Chuck Jenkins, Sheriff of Frederick County

On the Morning News Express, Bob Miller welcomed Chuck Jenkins, Sheriff of Frederick County, to get his reaction to yesterday’s vote in the Maryland General Assembly, where emergency legislation was passed to ban 287(g) agreements statewide. Sheriff Jenkins shared his concerns about the move, which would end existing partnerships in counties like Frederick, Cecil, and Harford, allowing local law enforcement to work with federal immigration authorities. He also addressed the arguments behind the legislation, including claims tied to civil rights and racial profiling, and why he believes the ban could have real consequences for public safety. It was a candid, timely discussion on a decision with major local impact. 🎧 Missed the conversation?
