DHS uses taxpayer money to fund Texas billboards countering immigration enforcement efforts
Fox News
The Department of Homeland Security Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman erected billboards in Texas offering assistance to illegal immigrants in custody.
The ads are part of a campaign by the DHS’s Office of the Immigration Detention Ombudsman (IDO), an independent office within DHS that assists individuals with complaints about potential violation of immigration detention standards or other misconduct by personnel. The office also provides oversight of immigration detention facilities. Bill Melugin currently serves as a Los Angeles based correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC). He joined the network in May 2021.
Congress established the office in 2019, and currently, Michelle Brané serves as the IDO at DHS.
