President Obama won re-election with a mandate to do better on immigration, not to continue broken policies like the Delegation of Immigration Authority Section 287(g) Immigration and Nationality Act. The 11 new applications and the active counties are up for review by the Department of Homeland Security. We need to make it clear that 287(g) should be a thing of the past. Our families belong together. It's police and ICE that should be separated. When immigrants can't trust local police, we are more vulnerable to dangerous criminals.
We want to see a difference on immigration in the President Obama's second term. The road to reform can start by terminating 287(g). It leads to racial profiling, makes us all less safe, and should be ended
