Stop working with ICE! When law enforcement collaborates with ICE, and the Trump administration’s growing deportation agenda, trust between the police and the community is jeopardized, threatening public safety for all residents of Maryland. ICE, emboldened by the Trump administration’s growing deportation agenda, has drastically increased their prioritization of targeting and deporting immigrants. Through limiting our states cooperation and partnership with national efforts to enforce immigration law, the Maryland Trust Act would increase the safety of Marylanders by improving relationships with law enforcement and other state entities.
This bill will:
Declares that Maryland will NOT support the targeting of immigrants, Muslims, and others.
Restore community trust in our law enforcement officials.
Improve public safety for all residents of the state
End police cooperation and partnership with ICE and other federal agencies
