A mix of state and local measures gives Colorado its “sanctuary” status.

Some sheriffs are pushing for closer cooperation between local law enforcement and federal immigration authorities.

Colorado shows how a national patchwork of immigration-related policies, outlining what law enforcement can and cannot do, “becomes less about a red state, blue state and more about where you live locally”.

Teller County , Colorado , has been trying to get its staff to work more closely with ICE .

Sheriffs like Mr. Mikesell say that “sanctuary’s policies harm immigrants by releasing criminal immigrants back into their own communities.

ICE has said that within Colorado it's targeting Tren de Aragua , which the Trump administration has designated as a foreign terrorist organization.

The White House wants to make it easier to partner on immigration enforcement.

“If we have criminals, I don’t care if you’re a migrant or you’re an American citizen,” he says. “We’re going to be transparent with the public.”.
