Republican Susan Collins of Maine voted no.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vote came after a failed Democratic attempt to delay the confirmation proceedings until after a new batch of documents from Pruitt’s state office are made public under court order. Those emails will be released beginning next week.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”J0bYdlOjSeamgI9Rpi9xJowdl2GSn31g”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pruitt has come under fire for coordinating closely with energy companies in his attempts to scale back and block federal environmental regulations. \u003ca href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2014/12/07/us/politics/energy-firms-in-secretive-alliance-with-attorneys-general.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The New York Times reported\u003c/a> that, at times, Pruitt had simply copied and pasted suggested language from energy company onto state letterhead, and then sent it to the EPA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pruitt will almost certainly take the EPA in a drastically new direction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency aggressively drafted and enforced new environmental rules during the Obama administration, tightening federal standards for vehicle emissions, water quality and pollution at power plants. Pruitt is expected to slow or reverse much of that, scaling back regulations and deferring to states on environmental enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Oklahoma’s attorney general, Pruitt led legal challenge after legal challenge against EPA regulations, even describing himself in his official biography as “a leading advocate against the EPA’s activist agenda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pruitt argued during his confirmation hearing that he wasn’t against environmental quality standards — he just thinks that they are better enforced on the state level. “The states are not mere vessels of federal will,” Pruitt testified. “They don’t exist simply to carry out federal dictates from Washington, D.C. There are substantive requirements, obligations, authority, jurisdiction granted to the states under our environmental statutes. That needs to be respected.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s a view shared by many Republicans. But former Bush administration EPA Administrator \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/12/14/505512636/ex-epa-chief-whitman-criticizes-scott-pruitt-trump-s-choice-to-head-the-agency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christine Todd Whitman told NPR\u003c/a> she’s worried Pruitt’s skepticism goes too far for him to be an effective head of the agency. “He seems to have a level of distrust that is unusual coming into an agency, because it doesn’t necessarily bode well for good relations with the career staff that are there, with whom you have to work and you need to get things done,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[contextly_sidebar id=”O2pQsaMwy8i2PQwOZtQ9mfF2yVlvbcYU”]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whitman also questioned Pruitt’s belief in climate change. While Pruitt did tell senators during his confirmation hearing that “science tells us that the climate is changing and human activity in some manner impacts that change,” he said “the extent of that [human] impact is subject to continuing debate and dialogue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of Pruitt’s personal beliefs on climate change, he’s expected to dismantle the EPA’s main rule aimed at lowering the United States’ carbon footprint: the Obama administration’s Clean Power Plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rule would lower carbon dioxide emissions from power plants by about 30 percent over the coming decades, and is the linchpin of the United States’ plan to meet its obligations under the Paris Climate Agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Clean Power Plan is currently held up in federal court. President Trump campaigned on reversing it, and Pruitt was among the state attorneys general who sued to block the regulation from ever taking effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Pruitt is expected to slow or reverse much of that, scaling back regulations and deferring to states on environmental enforcement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As Oklahoma’s attorney general, Pruitt led legal challenge after legal challenge against EPA regulations, even describing himself in his official biography as “a leading advocate against the EPA’s activist agenda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pruitt argued during his confirmation hearing that he wasn’t against environmental quality standards — he just thinks that they are better enforced on the state level. “The states are not mere vessels of federal will,” Pruitt testified. “They don’t exist simply to carry out federal dictates from Washington, D.C. There are substantive requirements, obligations, authority, jurisdiction granted to the states under our environmental statutes. That needs to be respected.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s a view shared by many Republicans. But former Bush administration EPA Administrator \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/12/14/505512636/ex-epa-chief-whitman-criticizes-scott-pruitt-trump-s-choice-to-head-the-agency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Christine Todd Whitman told NPR\u003c/a> she’s worried Pruitt’s skepticism goes too far for him to be an effective head of the agency. “He seems to have a level of distrust that is unusual coming into an agency, because it doesn’t necessarily bode well for good relations with the career staff that are there, with whom you have to work and you need to get things done,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Whitman also questioned Pruitt’s belief in climate change. While Pruitt did tell senators during his confirmation hearing that “science tells us that the climate is changing and human activity in some manner impacts that change,” he said “the extent of that [human] impact is subject to continuing debate and dialogue.