A group of local prosecutors concerned about immigration enforcement tactics and the lack of federal accountability has launched a project to strategize and seek accountability for what they consider federal overreach and unconstitutional behavior. The program is called Fight Against Federal Overreach, a tongue-in-cheek reference to an obscene acronym that is popular in memes and has been used by members of the Trump administration to taunt opponents. The prosecutors say the federal government isn't holding officers accountable for excessive force or other actions, and that the surges are reverberating in their local criminal justice operations.
