Abstract
In this Resolution, recorded as File Number 18594, the Common Council of the City of Madison requests that the City of Madison Police Department continue its current practice of not entering into a Section 287(g) agreement with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and urges the Dane County Sheriff's Office to end its current practice of contacting ICE at booking time for all cases involving non-US citizens and to instead contact ICE only for non-US citizens who are being held on a possible felony charge.
