Immigration Crackdown: Local jurisdictions find they can't opt out of federal immigration enforcement program
Local jurisdictions find they can't opt out of federal immigration enforcement program: "A senior ICE official... said, 'Secure Communities is not based on state or local cooperation in federal law enforcement. The program's foundation is information sharing between FBI and ICE. State and local law enforcement agencies are going to continue to fingerprint people and those fingerprints are forwarded to FBI for criminal checks. ICE will take immigration action appropriately.'" Sept. 30, 2010, Washington Post
