Operation Guardian: Oklahoma Strikes Back Against Illegal Immigration
Submitted by MAGA
Posted 2 hours ago
Operation Guardian in Oklahoma has sent a strong message about the need for robust action against illegal immigration, as state officials announced the arrest of 120 illegal aliens during a major crackdown.
The enforcement operation, which took place along Interstate 40 near the Texas border, was spearheaded by Republican Governor Kevin Stitt in collaboration with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Dubbed an essential move to enhance public safety, Operation Guardian revealed alarming statistics regarding the dangers posed by undocumented individuals. Authorities reported that many of the apprehended were drivers of large trucks operating with invalid or fraudulent licenses, raising significant safety concerns on Oklahoma’s highways.
Governor Stitt asserted that years of leniency under previous federal administrations have allowed the state to become a refuge for harmful individuals: “Former President Biden’s weak border policies allowed our country to become a safe haven for criminal illegal migrants — that ends in Oklahoma with Operation Guardian.”
State data highlighted the pressing need for action, indicating that approximately 525 undocumented offenders are currently imprisoned in Oklahoma at an estimated taxpayer cost of $36,000 daily. Notably, 30% of these crimes are related to violent offenses against children, while others involve assaults and homicides.
The initiative goes beyond traditional immigration enforcement. It allows for closer cooperation between state and local officers and federal immigration authorities, streamlining processes for detaining offenders ready for deportation. Furthermore, the program empowers parole boards to transfer noncitizen inmates directly into federal custody when removal orders are already established.
In a clear demonstration of leadership, Commissioner Tim Tipton emphasized the dual objective of the operation: safeguarding Oklahoma communities while imposing law and order. “This plan ensures Oklahoma leads the nation in cracking down on illegal aliens who’ve committed crimes against our communities,” he stated.
Operation Guardian stands as a bold testament to Governor Stitt's commitment to prioritizing the security of Oklahomans, seeking to restore not only order but also confidence in the safety of their streets. As the implications of this operation unfold, it is evident that states seeking to regain control over their borders are stepping forward, challenging a long-standing narrative of inaction at the federal level.
