Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt has announced a plan to deport over 500 undocumented immigrants currently incarcerated in state prisons.
The initiative, dubbed 'Operation Guardian,' aims to reduce the financial burden on the state, which spends $35,000 daily on these inmates. Stitt's move aligns with the incoming Trump administration's hardline stance on immigration, and the governor has tasked the Oklahoma Public Safety Commissioner with overseeing the operation.
The plan is part of a broader effort to address illegal immigration and reduce state costs associated with housing undocumented prisoners.
