IRS and ICE Close to Finalizing Data Sharing Agreement for Deportations

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) are on the verge of finalizing an agreement that would allow the sharing of tax data to aid in the deportation of undocumented immigrants. This development, first reported by ABC7, has sparked widespread concern among immigrant communities and advocacy groups.

According to CNN, the proposed data-sharing deal would enable ICE to access sensitive tax information filed by undocumented immigrants, potentially using it to track down and deport them. This move has raised fears about the privacy and safety of these individuals, who may now be reluctant to file their taxes.

The Guardian reports that former President Donald Trump has expressed support for the initiative, viewing it as a means to enforce immigration laws more stringently. Critics argue that this could deter undocumented immigrants from contributing to the economy through tax payments, fearing repercussions from ICE.

The New York Times highlights that discussions between the IRS and ICE have been ongoing for months, with the final agreement expected to be signed in the coming weeks. This development has reignited debates over immigration policy and the rights of undocumented workers in the United States.
