HOWARD COUNTY, MD — Residents are able to report the activities of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers that they see in Howard County.
Information can be submitted anonymously using the ICE Reporting Form. Whoever submits the report will be asked to provide the date, approximate time and location of an incident involving ICE, and other details.
Information submitted on the form may be shared and is considered public information under the Maryland Public Information Act, officials said.
"In Howard County, we believe every resident, regardless of immigration status, deserves to be treated with respect," said Howard County Executive Calvin Ball. "Unfortunately, we have seen horrific incidents unfold between ICE agents and members of the public. Like any other federal agency who conducts business in Howard County, we want to make sure any actions are lawful."
