Immigration And Customs Enforcement

A bill that would create a new category of crime called “illegal entry” and give Idaho cops the power to enforce U.S, immigration law is moving forward.

The ACLU recently acquired documents revealing that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is actively considering locations to expand its detention capacity. Some of those locations include private prisons in the Mountain West.

The proposal would allow local law enforcement to ask the immigration status of individuals and prohibit agencies from directing employees not to disclose the immigration status of people in detention.

The program is called the State Criminal Alien Assistance Program, or SCAAP, and under it, states and counties can get reimbursed for some costs associated with holding onto undocumented people who have committed crimes.

New research shows U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement hasn’t been following its own health protocols, possibly resulting in detention center deaths. ICE's own documents revealed that medical aid was slow, inadequate or completely lacking in some cases.
