To the editor: Whereas some Democrat leaders have been rising a spine in supporting immigrant communities towards the continued Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids, I couldn’t assist however suppose that a lot of the struggling skilled by immigrants immediately might have been prevented (“Trump officers vow to accentuate immigration raids regardless of authorized challenges, dangerous polls, public backlash,” July 14). Allow us to always remember that from 2009-2010, the Democrats managed each the presidency and Congress however didn’t go immigration reform. President Obama’s advisors would later state that he was too busy making an attempt to avoid wasting the U.S. financial system.
As we speak, the Democrats certain might use the thousands and thousands of future voters they could have gotten had they handed immigration reform again then. Certainly, maybe these thousands and thousands of latest voters may need made the distinction for Democrats in 2016 and 2024. As an alternative, Obama would go away workplace with the nickname “deporter-in-chief.”
