The bill establishes the Developing Effective Policies on Orderly Removal and Transportation (DEPORT) task force in Michigan, which is tasked with making recommendations to the legislature regarding policies to facilitate the deportation of illegal immigrants. The task force will consist of various appointed members, including law enforcement officials, county commissioners, and individuals with expertise in combating drug and human trafficking. The Speaker of the House of Representatives is responsible for appointing the members and can remove them as necessary. The task force is required to provide preliminary and final reports to the legislature on its recommendations within specified timeframes.
Additionally, the task force is granted the authority to request legal assistance, accept funds or resources, and receive necessary support from state departments in carrying out its duties. Importantly, any writings or documents produced by the task force are exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act. The task force will be dissolved one year after its members are appointed, ensuring a limited duration for its operations.
