Explanation:

A clause contains a subject and a verb. The bold - part "that handles numerous responsibilities, including the apprehension and transportation of federal fugitives" has a subject "that" (referring to the agency) and a verb "handles". A phrase does not have both a subject and a verb. So it is a clause.

Answer:

clause
