A local executive order from 2019 that attempted to contradict President Trump’s immigration policies was overturned by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
By preventing deportations at King County International Airport, also known as Boeing Field, the court ruled that King County, Washington, had breached its agreement.
The court ruled that the order was unlawful because it targeted federal procedures and was unjust to ICE. The local county attempted to halt Trump’s operations in 2019 when he used Boeing Fields to deport individuals who were in the country illegally.
The order forced ICE to begin using a Yakima, Washington, airport for the deportation aircraft. The drive from ICE’s Northwest detention facility was significantly longer.
Because of the increased distance between the airport and the ICE detention facilities, the relocation resulted in higher operating costs. According to the ruling, it also raised security concerns.
