ICE May Expand Sending Immigrants Abroad

An Internal Memo from the Head of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) indicates they may Expand its Efforts to Deport Immigrants to Countries where they do Not hold Citizenship.

The Memo was sent by Todd Lyons (R), the Acting Director of ICE, after a Supreme Court Decision in June, that Ruled that the Deportation of Eight Immigrants to South Sudan, was Legally Acceptable, with only One of the Men was from South Sudan.

News of the Memo came after a California Cannabis Farm Worker Died, and more than 300 others were Arrested during Two Raids on Thursday. Lyons wrote in the Memo that People could be sent to such Third-Party Countries with as little as Six hours' Notice, as long as the receiving Country has provided "credible diplomatic assurances" that the Prisoners would Not be subjected to Torture or Persecution. A Judge has Ordered Trump's Administration to Halt Indiscriminate Immigration Stops and Arrests in California.

ICE has Argued that such Third Country Deportations are necessary, because Challenges the Agency has faced when attempting to Deport Imigrants to their Home Countries. Trump (R) Administration have attempted to use such Deportations, as a Method to Quickly Remove Immigrants from the U.S.

Still, the Practice has faced Questions about whether the U.S. is Responsible for the Safety of such Immigrants after they have been Deported, especially when they have been held under Questionable Conditions such those in El Salvador's Antiterrorism Mega Prison. "The ramifications of Supreme Court's order will be horrifying," Trina Realmuto, Executive Director of the "National Immigration Litigation Alliance", said in a Statement in June.

"It strips away critical due process protections that have been protecting our class members from torture and death." U.N. Human Rights Experts, last week expressed Alarm at the Implications of the Supreme Court Ruling, saying it would lead to "Enforced Disappearances." "Other countries that have attempted to outsource their responsibilities have left people stranded in far away places, arbitrarily detained for years on end, and at risk of torture and other inhuman treatment, trafficking, or enforced disappearance," the Experts said in the U.N. Statement.

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem (R) said Saturday, that Iimmigration Authorities Arrested a total of 319 Migrants said to be in the U.S. illegally. She said that Authorities also Rescued some 14 Children from potential Forced Labor, Exploitation, and Trafficking, during the Operation.

"Our hearts are heavy for the grieving family of Jaime Alanis, who died from injuries sustained during a chaotic raid on Thursday," the "United Farm Workers Union" (UFW) said after the Raid. "We will do everything we can to support them. We continue to work with the hundreds of farm worker families navigating the aftermath of this violent raid."

The UFW Union Acknowledged in an earlier Statement that it had Recorded Complaints of Child Labor at the Site of the Raids, and noted that Farmworkers are Excluded from Basic Laws on Child Labor. "Unfortunately, it's not uncommon for teenagers to work in the field," the Union said. "Let's be clear: detaining and deporting children is not a solution to child labor."