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Regardless of Pruitt’s personal beliefs on climate change, he’s expected to dismantle the EPA’s main rule aimed at lowering the United States’ carbon footprint: the Obama administration’s Clean Power Plan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rule would lower carbon dioxide emissions from power plants by about 30 percent over the coming decades, and is the linchpin of the United States’ plan to meet its obligations under the Paris Climate Agreement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Clean Power Plan is currently held up in federal court. President Trump campaigned on reversing it, and Pruitt was among the state attorneys general who sued to block the regulation from ever taking effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Facing criticism from both sides of the aisle, Puzder became the first Trump Cabinet pick whose nomination failed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/AndyPuzder/status/831973151730958336\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puzder put out a statement on Wednesday:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>“After careful consideration and discussions with my family, I am withdrawing my nomination for Secretary of Labor. I am honored to have been considered by President Donald Trump to lead the Department of Labor and put America’s workers and businesses back on a path to sustainable prosperity. I want to thank President Trump for his nomination. I also thank my family and my many supporters—employees, businesses, friends and people who have voiced their praise and hopeful optimism for the policies and new thinking I would have brought to America as Secretary of Labor. While I won’t be serving in the administration, I fully support the President and his highly qualified team.”\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Ahead of his scheduled confirmation hearing on Thursday, which had been delayed several times, it became less clear that Puzder had support from his own party, facing pressure to withdraw. Several Republican senators, including Maine’s Susan Collins, Alaska’s Lisa Murkowski, Georgia’s Johnny Isakson and South Carolina’s Tim Scott, signaled trouble by saying they were undecided on Puzder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement responding to Puzder’s withdrawal, Scott said, “As revelations regarding paying employees in cash, illegal immigration, and comments regarding some of the American workforce came to light, I developed serious concerns regarding his nomination.” Scott said he informed Senate GOP leadership about his reluctance to support Puzder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puzder has faced a range of criticisms, from his record running the Hardee’s and Carl’s Jr.’s fast-food chains to old allegations — since retracted — of domestic abuse made by his ex-wife. More recently, Puzder disclosed he employed a housekeeper who was not in the country legally. Labor unions, which had planned to protest his nomination outside the Senate offices where the hearing was to be held, have argued a Puzder-led Labor Department would undermine their efforts to raise the federal minimum wage, expand the eligibility for overtime pay and enforce wage and hour violations, among other things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puzder, a corporate attorney by training, was first a lawyer for CKE Restaurants, which operates Hardee’s, Carl’s Jr., Green Burrito and Red Burrito restaurants. He helped founder Carl Karcher settle an insider trading case with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Then, after the chain fell into financial trouble following its acquisition of Hardee’s in the late 1990s, Puzder helped turn the company around and in 2000 was named CEO.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As CEO, and later as a Trump campaign adviser, Puzder has been outspoken about his views on labor policy, contributing to newspaper opinion pages and on television, discussing issues such as immigration. During the Republican presidential primaries, Puzder advocated creating a path to legal status for unauthorized workers living in the U.S. He endorsed a more moderate “comprehensive immigration reform,” similar to what candidates Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio were proposing at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That endorsement won him critics from the right, who want the Trump administration to make good on promises to get tougher on illegal immigration and crack down to deport those in the country illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an opinion piece titled “No to Puzder” in the \u003cem>National Review\u003c/em> published Feb. 15, the conservative magazine wrote: “The case for his confirmation has diminished to the point of disappearing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most vocal critics, however, have pointed to his industry’s record at the very department he would lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the fast-food industry overall, during the 2016 federal fiscal year, the agency found violations in 86 percent of the 1,300 cases it investigated for wage theft or for unpaid overtime. CKE Restaurants had one of the lowest incidents of reported cases, faring relatively well in an industry that came in for a lot of criticism under the Obama administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richard Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO, said Puzder would not have enforced labor laws against his own industry. “How can he possibly go out and defend workers,” he said, arguing the agency should be headed by someone with a history of trying to protect the interests of workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

I am honored to have been considered by President Donald Trump to lead the Department of Labor and put America’s workers and businesses back on a path to sustainable prosperity. I want to thank President Trump for his nomination. I also thank my family and my many supporters—employees, businesses, friends and people who have voiced their praise and hopeful optimism for the policies and new thinking I would have brought to America as Secretary of Labor.

