Immigration Board to vote on county resolution Tuesday
Johnson County Iowa boards plan a 1 p.m work session and 5 30 p.m regular meeting to discuss Friese's immigration resolution. Officials want a clear stance that federal immigration enforcement is not the county's responsibility and invite Sheriff Lonny Pulkrabek to weigh in. The meeting follows remarks about ICE cooperation and emphasizes policy rather than directing other officials.
