Washington DC<\/i><\/b> <\/span>– U.S. Sens. Ron Wyden and Jeff Merkley introduced legislation today to block immigration agents from stalking<\/span> <\/span>sensitive locations like schools, hospitals, and religious institutions without prior approval and exigent circumstances.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Protecting Sensitive Locations Act codifies the Department of Homeland Security’s existing policies and expands on those policies to ensure that immigrants can have access to education, criminal justice, and social services without fear of deportation.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Federal officials trampling on decency and common sense so they can barrel into churches, hospitals and other sensitive places to hunt for people does nothing to make America safer,” <\/b>dijo Wyden. “This legislation is urgent business because it would prevent the administration’s misguided and malicious approach to law enforcement and ensure that people are not afraid to go to the doctor, to send their children to school or attend a place of worship.”<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

“The administration’s reckless approach to immigration enforcement erodes the trust that our law enforcement officers, health care organizations, schools and other public agencies have worked to build with Oregon’s immigrant communities,” <\/b>dijo Merkley. “This legislation would ensure that vulnerable populations — domestic violence survivors, school children, and seniors — would feel safe accessing fundamental services in their own communities.”<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The Protecting Sensitive Locations Act requires that, except in special circumstances, ICE agents receive prior approval from a supervisor when there are exigent circumstances before engaging in enforcement actions at sensitive locations, such as schools, hospitals and health clinics, places of worship, organizations assisting crime victims, and organizations that provide services to children, pregnant women, victims of crime or abuse, or individuals with mental or physical disabilities. The legislation also requires that ICE agents receive annual training and report annually regarding enforcement actions in these locations.<\/span><\/p>\n

Este proyecto de ley codifica y ampl\u00eda las reglas que ya existen en ICE, lo que brindar\u00eda coherencia a las pol\u00edticas entre las agencias de aplicaci\u00f3n y las administraciones a lo largo del tiempo, brindando a las comunidades inmigrantes la certeza de que se respetar\u00e1n sus derechos.<\/span><\/p>\n

The legislation introduced today by Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) is also co-sponsored by Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Al Franken (D-MN), Tim Kaine (D-VA), Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), Kamala Harris (D-CA), Edward J. Markey (D-MA), Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). The legislation is based on an amendment that Blumenthal included in the comprehensive immigration reform bill<\/span><\/a> passed by the Senate in 2013.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
