New and Better Asylum Rules Coming which Democrats will fight Tooth and Nail.

Senate meeting erupts as Graham clashes with Dems over asylum bill: 'You're not going to take my job!'

The bill itself calls for asylum claims from the Northern Triangle of Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador to be made at refugee centers to be set up in Central America and Mexico

The bill also calls for 500 new immigration judges so that cases are handled more swiftly, reducing the current backlog of cases.

“I don’t want to separate families, I want to adjudicate families,” Graham said Thursday.

The bill would also allow unaccompanied children from Central America to be sent back to their home country after screening, as is the case with children who enter from Canada and Mexico.

Graham is a fascist pig. Republicans need to lose the Senate. They cannot be trusted with power.

Describe Fascism using a cited source and accompanying link and then please tell us how Graham is a Fascist Pig, please.

You are simply appealing to ignorance of our express establishment clause for naturalization, every time the right wing has nothing but bigotry instead of valid and rational arguments.

This is nothing but word salad and means nothing.

You are just trolling and you have no argument.

Immigration Law Exists.

Pretending it does not exist does not help you with your unintelligible and nonsensical argument and advocacy for open borders and decriminalization of Illegal immigration.

The Law exists.

Have Congress Change it since they wrote it if you don't like it.

Our supreme law of the land is more supreme than any implied right wing fantasy.

There is no fantasy. It's all in your head.

Please define this Right Wing Fantasy where you say that The US has no right to manage Immigration and Define Citizenship.

Otherwise, you are just trolling.

The 9th and 10th amendments say the opposite, that there has to be explicit authorization granted in the Constitution, or then by default there is no federal jurisdiction possible at all.

Those are just words, feelings and opinion.

You are unable to prove your assertion that Congress does not have the right to Legislate on Matters of Immigration, Naturalization, Citizenship and Border Security.

Please Prove that Immigration Law does not exist, and that Congress does not have a right to Legislate on Matters of Immigration, Naturalization, Citizenship and Border Security.

Our Constitution is express not implied by right wing fantasy in any way. Show us the express immigration clause, right wingers. Naturalization is not immigration. We should have no illegals or any illegal underclass, with our express, Naturalization clause.

 

[danielpalos]

How about you Prove Immigration Law does not exist and that Congress has no right to create Immigration Legislation nor the Federal Gov enforce it?

Your feelings and opinion don’t count.

I did. It is null and void from Inception when found to be implied by right wing fantasy instead of express through the wisdom of our Founding Fathers.

I am not the one implying right wing fantasy over our express supreme law of the land.

Again, Broken record, and Empty Head.

There is no fantasy. This is a discussion board. A discussion over facts, and Immigration Law that you claim does not exist. The burden of proof is on you to prove that The United States Congress does not have the right to create The Immigration Law they Legislated, and passed in to law.

I and others have posted actual existent immigration law on the books and enforceable by The Federal Government.

You claim that Immigration Law does not exist, and that The United States as a Sovereign Nation has no right to create Immigration Legislation.

You claim that The United States Congress has no power to Legislate over Immigration and Naturalization and Citizenship.

So Laws allowing Foreigners to apply for Citizenship, Green Cards, Work and Student VISAs, or allow for Applications for Immigration are all Null and Void? You are smoking crack. In other words, you are saying if you weren't an original colonist, or the descendant of one, you are not a citizen?

Stopping fake asylum applicants is important, but getting rid of the 22 million hiding here is more important. E-verify isn't working, Martial Law may work. We need a concerted effort to deliver new ideas for illegal removal proposed to our government leaders. I say offer rewards to people for help in arrest and removal, similar to the rewards offered by the IRS for tax cheats.

We have every Law, US CODE, Statute available on the books already to remove EVERY SINGLE ILLEGAL ALIEN HERE.

We need to just enforce The Law, and start Prosecuting Politicians, States, and Municipalities who are Obstructing Justice.

Congress Made The Law, and it is THE US GOVERNMENT'S Responsibility to ENFORCE IT.

The states are supposed to adhere to Federal Law, and if they do not, The Person's Responsible for Adherence to The Law who are engaged in Obstructing Justice should be Prosecuted.

