The bill would require law enforcement agencies across the state to comply with detainer requests from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement...
...After the House vote, Speaker Tim Moore’s office published a news release that included quotes from Rep. Destin Hall, a Caldwell County Republican.
“These sanctuary sheriffs are simply putting partisan politics ahead of public safety,” Hall said.

AG directs sheriffs, chiefs to enforce gun law
The legislation, which takes effect this summer, emerged as one of the most fiercely debated proposals of the 2019 session, with sheriffs and their deputies turning out in force to testify against it. Some said they simply wouldn’t enforce it even if it became law.
But Balderas, a Democrat, sent a letter to every law enforcement agency in the state Thursday, warning them of a legal obligation to uphold the requirements outlined in Senate Bill 8, regardless of whether they agree with the legislation.
“As law enforcement officials,” Balderas said, “we do not have the freedom to pick and choose which state laws we enforce.”
One wonders what some of those that replied to the following threads might have to say about this

Stephen Moore: legal file on Trump Fed pick sealed after contempt revelations
Source: The Guardian
Legal filings detailing how Stephen Moore, Donald Trump’s pick for a Federal Reserve board seat, was found in contempt of court have been hidden from the public following a report by the Guardian.
The entire file on Moore’s divorce was sealed by a court order on Monday in response to a request from Moore’s ex-wife, according to a clerk at Fairfax county circuit court in Virginia. CNBC first reported the file had been sealed.
Trump Fed pick was held in contempt for failing to pay ex-wife over $300,000
The Guardian disclosed on Saturday that Moore was found in contempt of court in November 2012 for failing to pay his ex-wife more than $300,000 in alimony, child support and debts from their 2011 divorce settlement.
Documents from the file were copied by a Guardian reporter last week at the courthouse before the request to seal was made. The Guardian made the documents public on Monday.
