The question is what do we do with that fraction of the immigrant population that is committing crimes that has committed crimes how do we and thats where i. C. E. Needs the cooperation of local Law Enforcement agents because its the local agencies who know the problems. Thank you very much. Chair recognizes gentleman from illinois for his questions.
