This will counter extradition of criminals and use Oregon taxes to bring back criminals for trial. If convicted, we have to pay for their incarceration ad when freed there is no provision to deport them.

This bill sounds like if an illegal immigrant is extradited to another country for a crime, but can be brought back to Oregon if they performed a criminal act and then tried for that act. Then the Oregon taxpayer pays for said trial and the criminal if they get released they do not get deported. Not sure who came up with this bill, but it sounds like a joke.
I oppose this bill as written.
