In the News Congress Holds Hearing Into Raids

By February 14, 2008 8:17 PM

The House Immigration Subcommittee held hearings today into ICE misconduct during immigration raids. They heard U.S. citizens and permanent residents of Latino ancestry who testified that because of their Hispanic appearance they were harassed, arrested, and even deported by ICE.

Read the article and it will remind you of what happened on Long Island four months ago. ICE seems to have a dragnet out for Latinos, regardless of their immigration status. As we know from direct experience, being brown is enough to get a stop nowadays. Entire communities are put through the wringer in these chaotic raids.
