NIPNLG, Feb. 7, 2017 - "On February 20, 2017, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) issued two memoranda with the purpose of implementing the President’s Executive Orders from January 25, 2016, titled Implementing the President’s Border Security and Immigration Enforcement Improvements Initiatives (“Immigration and Border Enforcement Memo”) and Enforcement of the Immigration Laws to Serve the National Interest, (“National Interest Memo”). In addition, on the same day, DHS published a number of Question and Answer Factsheets pertaining to its memoranda and immigration enforcement going forward. Taken together, the DHS memoranda, factsheets, and Q+A documents (herein “DHS Policies”) represent a major shift and escalation in immigration enforcement. The purpose of this community advisory is to provide our legal and policy analysis on key changes in immigration enforcement resulting from these DHS policies. While we do provide some legal summary of the memoranda, this advisory is not intended to be a comprehensive summary of DHS policy changes. Instead, this advisory focuses on providing policy analysis on those topic areas that we believe will most impact community defense strategies and offers key tips and suggestions."
