In this video, we break down the growing controversy surrounding French tech giant Capgemini and its U.S. subsidiary’s contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, known as ICE.
French lawmakers are demanding answers after reports revealed that Capgemini Government Solutions agreed to provide “skip tracing” services used to locate migrants targeted for enforcement and deportation.
- The contract includes a base value of about 4.8 million dollars, with performance bonuses that could rise as high as 365 million dollars.
- Capgemini says the contract has not been executed and is currently under legal appeal.
However, the revelations triggered political pressure in France, public criticism in the United States, and renewed debate over the role of private technology companies in immigration enforcement.
As ICE faces protests and scrutiny over aggressive enforcement tactics, this case highlights growing international attention on U.S. immigration policy and the reputational risks global corporations face when working on sensitive government contracts.
- This video explains the facts, the timeline, and why this story matters to American viewers.
