Acting ICE Director Thomas Homan responded Wednesday to criticism from California's Democratic senators, who expressed concern over his agency's increased enforcement of immigration laws in the Golden State.

In a letter last month, Sens. Dianne Feinstein and Kamala Harris wrote:

    We write to request we be immediately briefed on the troubling reports that ICE is targeting raids in California. Please ensure we are provided with a full accounting of how ICE raids are being prioritized and conducted, including all relevant documents, memorandums, and email exchanges regarding these raids in California.

    We firmly believe that law enforcement must prioritize dangerous criminals, not undocumented immigrants who do not pose a threat to public safety. Diverting resources in an effort to punish California and score political points is an abhorrent abuse of power, not to mention a terrible misuse of scarce resources.

The senators took particular issue with an interview by Homan on Fox News in which he said California "better hold on tight” after the sanctuary state law went into effect.
