Activists and organizations defending the rights of immigrants in response to the election promise by the President-elect, Joe Biden, to send to Senate an integral migration reform plan in the first 100 mandate days, to warn that the initiative could kill first no problem at least 10 Republican votes.
Asimismo, recognizes that the promiscuous efforts by the governing body have opened a dialogue that in the last four years has been closed only by President Donald Trump, also by the Republican Party.
“To begin with, we take the possibility of a discussion on reforming our migration system, as it has been for years impending Republicans,” said Clarissa Martinez, Univision Notice Vice President for Politics and Promotion of the United Nations NSA.
“Although public opinion has stood firm in support of migration reform, the Republican Party has blocked it. Without embarrassment, with this promise we will have the possibility of a discussion on which all issues, such as civil society, participate and that we will reach a solution that the Mayor responds ”, added.
Martínez dijo, además, que en segundo lugar “estamos vending que, al empezar su gobierno, Biden expond una vision no solo del immigration system di sebe repair, sino del papel que juegan los immigrantes en el pais, un rol que ha sido he has seen lions and hes living in the distance the supremacy of people in the last four years ”.
The reform of Biden
This March, the Vice President of Electa, Kamala Harris, said in a Exclusive interview with the periodical Ilia Calderón, co-presenter of the Univision Notice, that the presidential election migration plan includes a truck to the city for millions of undocumented, document that everything is being “prepared”.
The initiative includes protections for miles of DACA protected dreamers and also documented documents under the Temporary Protection Status (TPS), which tend to prioritize regularization as permanent legal residents (green card).
Harris also mentions that the project will include the restoration of migration policy, which in recent years has been reduced to a minimum.
The plan is similar to the one approved by the Senate on June 27, 2013, an initiative that includes a truck for the first to receive a temporary residence and, within 10 years, a permanent residence. Three years have passed since becoming a citizen.
Harris said the new plan would reduce the number of hopefuls this year to 13, depending on the Republican support for the Senate.
Civil pressure
The shortcomings of the Senado are in vogue. But there is confidence in the political maneuvering capacity on the part of Biden and Harris, who have integrated the Cámara Alta and will be part of the 20th century in the Casa Blanca.
“We will meet with the opportunity of a debate,” Martínez Dice. “It has an administration that recognizes the critical paper of immigrants and uses its power to look for a solution and summarize this vote on the votes of organizations and voters.”
“We will be ours, the civil society, the one that will demand solutions. This is the key point. “We have different ways to advance, for example, executive actions, distinctions proposed by those who deal with the distinct problems such as DACA, TPS and also a proposal that seeks to provide a course in the migration system”, explains.
Martínez’s optimism contrasts with the cauldron of Matt Adams, director of regs Northwest Immigrant Rights Project (Project of Derechos de Inmigrantes del Noroeste -NWIRP-). “For me it is not enough (Biden’s migration reform plan). The 2013 project approved by the Senate (which the Democrats as well as the reference) made a compromise, but did not hesitate to discuss the problems of the system “, indicated.
“Hacen falta más cosas. It is a good start, but we need more to restore the lives of the people who have documents in the United States, ”he said.
“Deberían will start immediately, since the first moment to make efforts, but the problem is that if the compromise of 2013 is very much in line with what is in opposition to immigration, because there are many important benefits to be achieved, this is when it comes to weight loss it’s much bigger because it’s got a lot of weight in our last four years ”.
“Haran lacks executive actions to eliminate the policies that Trump presented and rehabilitate the system. Biden has already acknowledged the BAN (prohibition on entering foreign countries), will try again the TPS for miles, programs will be canceled and there will be many actions that can be taken at the congress “, added.
The director agrees that “if you can do solo actions, you will need the cooperation of the Republicans to log a truck to the residence. Sin ese apoyo no habrá nada ”.
For Ben Monterroso, director of the organization Poder Latinx, Biden’s plan “is a breath of fresh air and life for our community. We trust that we will advance with this the Ocho group in 2013. And these Democrats have the control of the Chamber of Representatives ”.
The Ocho Group, made up of four Democratic and Republican senators, edited the M.744 Migration Reform Bill, which includes a life of citizenship for millions of documents in a space of 13 years. When the project was sent to Cámara Baja, Republicans rejected the proposal, stating that only those who had it would debate “part by part”, an offer that was immediately rejected by the Democrats.
