New Training for Florida Ag Law Enforcement Officers

In Florida, agriculture cops just completed new training that will allow them to help federal officials with immigration enforcement.

All of Florida’s ag law enforcement officers are now certified under a federal program, allowing them to help federal officers perform immigration enforcement. Florida Ag Commissioner Wilton Simpson says the state is serious about law and order. He adds that, with this certification, the officers are now better equipped to take action whenever they encounter people breaking the law.
