma released a joint statement pushing back on workplace enforcement operations and local news outlets are reporting that “some businesses in southwest Kansas are shutting their doors temporarily this week as federal immigration agents make arrests.”
