The New Hampshire Association of Counties indicates the bill as amended would require county correctional facilities to hold individuals beyond the current time they are held in county correctional facilities.
This Association states this will lead to significant increases for counties that do not have a contract to cover the expenses of housing, food, hygiene products and medical expenses.
The average cost to hold someone in a county correctional facility is $120-140 a day excluding medical expenses.
The Association is unable to determine how many ICE detainees may come through the county jails, and any resulting cost increase is indeterminable.
