Rep. Dan Goldman: Deportations Are Just Going to Make the Public Less Safe
‘It sends the message don’t do things the right way’
EXCERPT:
GOLDMAN: “These are people following lawful process, following the proper immigration proceedings for people who are seeking asylum, which is a lawful pathway. And instead, what's happening is they're being hoodwinked, essentially, and arrested. So these are people doing it the right way, who are nonviolent, noncriminal, and they're getting arrested. So what message does that send? Obviously, it sends the message, don't do things the right way, go further underground, don't appear in court, don't follow lawful process, don't pay your taxes, because many have work visas. And that's just going to make the public less safe.”
