Illegal Immigrants In Utah Closer To Deportation?

“A Utah legislative committee passed a new bill on Wednesday which would give local police officers the authority to crack down on illegal immigrants and get them deported — something they cannot legally do now.

For example, if a police officer stops an immigrant on a traffic violation, the officer could legally detain that person and perhaps get them deported.”
