Bill Title: Amends the Unified Code of Corrections. Requires the Department of Corrections (IDOC) to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) which authorizes the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to enter into written agreements with a state to remove an alien in the custody of that state.

11 | be selected by the Director of Corrections on whatever | ||||||
12 | basis
he deems proper in consideration of their term, | ||||||

23 | this subsection,
the Director may apply to any circuit | ||||||
24 | court to secure compliance with the

person refusing to obey the subpoena to appear at an | ||||||
22 | investigation or
hearing, or to there produce documentary | ||||||
23 | evidence, if so ordered, or to
give evidence relative to the | ||||||
24 | subject matter of that investigation or
hearing. Any failure to | ||||||
25 | obey such order of the circuit court may be
punished by that | ||||||
26 | court as a contempt of court.
