I thought I read that ICE has an exception to operate and be paid.
Nope, “ICE agents also go without pay.” (arc). The exception ICE gets is that they have to keep working while they’re not being paid.
Okay, thanks. So officially no pay. That’s good. Though my tinfoil hat is telling me billionaire funds might float their way to keep the onslaught uninterrupted.
The people that cut those checks get furloughed as well.
However, this admin doesn’t give a shit about legality & ICE quite obviously doesn’t either so they will likely be paying them under the table.
Yes, my thoughts as well.
