声明说,这些非法移民中,已受到移民法庭裁决并接收到遣返令的人将被遣返,其他人将进入遣返程序。
美国移民和海关执法局代理局长马修·阿尔本斯当天表示,被逮捕者的子女将被送至其亲属处或其他家庭。
What a waste of govt resources: Feds treated
these raids like they were going in Branch Davidian compound: 600
officers to arrest 680 unarmed individuals. Imagine if 600 teachers
or 600 engineers to fix the closed bridges had descended on
Mississippi.https://t.co/HZI5BR4ucj— Elise Jordan (@Elise_Jordan)

据美国媒体报道,特朗普政府在移民问题上立场强硬,主张通过加强移民执法、在美国南部沿美墨边界修建隔离墙等手段遏制非法移民。
今年6月,特朗普在社交媒体上说,美国移民和海关执法局将开始遣返“数百万名”以非法方式进入美国的移民。
“A tearful 13-year-old boy… waved goodbye
to his mother, a Koch worker, as he stood beside his father.”While the Trump admin does nothing about the racist rhetoric
against our community, they continue to separate families.https://t.co/HL7okU542p— RAICES (@RAICESTEXAS)

长期以来,移民问题是美国社会关注度高的一个话题,并在近期因得克萨斯州埃尔帕索市一起严重枪击事件进一步升温。本月3日,一名白人枪手袭击了埃尔帕索一家沃尔玛超市,造成22人死亡、20余人受伤,其作案动机被怀疑与反移民的种族主义有关。
