The two new decisions focus on immigrants with criminal convictions. In the first, Matter of Castillo-Perez, Barr ruled that two or more Driving Under the Influence convictions disqualify an immigrant from having"good moral character."
Immigration attorneys expressed outrage at how many people would be barred from using those processes under the new decision. "This sounds more like an application of common sense than a dastardly attempt to do an end-run on aliens' due process rights," Cadman said."The public needs to keep firmly in mind that these two certifications involve aliens convicted of serious crimes who were seeking to evade removal from the United States."
Progressive prosecutors around the country, many of them recently elected, have been pushing for potential immigration consequences, like deportation, to be taken into account at the beginning of a local criminal case. Some have even added immigration attorneys to their staff to help with those efforts.
For years, those sentence modifications were accepted by immigration judges. Barr's decision changes that, limiting which modifications can count in immigration court. To count, a modification must be specifically because of an error in the procedure of the case, not to avoid deportation.
This administration whole tactic is exploiting loopholes in all laws to use to their advantage - this is the way trump does business and gets over on people- a leopard never changes his spots.
America needs to fight for Americans not for people who come here illegally. Legal immigrants follow the America’s laws not sneaking into America.
The crackdown is on illegal immigration. The POTUS is required to follow the laws Congress has legislated
