BREAKING: President Biden just issued new ICE guidance wholly abandoning his pledge to halt deportations. ACLU says this is "a disappointing step backward from the Biden administrations earlier commitments to fully break from the harmful deportation policies" of Trump and Obama.

Is this what you're referring to?
https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/17/politics/immigration-enforcement-biden/index.html
US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is rolling out new guidelines that would curtail enforcement measures, focusing more narrowly on immigrants who pose a national security, border security or public safety risk, the agency announced Thursday.

The new guidance was prompted by an executive order signed by President Joe Biden shortly after taking office and marks a return to Obama-era immigration enforcement measures based on a priority system instead of the more aggressive approach taken under the Trump administration.

Depends. If they are white and from Europe or the UK they mostly get ignored or get extended visas. The handcuffs and forced deportations are almost exclusively used on the brown people that come from the south. Sad stuff

So everyone who has no criminal background, so long as they hit the shores of your country, are given visas? How long does their visa allow them to stay?

Are you referring to this memorandum?: https://www.ice.gov/doclib/news/releases/2021/021821_civil-immigration-enforcement_interim-guidance.pdf



This was sent out by the current ICE director, Tae Johnson. It's temporary measures until the new DHS secretary issues new guidelines. He was just sworn in on the 2nd of this month and plans to to so within 90 days.

So, how does this get blamed on Biden, TC?

You keep deflecting to skin color, making it borderline race baiting.

If they are illegal, regardless if white or not, the government can boot their illegal ass out. This isnt a controversial idea in households around the world, let alone actual countries, that can and will remove guests who overstay their welcome.

Didn't Obama have a record for the amount of deportations under his administration? Democrats are better than Republicans on many things, but on immigration they are both abhorrent, even though Democrats have a better marketing campaign in getting people to believe they are more sympathetic to immigration issues. But I guess now that theres a Dem in charge other Dem voters will bend over backwards to justify doing the same things Republicans did

Then you've committed an illegal act. That doesn't make you illegal as a person. And well, people seeking asylum aren't breaking the law

This is just a semantic argument that has no bearing on the issue. The claim isn't that a person is illegal, the claim is that a person who is in the country illegally is a candidate for intervention in accordance with the law.

I really don't know what you guys think that you're going to accomplish with this ridiculous "people can't be illegal" argument. People can damn sure be illegal immigrants, and the vast majority of them are not actually asylum seekers either. It's so strange to me how in the last couple of years so many people started acting like every illegal immigrant is actually an asylum seeker.

It's an important semantic argument as referring to people as "illegal" dehumanizes them. They are actual people seeking asylum, and they are fleeing terrible conditions in their home country created by the USA.

Sure, it's true that not every undocumented immigrant is an asylum seeker. They're still not illegal, they're still people, and they're usually at the very lowest end of social standing, working really shitty jobs and keeping the economy going. And if they're from Latin America, they're still fleeing terrible conditions created by the US. So eh

Yes, they are still illegal immigrants and economic migrants are not asylum seekers.

All that story shows is that the rescue beacons don't even work. Were they captured after pressing the button? It says they waited 12 hours and nobody came. That would mean nobody came to help or to arrest them. So where are you getting this narrative?

"While the Biden administration rightly acknowledges that immigrants are our family members, our coworkers, and our neighbors, for now it has chosen to continue giving ICE officers significant discretion to conduct operations that harm our communities and tear families apart," Naureen Shah, senior advocacy and policy counsel for ACLU, said in a release.
"The interim enforcement priorities detailed today import the injustices of the criminal legal system and will lead to continued disproportionate deportations of Black and Brown immigrants. The priorities use sweeping and overbroad presumptions of threat that have for decades resulted in biased profiling," Shah added.
The ACLU also criticized the portion of the policy allowing the arrest of anyone that crossed the border illegally after Nov. 1, something they say assumes that all recent border crossers are threats and conflicts with Biden's attempts to redesign the asylum process.
