2019年7月14日,移民與海關執法局(ICE)在特蘭大、巴爾的摩、芝加哥、丹佛、休斯敦、洛杉磯、邁阿密、紐約、舊金山與新奧爾良等10個主要城市,開展了非法移民大遣送。本次行動針對2000名之前收到遞解令的無證移民,而不在此次逮捕範圍內的非法移民,一經發現也可能會被扣押。12日,川普就表示,如果有人非法進入這個國家,我們正在合法的將他們趕走。(Theycame in illegally, and we are bringing them out legally. )
對此,美國各界反響強烈。首先,ICE代理局長阿爾邦斯(MattAlbence)說:「我們執法行動針對的是那些上過移民法庭、並被移民法官勒令離開美國的特定人士。 」 而10個目標城市多地爆發遊行集會抗議ICE。洛杉磯市長EricGarcetti公開表示,洛杉磯政府和警察不會和ICE合作,我們要共同面對。(Weare in this together.)
儘管截止14日晚間,沒有具體ICE逮捕遣送的案例。但是面對四面楚歌,華人非法移民將如何自保?
· 川普為什麼現在驅逐非法移民?
為了選票。
根據CNN報道,奧巴馬遣返非法移民數量大於川普,小布希大於奧巴馬,柯林頓大於小布希。那為什麼到了川普,同樣的事情就成了過街老鼠,人人喊打呢?
因為遣返的人不同。
奧巴馬政府高級顧問CeciliaMuñoz評論,過去政府遣返多是剛非法到美的非法移民和罪犯,而川普政府目標在於,遣返多多益善,送走越多人越好。但這不是有效保證邊境安全的辦法。
紐約市長Billde Blasio認為,這是一場政治策略,目的在於盡最大可能的分裂民眾,轉移人們對於當下其他事情的關注。(It's"political strategy to keep people divided to the maximum extent possible,gin up his base and take people's eyes off all of the other things goingon,")他還表示,川普在試圖煽動分裂將之變成政治造勢。(he'strying to foment division as a political campaign)
川普用聯邦政府的錢,給自己的競選造勢。表面努力遣返,實際造成民眾恐慌,激起保守派投票熱情,與對中貿易戰一樣,都是為了拉選票,都是為了2020年大選!
· 非法移民≠罪犯
首先非法移民不是罪犯。罪犯是觸犯刑法的犯罪分子。而非法移民是指在不具備所在居留國法律允許的前提下居住,生活以及工作,在當地接受教育,既包括那些以非法渠道進入國家的偷渡客,也包括那些以合法渠道進入發達國家,超過可停留時間后沒有返回原本居住國家的人。
非法移民特別是華人非法移民從沒有殺人放火也沒有殺人強姦,在美國一直遵紀守法低頭做人。但是因為種種原因,他們在美遲遲沒有獲得合法身份。可是華人非法移民多年辛勤勞動早已把美國當成第二故鄉。現在川普的大棒一揮,他們馬上就要背井離鄉妻離子散。
華人非法移民不是洪水猛獸,他們建設美國,make America great ,何負於美哉!
· 如何自保
首先請看地圖避免移民站檢查,參見附錄全美移民檢查站,
但如果避免不了請看如下:1. 你有權力不說話,但是你必須告訴移民局你不想說話。2. 保持冷靜,不要逃跑。3.你有權不同意移民局搜索你的車子。4. 當移民局把你的車子攔下來時,如果他們要求,你必須顯示你的駕駛執照,註冊單和保險單給他們看。5. 當他們問你的移民身份時,你有權力保持沉默。你不必回答你是否是美國公民,或是如何進入美國(但是如果你是在邊界或機場,必須要回答那問題)。6. 如果你不是美國公民,但是有綠卡或有效 簽證 ,當被要求時您必須顯示給移民局看。7. 永遠不要說謊你是美國公民或是提供虛假的文件給移民局。8. 當移民局把你羈押時,你有權保持沉默,你有權利請一個律師,但政府不會為你提供一個律師,必須自己花錢請律師。9. 在未與律師談話之前,絕對不要簽署任何的文件。10. 寫下你能記住的一切事情,包括移民局官員的徽章編號,任何證人的信息。如果被移民局官員打傷要拍下所有的照片。
1875年的《佩奇法案》(PageAct) 禁止華人女性進入美國;1882年的《排華法案》(ChineseExclusion Act)曾讓多少華人淚滿襟;1943年 的《馬格努森法案》(MagnusonAct)廢除「排華法案」;直到2012年,美國參眾兩院議員才就《排華法案》向全體在美華人致歉。幾百年來,在美華人總是多災多難。如今特朗普為了選票又要搞事情,華人更要團結起來,保護自己,保護家人!
留得青山在不愁沒柴燒!
