“Chief Jim Clark knows there are a lot of questions about his proposal to add immigration to the Ottumwa Police Department’s list of responsibilities. But he thinks the benefits outweigh the concerns.

Clark wants the city to sign on with a federal program that allows local officers to initiate deportation proceedings against people who are in the country illegally. He said the program adds a new tool for removing violent criminals from Ottumwa.”
