AMERICA FIRST ACT 

STATE LAWMAKERS ARE LOOKING AT PROPOSED LEGISLATION AIMED AT TACKLING ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. 
THE "AMERICA FIRST ACT" WAS REINTRODUCED THIS WEEK AFTER IT FAILED TO GET PASSED LAST YEAR. IT WOULD FORCE STATE LAW ENFORCEMENT TO COMPLY WITH FEDERAL AGENTS WHEN IT COMES TO DETAINING IMMIGRANTS WHO ARE IN THE U-S ILLEGALLY. AND IT CRIMINALIZES UNLAWFUL PRESENCE AS A FELONY. UNDER THIS BILL THOSE DETAINED BY ICE WOULD GET A 72-HOUR WINDOW TO LEAVE OHIO ONCE THEY'RE RELEASED AND A 90-DAY WINDOW FOR THOSE SEEKING ASYLUM OR THOSE WHO NEED VISA EXTENSIONS.
