Edmonds Mayor Mike Rosen and Police Chief Loi Dawkins released a joint statement Wednesday afternoon acknowledging community concerns regarding actions taken by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. “In alignment with Washington State law—including the Keep Washington Working Act and RCW 10.93—and Edmonds Police Department policy, our officers do not conduct federal immigration enforcement. Immigration enforcement is a federal responsibility, and the Edmonds Police Department does not participate in or interfere with those activities. When responding to calls for service, officers do not inquire about immigration status, and immigration status does not determine whether assistance or protection is provided. Trust and cooperation are essential to public safety, and the Edmonds Police Department remains committed to serving the Edmonds community with professionalism and respect.