More recently, Puzder disclosed he employed a housekeeper who was not in the country legally. Labor unions, which had planned to protest his nomination outside the Senate offices where the hearing was to be held, have argued a Puzder-led Labor Department would undermine their efforts to raise the federal minimum wage, expand the eligibility for overtime pay and enforce wage and hour violations, among other things.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Puzder, a corporate attorney by training, was first a lawyer for CKE Restaurants, which operates Hardee’s, Carl’s Jr., Green Burrito and Red Burrito restaurants. He helped founder Carl Karcher settle an insider trading case with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Then, after the chain fell into financial trouble following its acquisition of Hardee’s in the late 1990s, Puzder helped turn the company around and in 2000 was named CEO.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As CEO, and later as a Trump campaign adviser, Puzder has been outspoken about his views on labor policy, contributing to newspaper opinion pages and on television, discussing issues such as immigration. During the Republican presidential primaries, Puzder advocated creating a path to legal status for unauthorized workers living in the U.S. He endorsed a more moderate “comprehensive immigration reform,” similar to what candidates Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio were proposing at the time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That endorsement won him critics from the right, who want the Trump administration to make good on promises to get tougher on illegal immigration and crack down to deport those in the country illegally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an opinion piece titled “No to Puzder” in the \u003cem>National Review\u003c/em> published Feb. 15, the conservative magazine wrote: “The case for his confirmation has diminished to the point of disappearing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The most vocal critics, however, have pointed to his industry’s record at the very department he would lead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the fast-food industry overall, during the 2016 federal fiscal year, the agency found violations in 86 percent of the 1,300 cases it investigated for wage theft or for unpaid overtime. CKE Restaurants had one of the lowest incidents of reported cases, faring relatively well in an industry that came in for a lot of criticism under the Obama administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Richard Trumka, president of the AFL-CIO, said Puzder would not have enforced labor laws against his own industry. “How can he possibly go out and defend workers,” he said, arguing the agency should be headed by someone with a history of trying to protect the interests of workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Copyright 2017 NPR.

This is regardless of whether it's in the more conservative rural areas or liberal cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/2016/11/14/501737150/rural-voters-played-a-big-part-in-helping-trump-defeat-clinton\">rural vote\u003c/a> in the Electoral College played a key role in the surprise election of Donald Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Electoral College is weighted disproportionately to rural, now mostly red states like Idaho. So if you're a conservative and you move up to Idaho from California, your vote has nearly twice as much impact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is not lost on people like C.J. Buck, who picked up and moved his entire business — Buck Knives — from Southern California a few years back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Buck says his family manufacturing business — they make hunting knives mostly — decided to leave the Golden State because business costs (primarily taxes and workers' comp premiums) were getting too high. And they didn't have to be there, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In Southern California, businesses are almost treated as necessary evils,\" Buck says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Buck entertained an enticing tax incentive package from Portland, Oregon, but they settled on Idaho.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'No question the white flight is to flee from a multiracial situation into one in which everybody looks the same.'\u003ccite>Mary Lou Reed, former Idaho state legislator\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\"We looked at Idaho as not having a major metropolitan area, [and] that would mean as a state we would stay truer to those rural understandings,\" Buck says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What he means is that there isn't a major city like Portland or Los Angeles that would swing Idaho's politics to the left. Especially when it comes to minimum wage increases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The beauty of Idaho is, you just never lose connection. It's the people who need the jobs who are the ones voting on the issues,\" Buck says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Business owners like Buck are hoping to rebuild a manufacturing economy in the region. Since the late 1980s, north Idaho has transitioned from a mostly natural resources-based economy to one that's much more dependent on services, like health care, real estate and tourism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The economy has changed enormously,\" says Mary Lou Reed, a Democrat, who represented Coeur d' Alene in the state legislature until 1994.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reed also moved here from California, albeit in 1956. She recalls how north Idaho was once the country's top silver producer and union Democrats once ruled up until the late 1980s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The lumber mills are all gone, the mines are shuttered down, we do not have labor unions that are active,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, Kootenai County doesn't have a single Democrat in an elected office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Reed, there's one thing that no one talks about, out in the open at least, with all these demographic changes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're very, very white up here,\" she says. Kootenai County is 95 percent white, according to the most recent census, compared with much of California today, where whites are in the minority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She insists race plays a factor in some people's decisions to move up here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No question the white flight is to flee from a multiracial situation into one in which everybody looks the same,\" she says. \"It's very dull.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is definitely an uncomfortable subject.

