ICE Declines to Release Information on Immigrant Detainees
By Elise Foley


Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse, a Syracuse University-based organization responsible for much of the non-partisan data analysis on immigration enforcement, is accusing Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials of purposefully withholding information on immigrant detainees. After TRAC requested detailed information on the enforcement process through the Freedom of Information Act, ICE responded by saying much of the data was unavailable — even if ICE has previously released information on the same topic. ICE also set a high price for going through the data: $450,000.
