As some Washington law enforcement leaders vow to help with mass deportations, immigration advocates prepare to resist
A Washington law that’s designed to protect immigrant rights could see new challenges as President-elect Donald Trump takes office. The state’s sanctuary law restricts how local law enforcement can aid federal immigration officials.
Yet some Washington state counties appear eager to help Trump fulfill his promise of mass deportations.
“I don’t care if this is a blue state, a sanctuary state… they have an obligation,” Klickitat County Sheriff Bob Songer said in a video uploaded to his department’s social media page on Dec. 11.
The “they” Songer is talking about are government agencies he thinks should fall in line with Trump’s deportation plans, which could target millions nationwide.

The state’s Keep Washington Working Act, passed in 2019, prohibits local law enforcement from asking people their immigration status or holding someone for immigration agents. The law, however, does allow local officers to work with federal immigration officials in certain instances, such as taking down a human or drug trafficking ring, or if a person lands in state prison.
Trump’s incoming administration has signaled it plans to start mass deportations with a focus on people who’ve committed crimes. But like Trump, Songer said he wouldn’t rule out targeting people who have illegally crossed the border or overstayed a visa. Those offenses can become a federal crime if done enough times.
A Department of Homeland Security report estimates 340,000 Washington residents are in the country without legal immigration status.
“This sheriff is not going to refuse to help ICE — we will be there with ICE to do the job,” Songer said in the video.
Days after Songer posted his video, the head of Washington’s Association of Sheriffs and Police Chiefs pushed back. Steve Strachan said the work of deportations is under the jurisdiction of the federal government — not local sheriffs.
“There is no direct federal authority… over local law enforcement. That is the unique and special nature of our system in America,” he later told KUOW’s Soundside.

Three other Washington counties have already been given a warning from the state Attorney General’s Office for violating the Keep Washington Working Act.
In the last four years, the AG has found Adams, Clark, and Grant counties have collectively worked with ICE more than a thousand times in potential violation of state law. In Adams and Grant counties, none of those interactions with ICE were connected to a criminal matter.
The Washington Immigrant Solidarity Network, an immigrant advocacy group, has also fielded concerns in other counties for similar activity, including Franklin, Lincoln, and Whatcom counties.
“We know that Keep Washington Working is not perfect, so we are trying to ensure that we’re out doing outreach in those specific counties,” said Yahaira Padilla, a deportation defense coordinator for the organization.
The immigration journey: How long does it take to feel like an American?
When someone gets arrested and detained, her job is to help connect them with bail or legal help. She hears stories about which counties are potentially violating the Keep Washington Working Act, she said.
If a local or state law enforcement officer begins asking about immigration status, people can invoke the right to remain silent, and can refuse to sign any documents until they speak with a lawyer, Padilla said.
She added that it’s important to set up a family plan in the event someone is arrested or detained, and part of that includes calling her organization’s hotline for help.
“I’m a mother, and that’s something that I never want to think about… creating a plan for the worst to come. But we have to make sure that we are prepared,” Padilla said.
As a survivor of family separation and DACA recipient she said, her ties to this work are deeply personal.
“My story, like so many of our communities, is woven into the broader fight for immigrant justice,” she said.
WASHINGTON COUNTY, Ohio (WTAP) – First responders are on the scene of a fire at a scrap yard in Washington County.
Not much information is known at this time, but what we do know is the fire is at Guernsey Scrap Recycling.
According to the Reno Volunteer Fire Department Fire Chief Jon Bradford, departments from Reno, Williamstown, Devola, Salem, Little Muskingum, and Marietta are on the scene. All of those departments are shuttling water to the scene.
The fire is contained in one area of the facility. Reno VFD is using the MOV Drone Works drone to help fight the fire. The owner of the scrap yard is in a crane helping to move items to assist firefighters.
It is not known what started the fire. And Chief Bradford says nobody was injured, and nobody is at risk.
WTAP has a reporter on the scene and will have more information as it becomes available.

The Washington Commanders have made many changes to go from a four-win team to three wins away from winning the Super Bowl, but none have been more impactful than drafting quarterback Jayden Daniels with the No. 2 overall pick.
Daniels may be a rookie, but he plays like an established veteran. That’s why Bleacher Report writer Maurice Moton believes that the Commanders will be competitive this weekend against the 15-2 Detroit Lions in the Divisional Round.
“The Commanders slowed down the Buccaneers’ third-ranked offense in a road victory last week, and Daniels helped position them to kick the game-winning field,” Moton writes.
“Head coach Dan Quinn and coordinator Joe Whitt have molded the team’s defense into a respectable unit throughout the season. In clutch moments, Daniels is far beyond his years.
“Washington won’t shut down the Lions offense, but along with Daniels, it can do enough to keep the score margin in the single digits.”
The Commanders are still underdogs since the Lions have arguably been the best team in the NFL this season, but Daniels won’t allow Washington to fold. He hasn’t done so yet, so there’s no reason why it would happen now.
Kickoff between the Commanders and Lions is scheduled for tomorrow at 8 p.m. ET.
