By

Slow-proofed and worth the wait. Worth its weight in flour.
Summary
The Port of Bellingham Board of Commissioners is considering a resolution to restrict civil immigration enforcement actions on port property, including at the Bellingham Shipping Terminal and Bellingham International Airport. If adopted, federal immigration agents would need a judicial warrant to detain individuals on port property. The resolution follows community activist concerns about DHS activities at the airport, and the port joins other local government entities seeking to limit federal immigration enforcement.
