Jeff Sessions: US is not going after non-criminal illegal immigrants

Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Thursday evening said the Justice Department does not intend to go after illegal immigrants who have not committed crimes in addition to illegally entering the U.S.

“That is not where we – ICE [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] is focusing its efforts at all,” Sessions told Fox News host Bill O’Reilly after being asked if he planned to target “chamber maids” and farm workers. “We are doing a lot of good things, for example … as we continue to build a wall and beef up our forces and bring in more judges, we’ll be even more successful.”