Donald Trump is the one obstructing justice. Try malicious prosecutions and destroy the Republican Party once and for all.

Congress did not give Trump the authority to separate families. Did not give Trump the power to change asylum laws. Arrest Trump and Republicans.

{...
Amendment 9
- Other Rights Kept by the People

The enumeration in the Constitution of certain rights shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Amendment 10
- Undelegated Powers Kept by the States and the People

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
...}

The whole point of the Bill of Rights was to constrain the federal government.
The states did not want the federal government assuming any additional powers, so they insisted the Bill of Rights say that the feds only had what authority it was explicitly delegated in the Constitution.
But no where in the Constitution is there any authority over immigration delegated to the federal government.

I hate to tell you this, but it is The Constitution which gives Jurisdiction of the US Federal Government and Congress to Legislate Immigration Law, and to allow The Federal Government to enforce it.

Not sure what Law School you went to, maybe in The Virgin Islands, but you should send your degree back.

You completely don't understand The Constitution which is called "The Framework" of our Nation's Rights, Privileges, and Law, as a basic set of principles, and then Congress Legislates based on those principle and expounds upon them.

Immigration Law on the Books currently is Constitutional and have passed the test.

US Code is created by Legislative Actions, which is a Constitutional Process by which Bills are Introduced and become Law.

You also ignored other parts of The Constitution addressing Citizenship & Naturalization. Particluarly the 14th amendment which confirms already existent jurisdiction over non citizens of legal status in THE US. That was passed in 1870 by through Republican Efforts to address Democrat Plantation Owners still holding slaves, and The Democrat South's Denial of Civil Rights to Freed Slaves. It gave all the offspring of Freed Slaves (they had legal status in The US) Citizenship.

Do you bother reading at all? Did you ignore the Title of The Thread?


Immigration LAW 1907. TITLE 8, U.S.C. 1324


This is just one law out of many that regulate immigration.

In 2010 Congress tried to pass Obama's Dream Act. It failed to pass. Never became Law. The Dems have tried to pass it several times. Obama then signed DACA to delay enforcement of current immigration law. DACA is not law, and the only reason it has not expired is because of battles in court, but ultimately those all will be lost, because it's just an EO.

Here are a few of our Immigration Laws, passed by Congress over the years:

1790 Naturalization Act of 1790 Established the rules for naturalized citizenship, as per Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution, but placed no restrictions on immigration. Citizenship was limited to white persons, with no other restriction on non-whites. Note: this is a restriction on naturalization (voting and office-holding), not on immigration.

1795 Naturalization Act of 1795 Lengthened required residency to become citizen. Again, this is a restriction on naturalization, not on immigration.

1798 Naturalization Act(officially An Act to Establish a Uniform Rule of Naturalization; ch. 54, 1 Stat. 566)

Alien Friends Act(officially An Act Concerning Aliens; ch. 58, 1 Stat. 570)

Alien Enemies Act(officially An Act Respecting Alien Enemies; ch. 66, 1 Stat. 577)

• 
  
  
  • Extended the duration of residence required for immigrants to become citizens to 14 years. Enacted June 18, 1798, with no expiration date, it was repealed in 1802.
  • Authorized the president to deport any resident immigrant considered "dangerous to the peace and safety of the United States." It was activated June 25, 1798, with a two-year expiration date.
  • Authorized the president to apprehend and deport resident aliens if their home countries were at war with the United States of America. Enacted July 6, 1798, and providing no sunset provision, the act remains intact today as 50 U.S.C. § 21

1802 Naturalization Law of 1802

• 
  
  
  • Repealed the 14-year residency requirement of Naturalization Act of 1798.

