Thread: 287g template bill for states

There is a state legislator that may be interested in writing 287g legislation. Anyone know where I might find some kind of a 287g template bill for states.

This could be anything from mandatory to state grants to lea's

Thanks

Here you go, jrhino.

287(g) Participants

In 2002, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), entered into the first agreement under Section 287(g). Thirty-five law enforcement officers, consisting of FDLE agents and state and local officers, participated in the training program. After completion of the training program, they were assigned to seven Regional Domestic Security Task Force locations throughout Florida.

In November 2003, ICE and the Alabama Department of Public Safety (ALDPS) signed an MOA to provide immigration authority to 21 Alabama state troopers. These state troopers also received extensive training in immigration and nationality law and procedures and now have the authority to determine whether or not an individual is an illegal alien and can be removed from the U.S. in addition to their normal duties.

In November, 2005, the Arizona Department of Corrections (ADC) began processing alien inmates at their Intake Center as part of the 287(G) program. By processing aliens who met the criteria for early release and turning them over to ICE for removal, the ADC has realized a cost savings of $2,985,655 and a savings of 53,135 bed days.

For more information on Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act, please visit the FAQ page or you may request an information packet via the Section 287g form.

Thanks tiny

They are no longer offering info at that link. I am looking for the kind of language a state legislator could use in a bill. After last night Im thinking of just sending an outline of some things that might be relevant. They probably have someone to draft the bill.

I just want to make it as easy as possible for them to follow through and make sure the language is something that makes it easy, affordable and effective for local lea's
