Senate confirms ICE chief Meyers
The U.S. Senate confirmed Julie Meyers as assistant secretary for Immigration and Customs and Enforcement at the Department of Homeland Security before recessing for the holidays.
Meyers has led the agency for the past two years under recess appointments from President Bush that used parliamentary rules to fill the vacant spot while the Senate was in recess. At the time some senators raised concerns about her lack of experience on immigration matters.