1870 Naturalization Act of 1870

• 
  
  
  • Extended the naturalization process to "aliens of African nativity and to persons of African descent."
  • Other non-whites were not included in this act and remained excluded from naturalization, per the Naturalization Act of 1790

1875 Page Act of 1875 (Sect. 141, 18 Stat. 477, 1873-March 1875)

• 
  
  
  • The first federal immigration law and prohibited the entry of immigrants considered as "undesirable"
  • The law classified as "undesirable" any individual from Asia who was coming to America to be a contract laborer
  • Strengthen the ban against "coolie" laborers, by imposing a fine of up to $2,000 and maximum jail sentence of one year upon anyone who tried to bring a person from China, Japan, or any oriental country to the United States "without their free and voluntary consent, for the purpose of holding them to a term of service"

1882 Chinese Exclusion Act

• 
  
  
  • Restricted immigration of Chinese laborers for 10 years.
  • Prohibited Chinese naturalization.
  • Provided deportation procedures for illegal Chinese.
  • Marked the birth of illegal immigration (in America).[1]
  • The Act was "a response to racism [in America] and to anxiety about threats from cheap labor [from China]." [2]

1882 Immigration Act of 1882

• 
  
  
  • Imposed a 50 cent head tax to fund immigration officials.

1885 Alien Contract Labor Law (Sess. II Chap. 164; 23 Stat. 332) Prohibited the importation and migration of foreigners and aliens under contract or agreement to perform labor in the United States

1891 Immigration Act of 1891

• 
  
  
  • First comprehensive immigration laws for the US.
  • Bureau of Immigration set up in the Treasury Dept.[3]
  • Immigration Bureau directed to deport unlawful aliens.
  • Empowered "the superintendent of immigration to enforce immigration laws".[4]

1892 Geary Act Extended and strengthened the Chinese Exclusion Act.

1898 United States v. Wong Kim Ark[5] The Supreme Court ruled that a child of Chinese descent born in the United States - whose parents at the time of his birth are subjects of the Emperor of China but who are domiciled in the United States as permanent residents; are carrying on business there; and are not employed in any diplomatic or other official capacity under the Emperor of China - is a citizen of the United States by virtue of having been born "in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof," per the first clause of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

Several years later, in the wake of the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake and Fire, a number of Chinese immigrants who were otherwise subject to the Chinese Exclusion Act were nonetheless able to claim American citizenship by alleging they were born in San Francisco, and that their birth certificates had been destroyed along with those of everyone else who had been born in San Francisco. "Papers for fictitious children were sold in China, allowing Chinese to immigrate despite the laws." [1]

1903 Immigration Act of 1903(Anarchist Exclusion Act) Added four inadmissible classes: anarchists, people with epilepsy, beggars, and importers of prostitutes

1906 Naturalization Act of 1906

• 
  
  
  • Standardized naturalization procedures
  • Made some knowledge of English a requirement for citizenship
  • Established the Bureau of Immigration and Naturalization

1907 Immigration Act of 1907 Restricted immigration for certain classes of disabled and diseased people

1917 Immigration Act of 1917(Barred Zone Act) Restricted immigration from Asia by creating an "Asiatic Barred Zone" and introduced a reading test for all immigrants over sixteen years of age, with certain exceptions for children, wives, and elderly family members.

1918 Immigration Act of 1918 Expanded on the provisions of the Anarchist Exclusion Act.

1921 Emergency Quota Act

• 
  
  
  • Limited the number of immigrants a year from any country to 3% of those already in the US from that country as per the 1910 census.

"An unintended consequence of the 1920s legislation was an increase in illegal immigration. Many Europeans who did not fall under the quotas migrated to Canada or Mexico, which [as Western Hemisphere nations] were not subject to national-origin quotas; [and] subsequently they slipped into the United States illegally." [6]

1922 The Cable Act of 1922(ch. 411, 42 Stat. 1021, "Married Women’s Independent Nationality Act") Reversed former immigration laws regarding marriage, also known as the Married Women's Citizenship Act or the Women's Citizenship Act.

[7] "Applications for legal admission into the United States increased following World War II — and so did illegal immigration." [8] Some used fraudulent marriages as their method of illegal entry in the U.S. "Japanese immigration became disproportionately female, as more women left Japan as "picture brides", betrothed to emigrant men into the U.S. whom they had never met." [9]

1982 Plyler v. Doe,[11] 457U.S. 202 (1982) The court also stated that illegal immigrants are "within the jurisdiction" of the states in which they reside and, therefore, are under the equal protection laws of the fourteenth amendment, and stated, "We have never suggested that the class of persons who might avail themselves of the equal protection guarantee is less than coextensive with that entitled to due process. To the contrary, we have recognized [457 U.S. 202, 212] that both provisions were fashioned to protect an identical class of persons, and to reach every exercise of state authority."

