Immigration attorneys, civil rights groups hopeful about Harris Co. Sheriff Ed Gonzalez nomination to lead ICE
Gonzalez nomination to head ICE met with excitement, caution
FOX 26 Reporter Maria Salazar has more reaction as President Biden will nominate Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez to head ICE.
Ruby Powers, an immigration attorney in Houston and spokesperson for the American Immigration Lawyers Association, was in a staff meeting when she heard the news of his nomination. She says it took a while for the news to sink in but describes it as good news. I think that Sheriff Gonzalez is the right choice. I ll be sad to see him go from Houston as he s been a pillar in our community, but I think he ll serve us all well in this role and this is a good role for him, Powers told FOX 26.
