NEW: Oklahoma partners with ICE to deport hundreds of illegal aliens currently serving prison sentences
Oklahoma has recently initiated a significant partnership with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to deport hundreds of illegal aliens who are currently serving prison sentences. This program, known as “Operation Guardian,” aims to expedite the deportation process for these individuals, saving the state a substantial amount of money in housing costs.
The state estimates it spends approximately $36,000 per day to house these convicts. By streamlining the deportation process, Oklahoma hopes to alleviate some of this financial burden. So far, about 60 illegal aliens have successfully gone through the deportation process under this initiative. This move not only helps reduce costs but also addresses broader concerns related to immigration and public safety.
The collaboration with ICE marks a significant step for Oklahoma, demonstrating the state’s commitment to enforcing immigration laws and managing its prison population more effectively. Advocates for the program argue that it allows the state to focus resources on individuals who are lawfully residing in the country and contributing positively to society.
Oklahoma’s partnership with ICE may serve as a model for other states grappling with similar issues. By prioritizing the deportation of individuals who are in the country illegally and committing crimes, states can potentially enhance community safety and reduce taxpayer burdens.
