US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) is now authorized to expand its law enforcement authorities. Newly-minted USCIS 1811 classified officers (commonly known as special agents) will be empowered to investigate, arrest, and present for prosecution those who violate America's immigration laws. The Director of USCIS now has the authority to order expedited removal and investigate civil and criminal violations of the immigration laws within the jurisdiction of USCIS. USCIS will handle investigations from start to finish, instead of referring certain cases to Homeland Security Investigation (HSI) or ICE.
USCIS is planning to recruit and train special agents who will be able to make arrests, carry firearms, and execute warrants against people who have allegedly violated immigration laws.
