Butler County Sheriff Richard Jones has been appointed to the National Sheriff Association's Congressional Affairs Committee on Immigration.

Jones and about a dozen other sheriffs, mostly from border states, met last week with Homeland Security officials.

Jones already serves on two other National Sheriffs Association committees, the drug enforcement committee and the court security/prisoner transportation committee.

Jones has been outspoken on immigration issues and has even tried billing the government for housing illegal immigrants.
