Senate Considers Bill To Allow Police To Ignore Federal Immigration Requests

There's legislation in Annapolis that would allow local police departments to ignore orders from federal immigration officials to detain illegal immigrants, who are charged with non-violent offenses.

The bill, sponsored by Prince George's County Democratic Senator Victor Ramirez would prohibit judges in Maryland from denying bail to defendants who federal officials believe are in the U.S. illegally.

Ramirez says that judges could still deny bail, if it is determined the defendant is a threat to the community.

Ramirez says the measure goes "hand in hand" with the federal "Secure Communities" where violent offenders were held in local jails, if their immigration status was questioned by federal officials.

This is just another case of Democrats lawlessness. But now they want to make a law that makes it law to ignore the LAW!
Welcome to the Democrat fundamental Transformation to Communism lead by the Communist agitator Obama! I hope someone eliminates that anti-American soon.
