Greeley ICE Office Debate

GREELEY ICE OFFICE DEBATE
In August it was reported that Colorado Springs will soon be home to a regional office of the Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (or ICE, formerly the INS). There has not been a great deal of fanfare, and the move is being welcomed by El Paso County Sheriff Terry Maketa. But as Brian Larson from KUNC reports, things are quite different in Greeley. On Tuesday that city’s Human Relations Commission strongly rejected a resolution to open an ICE office in Greeley. [LISTEN] [TRANSCRIPT]
