The bill is a memorial from the Florida House of Representatives urging the Secretary of Homeland Security to provide guidance and training opportunities for 287(g) agreements, which allow state and local law enforcement agencies to assist in immigration enforcement. It references President Trump's Executive Order 14159, which directed the Secretary to collaborate with these agencies to enhance their role in investigating, apprehending, and detaining illegal aliens. The memorial highlights Florida's commitment to combating illegal immigration and its readiness to support law enforcement through its training facilities, particularly the Camp Blanding Joint Training Center.
The resolution calls for the Secretary of Homeland Security to ensure effective cooperation and coordination with 287(g) agreements, thereby maximizing the impact of state and local law enforcement in addressing illegal immigration. Additionally, it directs the Secretary of State to send copies of the memorial to key federal officials, including the President and members of Congress, to emphasize Florida's position and readiness to assist in federal immigration enforcement efforts.
