The state of Florida is set to have the feds deputize a number of it's state correctional officers as ICE agents. This status, along with the accompanying special training, will allow them to process illegal alien guests of the state prison system.
Except for the final memorandum the program, known as 287 (g), is all set to go.
The Governor and the Secretary of Corrections both think this is a great idea. Many in the legislature do not.
Three other states have gone thru this procedure. The training is a live-in four week operation, undertaken at state expense. A total of 14 Florida jails already participate in the program.
