back to article States that aren't nice to ICE still sharing key database full of personal info

Democratic lawmakers say some states that don't want to assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) may be unintentionally allowing the agency access to residents' driver and criminal records through a law-enforcement data network. A group of 40 congressional Democrats, led by Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Representative …

    hamper law enforcement efforts,

    But once ICE has deported all these criminals there won't be a need for any law enforcement efforts

      "illegal migrants...put on welfare and vote Democrat."

      Is the ability to register for welfare and to vote so poorly managed that even illegals can do both of those things? That sounds like a much, much bigger problem than illegal migrants even being there is the first place. It;s a recipe for fraud by anyone, including citizens and legal residents.

    Amusing

    An article about states wanting to help law breakers evade the law. Without pointing out the insanity of the states helping law breakers. What strange times we live in

      Is that why one left the EU country one was in, hmm ? Because local law enforcement came knocking?

      (Which EU country were you illegally working in again?)

        Nope, I am a fan of legal immigration. My travels were entirely legal. Does that confuse you?

          Were you not residing in an EU country, without declaring a means of support, post Brexit? Tut tut. Lucky not to have gotten thrown out as an illegal immigrant. Happens a lot to us Brits now.

            I was in an EU country. I was working. It was post brexit. What is your problem?

            "Lucky not to have gotten thrown out as an illegal immigrant. Happens a lot to us Brits now."

            You were thrown out as an illegal immigrant? You really shouldnt break the law.

              Working without a visa or work permit? So a proper illegal immigrant then.

              A bombshell given your stance on ICE deportations, hmm?

                Aint you the moron who follows me around crying because I was invited to get the paperwork to remain after brexit? I am guessing you are one of those who 'came' into the EU illegally and trying to justify your criminal behaviour?

                "A bombshell given your stance on ICE deportations, hmm?"

                Or more likely you are hard of thinking. Still not worked out how to post with an account?

                  You had no work permit, so clearly an illegal. Rank hypocrisy on your part. Which EU country was this?

                  And looks like you're a big Brexit fan too? Couldn't make it up !!!

                    Again I can only assume you illegally entered the EU from outside as you wrongly assume I was illegal in the EU or violating the laws. May you be deported swiftly.

                    "And looks like you're a big Brexit fan too? Couldn't make it up !!!"

                    Very much a brexit fan. Unlike you I dont need to make stuff up.

                      Working in an EU country, post Brexit, without a visa or work permit is illegal for UK citizens. Which country was it? Come, come. Out with it
