287G not coming to Ottumwa

(OTTUMWA) Opponents of the controversial 287 G program have a reason to celebrate tonight.

The program that would have allowed local police to start the process of deporting an undocumented person arrested for a violent crime will not be coming to Ottumwa.

KTVO has learned that the U.S. Immigration and Custom Enforcement agency or "ICE" can only fund three communities nationwide for that program and the City of Bridges will not be one of them.

You may recall earlier this year when police chief Jim Clark proposed the program to the city council he met with widespread opposition from the community.

Wednesday he says he's frustrated with lawmakers in Washington.

"That's poor planning on the part of Congress that's poor effort on their part to fund this program," said Clark.

Ottumwa was not the only Iowa community turned down by ICE.

Marshalltown, Iowa also applied and was denied.

Well we can see this 287g program is going to get our laws enforced. This is all a load of crap they are doing nothing to get serious about this and yet they keep coming up with all these amnesty bills.

This needs to be investigated.

I am confused. Our Local Sheriff said several weeks ago that this program was ended. Then it changed to suspended, on hold, they ran out of money. We seem to hit a road block every time we get up and running. The programs and the laws that are available to enforce are just being swept aside or full of excuses by the so called lawmakers.

Psalm 91

When we didn't back down and scream and cry for all the seperated families because of the raids, the dictator pulled the program.

I'm calling my Congressman right now and asking him why this is bottle necked. There is an obvious demand for this program and it should be expanded.

Rutherford Country, Tn., adjacent to Davidson Cty. (Nashville) just began enforcing the 287g program and I believe two more adjacent counties are up for training. Something is wrong with this report.

Anything, anyone finds out I would be deeply grateful if you report it. Waukegan applied last month. We were told we'd have to wait two years. I never even considered that we might be turned down, or the program would be defunct.

After all the hard work to get this going -heartbreaking...

Three? This is a sick joke. Someone please arrest these people or pull the funding on Homeland Security. We did a better job with immigration laws before they were formed!
