DOJ Announces $25 Mln To Protect Americans From Illegal Immigrants' Attack
The program will help local agencies locate, apprehend and investigate criminal aliens, with awards supporting Homeland Security Task Force activities and other DOJ efforts.
- On Thursday, the Justice Department announced the $25 million 'Assisting Neighborhoods and Governments with Enforcement of Laws' Grant Program to support local law enforcement agencies in immigration enforcement operations.
- Authorized by the BIDEN Reimbursement Fund, the program provides resources to help agencies locate and prosecute 'criminal illegal aliens' while disrupting gang, drug, and human trafficking crimes.
- Officials expect to award about 50 grants of up to $500,000 each, with grant periods spanning 36 to 60 months beginning December 1, 2026, requiring applicants to secure Homeland Security Task Force support.
- Associate Attorney General Stanley E. Woodward, Jr. stated the funding counters 'dangerous sanctuary policies,' though Washington State officials dispute that state law hinders investigations into murders and trafficking.
- The 2019 Keep Washington Working Act restricts local law enforcement participation in federal immigration enforcement, creating potential friction for jurisdictions balancing federal grant eligibility with state legal compliance.
