Harassment Claims Up During Napolitano Tenure at Homeland Security

ICE workers claiming retaliation have doubled and sexual harassment claims are also up

The number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement workers who claimed they faced retaliation from superiors has more than doubled since Janet Napolitano took over, according to data obtained by The Post.

The stats — which also show an increase in sexual-harassment claims — come as James Hayes, a senior law-enforcement official, moves ahead with a lawsuit charging he faced a "hostile work environment" in which male employees face discrimination under Napolitano, who oversees ICE as head of Homeland Security.
