House passed Kate's law and No Santuary for Criminals Act

But the thread really isn't about #44 or ICE. It is about an amendment to a law which changes max 2 year sentences to 5 years and changes a max 20 year sentence to 5 min and 20 max.

There is that No Sanctuary law but I can't find the text for it so who knows what it is actually going to do.

I can understand what it is. But I think what everyone is really excited about is the actual enforcement of that amendment. Which is all the people really wanted.

Nice find. Thank you.

I found Kate's law and it is really no big deal.

No Sanctuary for Criminals Act seems to be political grandstanding as well.

the Department may take custody of the individual within 48 hours (excluding weekends and holidays), but in no instance more than 96 hours, following the date that the individual is otherwise to be released from the custody of the relevant Federal, State, or local law enforcement entity.

I remember seeing this as the actual problem, local LEO could not legally hold someone after their release date. I'm sure this will be challenged.

A win for the American people and one of the reasons a majority of the US voted for President Trump.

Obama deported more people than any other president in the history of the US.

Everyone is excited about the status quo.

How did that happen?

a reply to: DBCowboy

You might be right, but I am sure Trump will expose it via twitter maybe, and have people calling their senators.

That was before Trump got elected. Just wait and you will be very excited.

Edited to add, Why deport someone when you do nothing to stop them from re-entering? Look at the growth of heroin in this country under Obama. He learned from the Clinton's how to make money from it.

No, Trumps numbers from ICE are below Obama's from 2009-2014 (maybe even 2015). The status quo is now. People just seem to have shifted the bar.

I'm not american so I doubt I will see any change in my excitement. Of course this allows me to not see things with a bias.

So you listen to the propaganda arm of the DNC, the MSM.

Not biased at all.

ICE has made it clear that they are finally being permitted and encouraged to do their jobs.

There were many reports of ICE's hands being tied under the Obama administration.

If you are not in the US, you might not understand the implications.

But why deport a lot of people who you do not stop from re-entering? Seriously. Think about that for a few minutes. Heroin increased drastically. What better way to do it than use the government to get smugglers back out of the country.

a reply to: DrStevenBrule

No, I looked at the numbers reported by ICE.

The one that made the big splash about 1378 arrests where only 112 were illegal. Why is ICE reporting the arrests of US citizens and burring the fact that only a small number were illegal?

I guess it's to get amercicans excited.

a reply to: BlueAjah

They are not reporting better numbers than when they claimed to have their hands tied.

Seems like politics as usual.

That is not what I said, I have no problem with every illegal being deported but don't act like the numbers currently reported are much larger than during the last admin.

Immigration Arrests Rise Sharply as a Trump Mandate Is Carried Out

Immigration arrests shot up 38 percent in the first three months of the Trump administration compared with the same period last year, according to figures released Wednesday, one of the first clear indications that the president’s hard-line policies are being carried out on a grand scale.

You mean not yet. Just give this time to take effect, they did just sign it.

ICE arrests under Trump jump 40 percent as border crossings drop

Making good on a promise to overturn Obama-era immigration policies, Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrests increased 38 percent during the first three months of the Trump administration.[/ex

Trump's administration just started.

It wasn't the deporting they were angry with. It was the amount coming across the border. Why do think everyone wants border enforcement. They will take anything right now. Yes, even a wall. Just something. I know a lot of border patrol and through the Obama administration I talked a lot with them. Their hands were tied, that is not a lie. Ice just had to deport them, which as we already know is exactly what Obama wanted. He also wanted to make it easier to get back into the U.S.
