Statement Re Border Patrol Operations in North Carolina

The uncertainty of the presence of Border Patrol and ICE is not good for anyone, and I am hopeful that we will receive some clarity on the ICE operations in our community. The reason I supported recent legislation was to help ICE to take custody of detained criminals at the jail, which is safer for our communities. I hope that the federal officials will focus their efforts on criminals and communicate with local law enforcement to maintain the public safety of our citizens in our communities.

Thank you,

Rep. Carla Cunningham
