Republican officials in several states have taken immigration enforcement into their own hands since President Joe Biden took office, arguing that the federal government is not adequately addressing migrant arrivals at the U.S.-Mexico border. These efforts often duplicate federal enforcement measures and rack up bills for taxpayers with little or no public safety payoff.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis recently signed legislation requiring every Florida law enforcement agency that operates a county jail to enter into an agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) under Section 287(g) of the Immigration and Nationality Act. These agreements deputize state or local cops to enforce certain aspects of federal immigration law. The new Florida law seems largely redundant, since Border Patrol agents already have jurisdiction throughout the state and 46 of its 67 counties already have 287(g) agreements.

They get to share in the impact of their policies.
They don’t have to be a border state to be impacted by the effects of an illegal invasion. We all are in every state.
Are the Libertarians going back to their no border roots?
So, Martha’s Vineyard should shut up?
Every state is affected by the trespassers.
Hey Pay attention moron! This is being done because the feds will NOT do their job.
DeSantis showed Americans what the white liberal elitists REALLY think about little brown illegal immigrants. They don’t want those illegals in their states. That is why loud mouths like Gruesome Newsom and those Massachushits shysters are going after Abbott and DeSantis. They’ve been embarrassed. America know understands that the liberals love immigrants as long as they aren’t living in their states. Two faced biotches.
“So, Martha’s Vineyard should shut up?”
DeSantis should send another 10 plane loads and toss in 20 bus loads just for ***** and grins. Their heads would explode.

NOTE TO BIDEN & COHORTS:
IF YOU WILL NOT PROTECT ME——
THEN I WILL....
If Kari Lake becomes Governor she will declare an invasion and have Arizona unilaterally send them back. Liz Cheney has come out and opposed Kari Lake. I wonder how many more people will vote for Lake because of that
I call REASON MAGAZINE, UNREASONABLE MAGAZINE. It is a LIBERTARIAN MAGAZINE, and they love open borders.
Outside the Trump era, about 15 or so years ago I realized the government never had any intention of securing our border. We got lies, lip service, and deceit for many decades, and to this day.
I’m confident some of those in D.C. are taking bribes, in one form or another, from the Cartel$ to make damn sure the border remains wide open.
Yes, almost as much as they love weed.
Rich … considering the open borders/NWO destruction the NON BORDER blue states have ushered in, to this country.
Not all libertarians do, or even most. The ones funded by the left and neocons are
“I’m confident some of those in D.C. are taking bribes, in one form or another, from the Cartel$ to make damn sure the border remains wide open.”
They don’t need cartel money. They get plenty from (1) D’s who think they are getting voters and (2) Chamber of Commerce Republicans who want cheap labor.
That’s been the open borders coalition in the US for decades and congress critters and presidents who will prevent border security have been extremely well funded by them.
If the corrupt Mexican officials are taking bribes, you can bet the rent the super corrupt “Officials” in the U.S. are in on it.
