Snyder to promote Michigan as welcoming immigrants in face of executive action

 

Governor Rick Snyder isn't completely on board with President Trump's executive action on immigration.

 

Trump's action instructs the Homeland Security secretary to engage with governors and local officials about agreements under which local law enforcement officials could investigate, apprehend and detain people in the country illegally.

 

However, Snyder says he doesn’t view immigration enforcement as one of the “primary” functions for state and local police and that he will “continue to promote Michigan as a welcoming place for immigrants.”
