Yes. Then they will have to prove citizenship.

Under Trump’s last administration they arrested about 600 US citizens a year and deported about 70 US citizens a year.

Go 30 minutes south and you will see ghettos of subsidized housing with garbage everywhere, graffiti, and useless men hanging on the street corners. American born, all of them.

I hope this government now full of outcast rejects can gather some common sense and leave families alone who have been here for 30 years, never been in trouble and are self sufficient. Many of them save for years and retire back where they were born anyway

You’ve had 30 years to get legal documentation and failed. Sorry you’re still an illegal. Bye!

All MCPS schools were recently issued a 2 page summary document called Immigration Response Protocol for “what to do if ICE comes to your school.” Clearly the superintendent doesn’t think it’s a joke.

And that document will have to updated since the rules are different after yesterday.

Since when are Republicans against state’s rights?

I see you and I thank you for being who you are.

My kids are white citizens but go to school with 98% Hispanic kids. I don’t have any way to know their status but can reasonably assume some of them are undocumented or have parents who are undocumented. The thought of this happening to them AT SCHOOL makes me physically sick. ICE does not belong in elementary schools. I can’t believe this even has to be said. It’s bad for all the kids, not just the undocumented ones (or citizens with undocumented parents).

have you ever thought about the impact of having families involved in criminal activities in our schools? What does that do to the school environment where our kids are supposed to learn and grow? It’s concerning to think that our children might be surrounded by influences that aren’t conducive to a healthy and safe learning atmosphere. when resources get stretched by illegal activities, it's our tax dollars that are being diverted. This can take away from the funding and attention that should be supporting our family’s and children’s educational needs.

Here’s what illegal immigrants might be charged with if caught breaking the law:

Illegal Entry (8 U.S.C. § 1325) - For those who enter the U.S. without proper authorization, it’s a misdemeanor with up to 6 months in jail for first timers. Repeat offenses can lead to harsher penalties.

Reentry After Deportation (8 U.S.C. § 1326) - If someone returns to the U.S. after being deported, this felony can result in up to 2 years in prison, more if they have a criminal record.

Visa Fraud (18 U.S.C. § 1546) - Tampering with visa documents is a serious felony, punishable by up to 10 years in prison, and up to 25 years if linked to more severe crimes like drug trafficking or terrorism.

False Asylum Claims - Applying for asylum under false pretenses can lead to serious legal consequences, including charges of perjury or fraud. These are serious offenses that carry hefty penalties including prison time.

Your children are surrounded by American citizens who are criminals. Are you concerned about that. How about if IRS comes into school and audits your taxes in front of your kids?

Immigrants are less likely to commit a crime than an American citizen.

The things listed above are civil not criminal offenses…. Like driving 60 in a 55.

So no I’m not concerned.

If they’re here illegally then they’ve already committed a crime. Are you really this stupid?

At the beginning of my career I had to reassure many immigrant parents that their children were safe from ICE at school, until the policies were established. I think parents are alarmed until we know more—my predominantly immigrant school had man, many more absences than usual today. I do have a concern that high schools with predominantly immigrant students may be targeted, since the optics of older students being removed is very different than for younger ones.
