What constitutional rights do undocumented immigrants have?

The administration’s “zero-tolerance” immigration policy and the recent surge in family separations at the border -- a practice President Donald Trump ended through executive order -- has called attention to the legal rights of immigrants under U.S. law.

What constitutional rights do undocumented immigrants have?

To answer those questions, we must start with a more basic question–does the U.S. Constitution apply to undocumented immigrants?

“Yes, without question,” said Cristina Rodriguez, a professor at Yale Law School. “Most of the provisions of the Constitution apply on the basis of personhood and jurisdiction in the United States.”

Many parts of the Constitution use the term “people” or “person” rather than “citizen.” Rodriguez said those laws apply to everyone physically on U.S. soil, whether or not they are a citizen.

As a result, many of the basic rights, such as the freedom of religion and speech, the right to due process and equal protection under the law apply to citizens and noncitizens.

The answer is simple "it will cost us far less a year to deport them than it will cost the taxpayer each year to have them here". Full stop.

As an added bonus, once they are gone and Remain In Mexico is applied, the costs for the existing illegals until they are deported will be less as the denominator will keep decreasing.

Instead of the media complaining about the costs to deport, they should be asking why in the hell your border is open.

If Martha Vineyard accepts and houses just 10,000 illegals than the rest of the media bubble dwellers can speak for all of America who just voted for the mass deportation. They couldn't even handle a couple of handfuls before they were quietly sent on their way. "Not in my backyard!" they whispered to one another in hushed tones.

Link to yer numbers?

You must have missed the screams of our own children with the inflation. Watching commercials of American children going to ed hungry and asking for donations while trying to figure out how the Great Society is 60 years old, and we have the same poverty is mesmerizing. Then again, we now know after seeing that legislation from Progs the first two years of Joe and Kamala that they waste trillions and trillions of dollars.

Yeah, when Trump gave away trillions you think it has zero affect on inflation along with shutting down supply lines and society

The Sixth Amendment of the Constitution guarantees the right to legal counsel in all criminal proceedings. Under this

You mean public threats like enemy combatants. Those taking up arms against US soldiers.

Guess what. Even they have constitutional rights.

In the 2008 case Boumediene v. Bush, the Court rejected this argument in a 5-4 opinion, and ruled that the constitutional privilege of habeas extends to Guantanamo detainees

Nobody was trying to remove prisoners in GITMO. Apples and oranges.

As to the 6th, most immigration proceedings are civil, not criminal. Under such auspices the 6th has no bearing on mass deportation. The president was given a mandate by the people. Do not expect the courts to bend over backwards for illegal aliens over the will of the people.

How much does that cost with Trump as president?

Trump was doing everything in his power to stop it, while DemocRATS fought him every step of the way and vilified him in the media as a xenophobe. Biden intentionally encouraged 15 million to pour in. If you can't see the grand canyon divide in that you are literally stupid.

She is wrong of course, in the 14th person is specifically used in reference to Senators. Clearly that cannot include illegal aliens. It is through nefarious means and petty semantics in which activists attempt to pervert the Constitution in favor of illegal aliens over our own citizens.

It's moonbat, that goes without saying.

It comes back to the same questions no liberal seems capable of answering. Why do they want illegal drugs, sex trafficking, and violent criminals in this country? Any attempt to verify and vet incoming foreigners is thwarted by them. Now the people have spoken and the liberal desires for mayhem and murder be damned.

The job of the courts is to uphold the law and the constitution. They have to come to the same conclusion of law, when it comes to the rights of "the people" vs the rights of "the citizens" Where the constitution often makes a clear distinction.

14th Amendment
No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

Maybe you should first ask, why did George W. Bush let in 19 hijackers to kill 3,000 Americans on 9-11?

Trump was to busy trying to destroy Oblamacare the last time.

You can seal off the border and drugs will still get in, just like in prison, just like you can never stop crime

The people are the citizens and only the citizens. Keep reading the 14th. Person is citizen, there is no other way to interpret it.

People who came here on student visas? You support illegals but not legal immigration? What point are you trying to make?

You can greatly diminish it which would cause prices to skyrocket. If prices are too high fewer people will even try it in the first place.

That's no reason to invite the criminals in your front door.

But it's a good reason to have security cameras and a loaded shotgun.

Put simply, think "When in Rome".
Anyone within our borders are subject to our laws, and our rule of law aka Constitution.
The only exception are foreign diplomats, counsels and leaders.

The US census is in the constitution, and the US Census counts illegal aliens among the population.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

www.census.gov

The resident population counts include all people (citizens and noncitizens) who are living in the United States at the time of the census.

Romans counted everyone too, even those who weren't Roman citizens. But those who weren't citizens had virtually no representation, very few rights, and could be nailed to a cross at whim.

Maybe we should line the roads into the US with crucified invaders, as a warning to stay the fuck out of this country.

Yes she is.

Dumb as a box of rocks.

Or is her case, dumber than a bag of dicks.

Enforcing law is expensive..

But maybe we can relocate money from harris fund for illegals to do this

No can do. Her campaign in $20 million in debt after spending like there’s no tomorrow and paying millions to irrelevant celebrities to appear at her rallies. She even paid Oprah $1 million dollars for her to “interview” her!

(If she was so reckless with her donors’ money, imagine how she would have managed the government’s!)

^^^ why in the world are these idiot Dems STILL defending the right of unskilled, semi-literal illegal immigrants fo be in this country? How out of touch do some of them remain? Don’t they know that’s one of the biggest reasons they lost the election?

Not necessarily. They can consider the impact of their decision on the well-being of the nation (as they see it). The libs on the SCOTUS do that all the time.

For example, Obamacare - forcing Americans to buy a private product and fining them if they don’t - was unconstitutional.
