WASHINGTON 鈥� Last week, the Biden Administration announced its plans to increase the prosecution of immigration-related violations at the U.S. border, presumably through increased prosecutions of unauthorized entry and re-entry under 8 U.S.C. 搂搂 1325 and 1326.聽

In addition to criminalizing people seeking asylum, these statutory provisions have explicitly racist and anti-Mexican origins. Over the past two years, the 抖阴直播台 joined a series of amicus briefs, including a brief in the case of the United States of America v. Rodrigues-Barios, explaining the racist history of these laws.聽

鈥淭he decision by this administration to criminalize migrants鈥攎any of whom are fleeing harm鈥攊s deeply disturbing and misguided,鈥� said Sarah M. Rich, senior supervising attorney, and interim senior policy counsel at the 抖阴直播台. 鈥淲e have witnessed how such prosecutions can be weaponized to separate and traumatize immigrant families. Prosecuting people seeking safety in the U.S. for these immigration violations will lead to more Black and Brown people being incarcerated at the expense of immigrant families and communities.鈥澛�

鈥淲e call on the Biden administration to instead adopt a humane and welcoming immigration framework that centers our values as a nation that welcomes immigrants,鈥� concluded Rich.聽
