A bill in the Oregon House put forward by The Dalles Republican Daniel Bonham and Hood River Democrat Anna Williams would have the Northern Oregon Regional Correctional Facility give up its contract with Immigration and Customs Enforcement to hold long-term immigration detainees if the state provides $1.6 million for the next two years to make up for the loss of funds from the contract.  The pair have different reasons for backing the bill, with Williams believing the acceptance of ICE detainees violates Oregon’s sanctuary state policy.  Bonham does not believe in the sanctuary state designation, but he says the jail is not designed for long-term holds and there would be a need to fill NORCOR’s funding hole if the contract goes away.  Bonham does say concerns from in Salem about setting a precedent for providing funding for county jails makes it unlikely the bill can go anywhere.  Bonham added the bill would not release the detainees, but instead simply not allow ICE to use NORCOR for its overflow population.  A judge last year ruled NORCOR does not violate the sanctuary state policy, because NORCOR resources aren’t being used to detect or arrest people.