Colding, 344 U.S. 590, 596 (1953), "The Bill of Rights is a futile authority for the alien seeking admission for the first time to these shores. But while an alien lawfully enters and resides in this country he becomes invested with the rights guaranteed by the Constitution to all people within our borders".
Stated, "those cases in which aliens have been determined to enjoy certain constitutional rights establish only that aliens receive such protections when they have come within the territory of, and have developed substantial connections with, this country. See, e. g., Plyler v. Doe, 457 U.S. 202, 212 ."

2010 DREAM Act FAILED TO PASS'

2012 Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals(executive action)


Then there is US CODE 1325 the next section after 1324 which we have been discussing here, but no one on The LEFT wants to discuss the actual US CODE, because you people are Lawless.

Except that you are ignoring the definition of what is legal.
Federal legislation is not at all legal unless specifically authorized by the Constitution.
There is absolutely no authorization in the constitution for ANY federal immigration legislation.
So all those federal statutes you listed are totally and completely illegal.

Clearly the federal government has been trying to take over everything.
From the Dred Scott Decision, to Prohibition, to the War on Drugs, etc., but none of it is legal.
Even federal income tax is likely illegal.

If farmers and states want temporary migrant agricultural workers, there is no legal way for the feds to stop it.
This is especially true in the 7 states that used to be part of Mexico, and it is illegal to block movement. by treaty.

Stopping fake asylum applicants is important, but getting rid of the 22 million hiding here is more important. E-verify isn't working, Martial Law may work. We need a concerted effort to deliver new ideas for illegal removal proposed to our government leaders. I say offer rewards to people for help in arrest and removal, similar to the rewards offered by the IRS for tax cheats.

We have every Law, US CODE, Statute available on the books already to remove EVERY SINGLE ILLEGAL ALIEN HERE.

We need to just enforce The Law, and start Prosecuting Politicians, States, and Municipalities who are Obstructing Justice.

Congress Made The Law, and it is THE US GOVERNMENT'S Responsibility to ENFORCE IT.

The states are supposed to adhere to Federal Law, and if they do not, The Person's Responsible for Adherence to The Law who are engaged in Obstructing Justice should be Prosecuted.

Donald Trump is the one obstructing justice. Try malicious prosecutions and destroy the Republican Party once and for all.

Congress did not give Trump the authority to separate families. Did not give Trump the power to change asylum laws. Arrest Trump and Republicans.

I am in favor of prosecuting illegals and anyone who helped them. Separating families is OK with me-they can leave together anytime they want. The law requires Trump act on this.

The law requires the federal government to not break up families, and to grant asylum when there is a government murdering its civilians like in Honduras.

Well, according to The Poll, we have two people in USMB that absolutely hate America. Interesting.

I would rather see a family split than the infinitive you split. OK, put them in prison with their parents-I want to see how that works out. And their government's problem is not our problem-it is the FIRST country they come to-Mexico.

8 U.S. Code § 1327 - Aiding or assisting certain aliens to enter

It is completely legal and actually required by law, to assist foreign individual seeking asylum legally.

It is not Legal to assist an Illegal Alien attempting to come in to The US Illegally.

Only if they come through a port of entry and claim Asylum first can you advise them and direct them to Border Patrol. It is illegal to help them avoid Border Patrol or ICE. They must declare themselves. Even turning and running from a Border Patrol Agent is a crime. It is also illegal for a Coyote to take payment to assist an Illegal Alien in to crossing in to US Territory.

They also can only claim Asylum from a Contiguous Nation.

They cannot skip over Mexico to claim Asylum in The US. 98% of Asylum claims are Fraudulent, and only 2% show up for their Asylum Hearings. You'll be happy to know that we have an administration that is putting an end to abuses of Asylum status.
