Harford County Executive Cassilly Statement Opposing Implementation of Maryland Senate Bill 791

Harford County Executive Bob Cassilly today issued the following statement on yesterday’s last-minute passage of Maryland Senate Bill 791, prohibiting communication between local and federal law enforcement agencies.“Harford County has already suffered the loss of two innocent women brutally murdered by criminal illegal immigrants living in our midst. This state legislation attempts to prevent local law enforcement from communicating with federal immigration authorities about such criminals and puts more lives at risk in our community. As such, it amounts to an outrageous and unconstitutional gag order that is legally unsound. I support any effort by local law enforcement to communicate with federal law enforcement agencies despite this reckless law.”
