Washington D.C. In a landmark agreement, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have forged a partnership to enhance efforts in identifying and pursuing illegal immigrants who are subject to deportation due to criminal activity.
The collaboration will enable the two agencies to share data and resources, allowing for a more comprehensive approach to targeting individuals involved in both immigration violations and criminal offenses. DHS officials stated that the partnership will focus on individuals who pose a significant threat to public safety and national security.
"This partnership with the IRS is a crucial step in our ongoing efforts to enforce immigration laws and protect our communities," said a DHS spokesperson. "By combining our resources and expertise, we can more effectively identify and remove individuals who are not only in violation of immigration laws but are also engaged in criminal activity."
The IRS will provide DHS with relevant financial data and investigative support to aid in the identification of individuals involved in illicit activities. This information will be used to build cases against those subject to deportation.
Critics of the agreement have raised concerns about potential privacy violations and the scope of the collaboration. However, government officials have assured the public that all activities will be conducted in accordance with existing laws and regulations.
The partnership between the IRS and DHS is expected to significantly enhance the government's ability to target criminal illegal immigrants and strengthen national security.
