Hogan says Maryland police will ‘ignore’ new law prohibiting them from working with ICE
Larry Hogan said local law enforcement feel obligated to continue cooperating with ICE to detain violent noncitizen offenders despite Maryland's ban on new and existing ICE partnerships by July.
- On Thursday, Larry Hogan said 'All the local law enforcement are saying we're going to ignore that because we're required to work with them,' at the Politico Governor's Summit.
- The move follows laws in New Mexico and Maine, with Maryland joining California, Illinois and Washington, as Hogan said local law enforcement may not comply with the bill Moore signed.
- Pointing to public-safety concerns, Hogan said, 'When they have violent criminals that they're holding in jail that ICE wants to be detained, they shouldn't be let back on the streets,' and criticized Minnesota officials' response to ICE enforcement.
- After signing the emergency bill, Maryland Governor responded by saying they will still coordinate with ICE on lawful removal of noncitizen offenders, despite the ban.
- Larry Hogan, a Republican U.S. Senate nominee and former Maryland Governor, said if elected he would work in the U.S. Senate to continue support for Ukraine's defense against Russia.
