The Latin America Working Group’s Post

The GOP’s proposed $150 billion immigration enforcement package is an inexcusable waste of federal resources. More than that, it represents an unprecedented effort to commodify human rights. This package, which is included in the GOP “Reconciliation Bill”: ❌ introduces new prohibitive fees for normalizing migration status ❌ forces migrants to pay into a system that is actively criminalizing them ❌ allocates billions in funds for indefinite detention and deportation ❌ includes funding for deportation to El Salvador ❌ does not address rampant human rights violations in our immigration system The American people cannot afford for this bill to pass.
