SB15 criminalizes the failure of local officials – including sheriffs and other law enforcement officers – to cooperate with federal immigration agencies, with penalties of up to 10 years in prison.

Up to 10 years in prison if you refuse to blindly follow orders? Seems reasonable /s

It also criminalizes acts by everyday Louisiana residents deemed to obstruct or “thwart” federal immigration enforcement efforts. It passed 71-30.

"Thwart" immigration efforts seems like it could be very loosely interpreted to mean anything from intentionally or even unintentionally obstructing or delaying efforts, peacefully protesting or expressing dissent, potentially interpreted to punish immigration lawyers for doing their job.

Also, just pointing out the city of New Orleans was already on that DHS list of jurisdictions in violation of Trump's sanctuary policy

Feels like it would have been less passive aggressive to just @ the city within the actual text of the bill.

“The Orleans Parish Sheriff, who should be trying to get out from under the handcuffs of the consent decree, [is] using that as a shield to avoid the possible implications of refusing to cooperate with ICE,” Morris told committee members.

Also, love this argument (especially as we're watching riots in L.A. and the city of Glendale canceling it's own contract with ICE) bc it essentially seems to be saying take off those old handcuffs, and put on these new much more restrictive handcuffs.

State Level DOGE Inspired Task Forces Watchlist

As of 2025 state and county level task forces begun popping up across the United States. While some have picked less conspicuous official names such as “Red Tape Relief Project” and “Fiscal Responsibility Program,” all were announced as “DOGE-inspired.”

There is 100% a reason a gigantic shadow network of wealthy individuals linked to the heritage foundation is quietly pushing policies at state levels across the country while hiding behind claims of small government and transparency.

By the time the federal government completely collapses they will have everything in place to start over with their new network of support built and ready to go: New laws, new military forces, a new secret police (DOGE task forces), and a new America created to protect the interests of the wealthiest individuals and corporations on the planet. This has been in the works for decades, and even if we can't stop them, we should not be quiet about this, and we should definitely not be making things any easier on them. When you see something, make some noise and help me call this shit out!

Current list of state task forces that are constantly growing:

•Florida

•Georgia

•Iowa

•Kansas

•Kentucky

•Louisiana (Fiscal Responsibility Program)

•Missouri

•Montana (Red Tape Relief Project)

•New Hampshire

•North Carolina

•North Dakota

•Oklahoma

•South Carolina

•Tennessee (State level and at least one county level in Hamilton County)

•Texas

•Wisconsin

This is a place to report or discuss any news related to these groups or for news and discussion of any corruption going on at smaller levels. Even outside of the United States. If you have an example of smaller level corruption that needs to be called out, drop it here.
