H.R. 5589: 

To direct the Secretary of Homeland Security to transfer to United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement all functions of the Customs Patrol Officers unit operating on the Tohono O’odham Indian reservation.

Published:  Tue, Jan 28th 2014 @ 9:30 am EST

Sponsored by:  Rep. Mark Souder [R-IN3, 2003-2010] in the 109th congress

NumbersUSA's Position:  

Support

The bill would transfer the duties of the Shadow Wolves Customs Patrol unit to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. (This unique tracking unit, operating solely along the part of the border occupied by the Tohono O’odham Nation, has been greatly successful in pursuing smugglers and maintaining order along the border, but its relegation to Customs and Border Protection, which does not consider itself responsible for intelligence gathering and evidence collection, has stifled the unit’s effectiveness.)

NumbersUSA Education & Research Foundation provides a civil forum for Americans of all political and ethnic backgrounds to focus on a single issue, the numerical level of U.S. immigration. We educate opinion leaders, policymakers and the public on immigration legislation, policies and their consequences. We favor reductions in immigration numbers toward traditional levels that would allow present and future generations of Americans to enjoy a stabilizing U.S. population and a high degree of individual liberty, mobility, environmental quality, worker fairness and fiscal responsibility.

Those who need to refer to NumbersUSA with a short, descriptive modifier should call it an “immigration-reduction organization.”
