Utah Gov. Spencer Cox has proposed reforms to make the detention and removal of migrants convicted of crimes easier.

Cox has repeatedly spoken about his view that migrants who are in the country illegally and then break Utah law should be deported.

Cox said the letter aims to be a “starting point” to address problems that reached their peak under the Biden administration’s immigration policies.

Cox has reaffirmed his commitment to the Utah Compact on Immigration , a statement signed by hundreds of Utah leaders in 2010 .

The statement was followed a year later by a historic package of state laws under the same name that included a guest worker program for undocumented migrants.

“The principles of the compact, I think, are still very important,” Cox said in December .
