MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT WITH IMMIGRATION AND CUSTOMS ENFORCEMENT – Adds to existing law to establish provisions regarding law enforcement entering into a memorandum of agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
This Idaho bill requires all local police departments and sheriff's offices to apply for a federal program (Section 287(g)) that allows them to assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) with immigration enforcement. If an agency cannot secure this agreement, it must publicly state its reasons and efforts to cooperate with ICE. The law standardizes formal cooperation with federal immigration enforcement but does not alter immigration policy or create new enforcement powers.
