发帖数: 61690 | 1 Under the new regulations, federal officers will no longer consider any
category of "removable alien" as exempt from removal, except for those
protected by the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.
The new regulations also restore programs for local law enforcement
collaboration with federal authorities that were tabled under the Obama
administration because of concerns that they violated due process or were a
hindrance to local authorities.
In the memos, Kelly does not direct National Guard troops to begin helping
arrest immigrants in states on or near U.S. borders. The proposal has been
included in a draft document that leaked but was later dismissed by White
House officials as inaccurate.
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Tuesday released details on how
it will prosecute undocumented immigrants and criminal immigrants.,
repealing nearly all of the Obama administration's guidances.
Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly's two memos expand raids and the
definition of criminal aliens, while diminishing sanctuary areas and
enlisting local law enforcement to execute federal immigration policy.
The only Obama-era guidances left in place were those relating to
undocumented immigrants brought to the United States as children.
The memos shed more light on Trump’s decision to vastly expand the
definition of criminal immigrants who are priorities for deportation.
Parents and other adults who help children enter the U.S. illegally could
now be subject to deportation or criminal prosecution.
The measure is meant to discourage Central American children who make the
often-dangerous trek into the country. The number has surged over the past
three years, as minors flee gang violence in countries such as Guatemala, El
Salvador and Honduras.
Unaccompanied minors who arrive in the U.S. are treated differently under
the law than adults; they must be resettled with parents or other adults in
the country as they await their immigration cases.
But the memos argue the system is being abused. They say 60 percent of
unaccompanied minors are placed into the care of one or more parents living
illegally in the U.S.
“Regardless of the desires for family reunification, or conditions in other
countries, the smuggling or trafficking of alien children is intolerable,”
one memo reads.
The document calls for authorities to “ensure the proper enforcement of our
immigration laws against those who directly or indirectly facilitate the
smuggling or trafficking of alien children into the United States,”
including removal or other prosecution.
It also suggests some children deemed unaccompanied minors have been wrongly
designated and could be subject to faster deportation proceedings.
The memos are meant to serve as a blueprint for federal officials to put
Trump’s immigration directives into place.
But the memos still leave some questions unanswered, such as how the
president’s proposed border wall will be funded and where to house
undocumented immigrants swept up in raids.
The memos direct immigration enforcement agencies to use detention when
starting removal proceedings against an immigrant, instead of giving them a
notice to appear in court.
Agencies are told to “allocate all available resources to expand their
detention capabilities and capacities” but Congress would likely need to
appropriate more money to build new detention centers.
Lawmakers would also need to give the federal government more money to build
the wall, which is estimated at roughly $20 billion.
President Trump’s January executive orders expanded federal immigration
authority, as well as the definition of who could be considered a criminal
alien, and cracked down on sanctuary cities.
Immigration raids that followed the orders were criticized for casting too
wide a net and targeting both low-level offenders and undocumented
immigrants who had otherwise followed the law.
Those actions would also have been counter to Obama-era enforcement
regulations, which were rendered void by Tuesday's memos. | P****R
