www.GoodMorningGwinnett.com #Podast Activists have called on the Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners to oppose the county sheriff’s participation in a controversial immigration program.

Known as the 287(g) program, it deputizes state and local officials with certain powers of federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement authorities. Sheriff Butch Conway has hailed the program as a way to reduce and prevent crime. But opponents have said the program leads to racial profiling by law enforcement and fear of police in immigrant communities.
