Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (N.Y.) said she would consider getting rid of the Department of Homeland Security, which includes Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection.

In an interview with The New Yorker released Wednesday, the congresswoman was asked about her previous calls to abolish ICE, which is a DHS agency that enforces federal immigration laws inside the country, including deportation and detention of undocumented immigrants.

Ocasio-Cortez criticized the “core structure of ICE… and frankly, the entire Department of Homeland Security,” saying their roles were “extrajudicial” and “lack effective oversight.” She noted that DHS was formed in 2002 and ICE in 2003 under the George W. Bush administration after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

“Would you get rid of Homeland Security?” the interviewer asked.

“I think so. I think so,” Ocasio-Cortez responded, adding that the country needs to “undo a lot of the egregious mistakes” from the Bush administration. “I feel like it is a very qualified and supported position... in terms of being able to make the argument that we never should have created DHS.”

Ocasio-Cortez doubled down on her suggestion to get rid of DHS later on Wednesday, tweeting that it’s “really not that radical” and that discussing reorganizing the department “shouldn’t be out of the question.”

The congresswoman also told The New Yorker that DHS had been ignoring congressional requests for documents on migrant children who had been separated from their parents at the border under the Trump administration’s hardline immigration policies, as well as on conditions in U.S. immigrant detention facilities.

“They have been completely noncompliant,” Ocasio-Cortez said of DHS. “They won’t give us a shred of paper that helps us find these kids.”

DHS told HuffPost on Thursday that it has been complying with the subpoena the House oversight committee issued in February.

Homeland Security, with over 200,000 employees, has a mission of “preventing terrorism; securing our borders; enforcing immigration laws; securing cyberspace; and ensuring disaster response and resilience.” It is unclear which, if any, functions Ocasio-Cortez would want to maintain or re-allocate to other agencies. HuffPost reached out to Ocasio-Cortez but did not immediately receive a response.
