Oregon Dems block effort to alert ICE before illegal immigrant murderers are released

Oregon Democrats unanimously vote down Republican effort requiring federal notification when illegal immigrants convicted of violent felonies are released from state prison.

This particular minority report would have directed state officials to notify federal authorities when an illegal immigrant convicted of a violent felony, such as murder, was about to be released. That would give ICE an opportunity to transfer the person to its custody without the kind of expansive resource deployment seen in some uncooperative blue cities.

The Oregon State Senate voted down the minority report for Senate Bill 1594, 18-12, along party lines, with one lawmaker excused, as Republicans warned of the tally’s public safety consequences. Charles covers media, politics and culture for Fox News Digital.
