"It is amazing that we have to have a bill like this," said NCGOP spokesperson Matt Mercer. "It seems to be common sense that law enforcement should cooperate with one another."

HB10, if passed, would require local sheriffs to cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) if and when they arrest someone and determine they are living in the United States unlawfully.

"While some on the left including Attorney General Josh Stein and a few Democratic sheriffs pretend sanctuary policies aren't real, this bill is a common sense step to ensure our streets remain safe," added Mercer.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
