federal law enforcement agencies

Federal law enforcement agencies are specialized government organizations responsible for enforcing laws across the entire United States. They investigate crimes such as terrorism, cybercrime, drug trafficking, and organized crime that cross state or national borders. Examples include the FBI, which handles national security and major criminal cases; the DEA, focused on drugs; and ICE, which deals with immigration enforcement. These agencies work under federal jurisdiction and often collaborate with state and local law enforcement to maintain national safety and uphold federal laws.
