"Immigration enforcement" is about to get $175 billion to spend over the next 4.25 years.
For some perspective: Last year's budget for the entire Russian MILITARY was $146 billion.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

The House just passed the bill. Here’s our best sense of the situation based on available data. We’ll update next week with analysis of the version that gets signed into law.
I’m really grateful to the people who got some of the worst provisions removed and who fought to stop this terrible bill.
