ICE
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is a federal law enforcement agency founded on March 1st, 2003 under President George W. Bush. It operates under the aegis of the Department of Homeland Security to enforce immigration and customs laws, dealing with cross-border crime and illegal immigration. Its two primary components are Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) and Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). Contrary to popular belief, ICE does not patrol American borders; rather, that role is performed by the US Border Patrol.
