Posts - Bill - HR 756 287(g) Program Protection Act

house 01/28/2025 - 119th Congress

We propose clarifying and strengthening the agreements under the 287(g) Program to enable state and local law enforcement to assist with immigration enforcement in a more efficient and transparent manner. Our goal is to ensure these collaborations align with local needs while maintaining federal oversight and compliance with uniform training standards. This legislation seeks to facilitate cooperation, enhance accountability, and bolster the capabilities of local agencies in managing immigration-related responsibilities.

With this bill, we're just fast-laning federal red tape onto local streets.

Finally, a bill that lets local heroes enforce the law without federal foot-dragging!

Why wait for Washington when local officers can start securing the border today?

Why not just let each state set its own immigration laws while we're at it?

Let the states lead where the feds have floundered—the 287(g) fixes what D.C. won't.

Why delegate immigration duties to local cops when ICE can't even get it right?

moderate 01/28/2025

There's delegation, and then there's dodging responsibility—this feels like the latter.
