Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)

Read a random definition: donatory

A quick definition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE):

ICE is a government agency that helps protect the United States from crimes and illegal activities that involve people and goods coming into the country from other places. It has four different parts that work together to investigate and stop these activities. ICE's main job is to make sure that people and things coming into the United States are safe and legal. If someone breaks the rules, ICE can investigate and take action to stop them. This might include sending them back to their home country if they came to the United States illegally.

A more thorough explanation:

The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is a government agency that was created in 2003 to protect the United States from cross-border crimes and prevent the illegal movement of goods and people from getting into the country. ICE is the largest investigative agency under the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and has four operational directorates:

  • Homeland Security Investigations (HSI)
  • Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO)
  • Office of the Principal Legal Advisor (OPLA)
  • Management and Administration (M&A)

The main mission of ICE is to ensure public safety and national security by enforcing immigration laws and preventing the entry of illegal goods and people into the country. For example, ICE may investigate a person who submitted a fraudulent visa application or brought counterfeit merchandise into the U.S. During the removal process, ICE manages the detention and deportation of the person who violated the immigration laws.

Overall, ICE plays a critical role in protecting the United States from threats to its security and integrity.
