ICE Arrests Illegal Aliens In Baltimore Worksite Enforcement Operation
As part of an ongoing criminal investigation, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents executed a criminal search warrant, civil warrants, and conducted consent searches at nine business locations in the Baltimore area. ICE also seized a bank account belonging to Jones Industrial Network (JIN) worth more than $600,000 and preliminarily arrested 69 employees and other immigration status violators working at JIN and at companies that contracted with JIN for workers.
The criminal search warrant was executed at JIN, a temporary employment agency that contracts with companies in the Baltimore area; civil warrants were executed at five businesses and consent searches were conducted at three businesses where JIN allegedly provided illegal alien workers.
“Today’s enforcement action is part of ICE’s aggressive pursuit of employers who violate the law," said Julie L. Myers, Assistant Secretary for Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “Worksite enforcement actions target a key component of the illicit support structure that enables illegal immigration to flourish. No employer, regardless of industry or location is immune from complying with the nation’s laws. ICE and our law enforcement partners will continue to bring all of our authorities to bear in this fight using criminal charges, asset seizures, administrative arrests and deportations.” Read more at ice.gov.

Under a provision of the Immigration Act of 1990, the Attorney General may designate nationals of a foreign state to be eligible for TPS with a finding that conditions in that country pose a danger to personal safety due to ongoing armed conflict or an environmental disaster. Grants of TPS are initially made for periods of 6 to 18 months and may be extended depending on the situation. Removal proceedings are suspended against aliens while they are in Temporary Protected Status.
