Members of Congress said a government immigration official told them that almost all undocumented immigrants are "fair game" for arrest and deportation.
Acting Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Director Thomas Homan met with 10 Democratic representatives Thursday on Capitol Hill.
Afterward, Rep. Joaquin Castro, a Democrat from Texas, said it was hard to leave the meeting and believe "the Trump administration is not going to target as many immigrants as possible."
Castro said the only exception was Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients - immigrants who came to the United States at a young age and have been protected under a program established by former President Barack Obama.
"The only hesitation they seem to have was whether they would go after DACA recipients. . Aside from that, everybody else is fair game for them," Castro said.
