By: policeone.com
MIAMI — Major city police chiefs want to meet with the Department of Homeland Security to get clarity on how officials plan to handle the relocation of immigrants in their cities.
According to The Washington Post, the Major Cities Chiefs Association wants a voice in the federal policymaking process.
Led by Houston police Chief Art Acevedo, the MCCA is seeking to learn how DHS will handle “sanctuary city” status declared by local governments. Acevedo has openly opposed a Texas law banning sanctuary cities.
