Wyoming Governor: ‘Doesn't Make Sense' to Release Illegal Immigrants from County Jails

[PJ] WASHINGTON ‐ Wyoming Republican Gov. Matt Mead told PJM that local prisons should not release undocumented immigrants who serve time for committing a crime before Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) can take them into custody for entering the U.S. illegally.

Some local jurisdictions such as Fairfax County have terminated their Intergovernmental Service Agreement (IGSA) with ICE so they do not have to hold known undocumented individuals in prison past their release date for local crimes.

In January, Acting ICE Director Thomas Homan announced housing agreements with sheriffs from certain counties that "allow local law enforcement to detain people living in the country illegally who are in jail on criminal offenses for up to 48 hours past their scheduled release," according to press reports.

Mead said local officials should wait until federal authorities are able to take undocumented persons into custody after they serve their sentence for committing crimes inside the United States.

#1 Only makes sense in California because there are so many of them that we don't have room for our own criminals.
