Tom Perez: ‘Bad Public Policy’ for States To Work with ICE

‘A person who is victim of sexual assault doesn’t report it, the victim of human trafficking doesn’t report it’

RUSH EXCERPT:
PEREZ: "I sued a guy, the former sheriff of Maricopa County, these are the words of his police officers, he built a wall of distrust between the police and the community. The most important currency that a police officer has is trust from the community. When you allow this to happen, you undermine trust. Then a person who is victim of sexual assault doesn’t report it, the victim of human trafficking doesn’t report it. That’s why it’s bad public policy."
