Express deportation: US begins process of mass deportation of immigrants
The United States government has initiated the express deportation process, after the new immigration regulations in the country come into force. In this way, any undocumented immigrant who has been in the United States for less than 2 uninterrupted years can be deported immediately.
Today the official gazette will be published where the new regulations against undocumented immigrants are declared. In this way, it is expected that many these types of individuals will be deported without prior notice and without going directly through the courts of that country.
This would be a process that seeks to confront the terrible case of Mexican immigrants who arrive at the border with the United States every day. Thus, it would seek to accelerate the entire treatment process for the more than 900,000 immigrants pending evaluation by US law.
Kevin McAleenan, secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, made this point when he referred to these new regulations as an attempt to confront the "current crisis on the southern border." Therefore, it is expected that the case of illegal immigration can finally be stopped in the territory of the United States.
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) indicated that they will file a lawsuit against these measures, which would put the health of immigrants and their entire family at risk:
Immigrants who have lived in the country for years will have less protection than when traffic offenses are tried. The plan is illegal, period.
Similarly, Jennifer Minear, president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), pointed out that these types of acts go against the integrity and rights of immigrants:
Expedited deportation gives Immigration officers almost total authority to detain, prosecute, and remove someone from this country. Now DHS seeks to apply that power across the country, subjecting thousands of people to deportation without a meaningful opportunity to gather evidence, consult with an attorney, or appear before a judge.
For all this, the tension in the United States has been witnessed again, seeing two groups polarized before the decision of the Donald Trump government to deport undocumented migrants, without them having the right to go to court to present their cases.
