They’re seriously tilting at windmills
Georgia Senate Democrats introduce bills to regulate federal immigration officials in state
Democratic Georgia lawmakers announced four bills Tuesday introducing rules for how Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and other federal agents could operate in Georgia.
The bills propose clear identification of ICE agents, legal protocol around immigration agents in places like schools and places of worship, the ability to bring a personal lawsuit against federal agents if they violate civilian rights during immigration enforcement, and permission from elected officials before the National Guard can be deployed within Georgia.
OK, the article delves into the details of the bills and the Feelings of the Democrats, but, first, Republicans control both the Ga Senate and House, so, even if the bills get a vote they’ll crash and burn. Even if it somehow passed, the governor would most likely veto it, especially regarding deployment of the National Guard, which the Georgia Constitution might make moot anyhow, as it invests the power in the Governor.
Second, federal law overrides state law when it comes to immigration, and state law cannot control federal law enforcement. Nor can it invest the power to sue federal officers personally in state court.
LA County moves forward with creating ‘ICE-free zones’ at county-owned facilities
The county Board of Supervisors unanimously directed its attorneys on Tuesday to draft an ordinance creating “ICE-free zones” to prevent county facilities from being used as staging areas or processing centers by federal immigration-enforcement authorities.
According to the motion authored by Supervisors Lindsey Horvath and Hilda Solis, the move is modeled after an October executive order by Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson designed to prohibit immigration authorities from using city-owned property during their operations — following the use of several school and city-owned parking lots by Immigration and Customs Enforcement officials.
Good luck!
Did some posters suffer from premature ejaculation upon reading the Trump/ICE porn after reading that 1000s of Somalis were going to lose their coveted refugee TPS (Temporary Protected Status) and then be subject to deportation?
Well as I told you before most Somalis, 97%, living in MN are US citizens with more than half born in USA. The total amount of Somali/Americans living in USA is about 250000
There are only between 1500 and 2500 that came recently and were given TPS. THOSE have 90 days to apply for a change of immigration status. Once they apply they will have a rather long wait until they are given a new immigration status
Trump is always getting his base overly excited over something that certainly will not happen immediately, and probably never will
Yes, Johnny, we did! It’s what normal people do….
Protecting and shielding their constituents. Gotta secure that illegal alien vote!
