Daily Caller: A Department of Justice community policing grant program calls for local law enforcement to enforce federal immigration law.
Attorney General Jeff Sessions wrote in a memo last week that the DOJ will work to tailor grants in order to “promote a lawful system of immigration.”
The Community Policing Development (CPD) program gives recipients funds to work with local law enforcement agencies. The fiscal year 2017 grant will give up to $11 million to government agencies and non-government agencies to “significantly advance the field of community policing.” Up to $900,000 of these funds will go towards “cooperative partnerships with federal law enforcement to combat illegal immigration.”
If you drag Federal OPM through a local government, you never know what you’ll find.
…“significantly advance the field of community policing.”…
The famous two edged sword. . . .
The Feds need to make sure they measure results.
Sad but true, the Federal Government has a very poor track record of following up on the grants that they issue!
