DHS conference committee discussing ways to weaken interior enforcement in exchange for border funding.

Democrats are pushing for more money for "Alternatives to Detention", which includes the use of community support programs and ankle bracelets.
ICE told Congress that "Alternatives to Detention" cost U.S. taxpayers $75,000 per removal compared to only $1,600 for aliens kept in detention. Also said that aliens put into "Alternatives to Detention" are more likely to abscond.
Reports that Congressional negotiators could block former Attorney General Jeff Sessions' ruling to strengthen 'credible fear' standard. Sessions' ruling reversed Obama-era practice that weakened 'credible fear' and led to huge surge of family units and unaccompanied minors.
