(MSC News)--Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse has been appointed to the National Sheriff’s Association Immigration and Border Security Committee by NSA President Greg Champagne.  Sheriff Morse will serve as a member of the committee representing Midwestern sheriffs on immigration policy. Currently, there are 3,085 sheriffs in the United States of America.

Sheriff Tim Morse is honored to be considered for this appointment to the NSA.  Sheriff Morse says, "There could not be a more important time than now to deal with immigration concerns in our nation. With over one million criminal illegal aliens walking the streets of American, and the current methamphetamine and heroin epidemic brought to us by the Mexican drug cartels, every state has become a border state.  It is imperative for our country to have sound immigration policies and it is just as important to enforce those policies regardless of party politics."
