U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is the biggest investigative agency operating as part of the United States Department of Homeland Security. ICE was formed in 2003 by the federal government as a result of the 9/11 attacks. Its primary function is to protect national security and public safety, as well as strengthening the nation’s borders through the enforcement of the federal laws concerning border control, customs, trade, and immigration.
ICE is equipped with about 19,000 employees in more than 400 posts around the world. ICE is responsible for enforcing over 400 U.S. federal statues in its mission of ensuring national security and public safety.