So if you're a conservative and you move up to Idaho from California, your vote has nearly twice as much impact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is not lost on people like C.J. Buck, who picked up and moved his entire business — Buck Knives — from Southern California a few years back.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Buck says his family manufacturing business — they make hunting knives mostly — decided to leave the Golden State because business costs (primarily taxes and workers' comp premiums) were getting too high. And they didn't have to be there, he says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In Southern California, businesses are almost treated as necessary evils,\" Buck says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Buck entertained an enticing tax incentive package from Portland, Oregon, but they settled on Idaho.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">'No question the white flight is to flee from a multiracial situation into one in which everybody looks the same.'\u003ccite>Mary Lou Reed, former Idaho state legislator\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>\"We looked at Idaho as not having a major metropolitan area, [and] that would mean as a state we would stay truer to those rural understandings,\" Buck says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What he means is that there isn't a major city like Portland or Los Angeles that would swing Idaho's politics to the left. Especially when it comes to minimum wage increases.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The beauty of Idaho is, you just never lose connection. It's the people who need the jobs who are the ones voting on the issues,\" Buck says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Business owners like Buck are hoping to rebuild a manufacturing economy in the region. Since the late 1980s, north Idaho has transitioned from a mostly natural resources-based economy to one that's much more dependent on services, like health care, real estate and tourism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The economy has changed enormously,\" says Mary Lou Reed, a Democrat, who represented Coeur d' Alene in the state legislature until 1994.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reed also moved here from California, albeit in 1956. She recalls how north Idaho was once the country's top silver producer and union Democrats once ruled up until the late 1980s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The lumber mills are all gone, the mines are shuttered down, we do not have labor unions that are active,\" she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, Kootenai County doesn't have a single Democrat in an elected office.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Reed, there's one thing that no one talks about, out in the open at least, with all these demographic changes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're very, very white up here,\" she says. Kootenai County is 95 percent white, according to the most recent census, compared with much of California today, where whites are in the minority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She insists race plays a factor in some people's decisions to move up here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"No question the white flight is to flee from a multiracial situation into one in which everybody looks the same,\" she says. \"It's very dull.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This is definitely an uncomfortable subject.

