Houston police now require sergeant approval and a 30-minute ICE response window before acting on immigration warrants, ending direct transfers to ICE.
Houston Police Department has updated its immigration policy, requiring sergeant approval and a 30-minute ICE response window before acting on administrative immigration warrants, ending direct transports of individuals to ICE.
The change follows reports of officers violating guidelines by detaining people based solely on immigration status, though no disciplinary actions were taken.
Mayor John Whitmire and Chief Noe Diaz emphasized compliance with state law and maintaining community trust, while critics say the move is overdue and highlight risks from outdated federal records.
