The House Oversight Committee plans to subpoena Ken Cuccinelli and Matthew Albens, acting directors of USCIS and ICE, to investigate a controversial immigration policy that was briefly enforced by the Trump administration. This policy did not protect immigrants with serious medical issues from deportation. Although the policy was reversed, the committee continues its investigation. Both Cuccinelli and Albens have resisted testifying, sending other officials instead. Cuccinelli claims to have already addressed the committee's requests, but Chairman Elijah Cummings insists on further answers, particularly regarding the decision-making process and future handling of deferred action requests.
