september 5, 2013Opinion [email protected] SAFE Act is unsafe for immigrants The SAFE Act would further criminalize undocumented immigrants and would go after Dreamers

calvin ratana daily sundial

In a push for immigration reform, the GOP gave their lat- est conservative piecemeal: the Strengthen and Fortify Enforce- ment (SAFE) Act. Proposed by U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.), the SAFE Act aims to fix the immigration sys- tem in America “step-by-step and increment-by-increment,” according to Gowdy. In short, the SAFE Act, if passed, will automatically make every undocumented immigrant a criminal within America, pun- ishable with jail time. On top of such a heavy sentence, detention of undocumented immigrants will be expanded and federal immigration laws will be decentralized. States and localities will be given the authority to write and enforce their illustration by jennifer luxton/ CONTRIBUTOR own immigration laws.
