White House border czar Tom Homan on Sunday pushed back on the idea of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arresting parents at bus stops in Connecticut, as alleged by Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) this week.
"I pointed out, the last two years, no one can point to one single incidence we arrested anybody in elementary school. We haven't arrested anybody in the hospital. We haven't arrested anybody in the church. ICE is real good at their job," Homan told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union.”

I think they’re going to be kind of stabilized for quite a while because we’re not getting out of this Iran thing anytime soon, unfortunately. And it’s a bigger issue for places like Asia and Europe.”
