Mass deportations will depend on local police. Only some are offering to help

Mass deportations will depend on local police. "We are going to cross-designate and embed Nassau County police detectives with ICE," county executive Bruce Blakeman said. The Nassau County move appears to be an expansion of a long-standing ICE program known as 287, which enlists local law enforcement to help with immigration enforcement. "Our partnership sends a clear message that ICE and Nassau County stand committed to prioritizing the safety of the public," says Brian Flanagan, acting deputy field office director for ICE in New York City. Sponsor Message "Nassau County will enable ICE to house and transfer potentially dangerous alien offenders in a safe and secure environment," Flanagan said.
