ACLU of Hawai‘i wants to know what agreements county police departments have with feds for immigration enforcement
“At a time when immigration arrests are spiking in Hawaiʻi, we’re demanding clarity on whether our police departments are helping carry out raids that instill fear in immigrant communities and whether they are doing so in ways that flout legal safeguards,” ACLU of Hawai‘i Legal Director Wookie Kim said, adding it is the duty of local governments to protect their residents, not act as an arm of federal immigration enforcement.
