Trump's Immigration Policies Are About Racism, Not Safety | Op-Ed | NowThis

President Trump's immigration policies have nothing to do with safety and everything to do with racism. » Subscribe to NowThis: http://go.nowth.is/News_Subscribe NowThis Producer Camille Padilla Dalmau dissects Donald Trump's immigration policies since he's been in office, including Trump's travel ban, ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) and DREAMers, the Trump administrations zero tolerance policy, Trump's executive orders, the SCOTUS travel ban ruling, President Trump's racism, and other factors impacting immigrants who are seeking asylum in America, such as U.S. fueled violence in countries such as El Salvador. The battle for the rights of families separated by the Trump administration isn’t over, even though an executive order has been signed. Once Trump took office, the anatomization of immigrants increased drastically and the ICE began detaining people outside of courthouses, churches, hospitals, and even schools. And after the administration announced its zero-tolerance policy, which criminally processes asylum seekers, The ICE also began separating children from their parents and throwing them in detention centers. The administration claims that these polices were passed to keep the country safe — but it’s hard to ignore their racist implications. Trump has been extremely outspoken when it comes to his opinion of immigrants, claiming they’re bringing drugs and crime into the country — even though studies have shown that immigrants have less criminal convictions than native-born Americans. And though asylum seekers usually come to America to flee crime and conviction in their own countries, Trump and his administration’s policies make them into the criminals, and punishes them accordingly. "What we really need is comprehensive immigration reform," says Dalmau. "The last comprehensive immigration bill Congress passed was signed by Ronald Reagan in 1986." Although the policy’s cruel practices were called off, there are still plenty of unfair policies being passed at immigrants’ expense, like the recent travel ban. But supporting grassroots and legal organizations advocating for migrant people can help unsure some of them get justice. Finding out what your state representative’s stance on immigration is and demanding just reform can also help solve this effectively racist immigration problem.
