Correct, Correct. That's not a state issue. You're 100% correct. From a national standpoint. I mean, there's not much we can do because they are a federally based program. We could tell [ICE] not to come into Wisconsin like Illinois and Minnesota did. But I would instruct the attorney General to keep an eye on ICE in the things that they're doing around the counties of Wisconsin. (48:52–48:57)

CLAIM

Asserts that Wisconsin could instruct ICE not to operate in the state, similar to actions taken by Illinois and Minnesota.
