The unions that represent ICE and Border Patrol agents endorsed President Trump's recent initiatives on immigration. In a joint press release they stated: As representatives of the nation’s Frontline immigration officers and agents responsible for enforcing our laws and protecting our borders, we fully support and appreciate President Trump’s swift and decisive action to keep the American people safe and allow law enforcement to do its job. We applaud the three executive orders he has issued to date, and are confident they will make America safer and more prosperous. Morale amongst our agents and officers has increased exponentially since the signing of the orders. The men and women of ICE and Border Patrol will work tirelessly to keep criminals, terrorists, and public safety threats out of this country, which remains the number one target in the world – and President Trump’s actions now empower us to fulfill this life saving mission, and it will indeed save thousands of lives and billions of dollars.

Some immigration control advocates have suggested that they would be willing to accept a Dream Act in exchange for the substantial cuts in legal immigration proposed by Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) as well a mandatory E-Verify system, to help prevent hiring of illegal aliens.