It’s also unclear whether the 75 percent statistic includes more minor crimes than the examples listed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The raids prompted an outcry from immigrant rights advocates, concerned about the scale and synchronization of the raids — which they described as unusual, despite ICE’s characterizations of the operations as “routine” — and by shifts in practice compared with previous ICE operations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For instance, last week’s ICE arrests included “collateral damage,” or people who were picked up despite not being targeted in the operations — for instance, because they were in the same place as a person who \u003cem>was \u003c/em>targeted, and did not have documentation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Individuals swept up in this way are presumably among the quarter of those arrested that Kelly did not identify as having a criminal conviction.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration activists had also expressed concern over what kinds of crimes could lead a person to be a target for deportation. Kelly’s statement notes that some of the people arrested had convictions for serious crimes such as homicide and sexual assault, but it’s not clear how many of the arrests were for those crimes and how many for crimes such as drunken driving.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/01/25/presidential-executive-order-enhancing-public-safety-interior-united\">executive order\u003c/a> on the deportation of “criminal aliens” allows a person to be targeted for deportation over \u003cem>any \u003c/em>crime. It’s unclear from Kelly’s statement whether any lower-level crimes, like immigration offenses, are included in the 75 percent tally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joseph Villela, the director of policy at the immigrant rights group CHIRLA, told NPR on Sunday night that his organization had reports of people being arrested in the raids who would not have been prioritized for deportation before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There were individuals that had, first, no criminal conviction — second, maybe a minor conviction — but third, some of them had a previous deportation order and that was what made them a priority,” he said. “This is a shift that reflected [President Trump’s] executive order.”‘\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villela said there was a lack of transparency from ICE officials about how many people were affected by the raids, and that at one point CHIRLA’s legal team received false information about a client’s whereabouts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He described a “deficit of trust” between advocacy groups and the enforcement agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Forgive us for not believing 100 percent of what [ICE] are saying when in the field … they were not forthcoming in regards to the real numbers of individuals that were affected,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While President Trump has characterized the raids as fulfilling a campaign pledge to deport “criminals” in the country illegally, immigration officials have maintained the series of actions were just business as usual — in some cases, saying the operations were planned months in advance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That discrepancy continued on Monday. During a joint news conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Trump praised Kelly and said the raids were fulfilling a campaign promise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Kelly characterized the raids as “consistent with the routine, targeted arrests carried out by ICE’s Fugitive Operations teams on a daily basis.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration has also said that in deporting people in the country illegally, the focus is on threats to “national security and public safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement from Kelly characterized recent arrests using slightly different terms. The 680 individuals arrested “pose a threat to public safety, border security or the integrity of our nation’s immigration system,” he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2017 NPR.

Kelly’s statement notes that some of the people arrested had convictions for serious crimes such as homicide and sexual assault, but it’s not clear how many of the arrests were for those crimes and how many for crimes such as drunken driving.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2017/01/25/presidential-executive-order-enhancing-public-safety-interior-united\">executive order\u003c/a> on the deportation of “criminal aliens” allows a person to be targeted for deportation over \u003cem>any \u003c/em>crime. It’s unclear from Kelly’s statement whether any lower-level crimes, like immigration offenses, are included in the 75 percent tally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Joseph Villela, the director of policy at the immigrant rights group CHIRLA, told NPR on Sunday night that his organization had reports of people being arrested in the raids who would not have been prioritized for deportation before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There were individuals that had, first, no criminal conviction — second, maybe a minor conviction — but third, some of them had a previous deportation order and that was what made them a priority,” he said. “This is a shift that reflected [President Trump’s] executive order.”‘\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Villela said there was a lack of transparency from ICE officials about how many people were affected by the raids, and that at one point CHIRLA’s legal team received false information about a client’s whereabouts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He described a “deficit of trust” between advocacy groups and the enforcement agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Forgive us for not believing 100 percent of what [ICE] are saying when in the field … they were not forthcoming in regards to the real numbers of individuals that were affected,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While President Trump has characterized the raids as fulfilling a campaign pledge to deport “criminals” in the country illegally, immigration officials have maintained the series of actions were just business as usual — in some cases, saying the operations were planned months in advance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That discrepancy continued on Monday. During a joint news conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Trump praised Kelly and said the raids were fulfilling a campaign promise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, Kelly characterized the raids as “consistent with the routine, targeted arrests carried out by ICE’s Fugitive Operations teams on a daily basis.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration has also said that in deporting people in the country illegally, the focus is on threats to “national security and public safety.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The statement from Kelly characterized recent arrests using slightly different terms. The 680 individuals arrested “pose a threat to public safety, border security or the integrity of our nation’s immigration system,” he wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">\u003cem>Copyright 2017 NPR.
