The United States has chosen a new category of illegal immigrants who will not be deported

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) announced that the agency will no longer deport illegal immigrants who are victims of crime. Writes about it Fox News.

“This policy update makes it easier for victims to cooperate with law enforcement, enhances U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) criminal investigation capabilities, and promotes confidence in the ICE agents and officers who enforce our laws,” said ICE Acting Director Tae Johnson.

“Through this approach, we minimize concerns that fears of deportation may impact the willingness and ability of non-citizen crime victims to contact law enforcement, participate in investigations and prosecutions, seek justice, and seek benefits,” he explained.

The agency said it would instead support "non-citizens, victims of crime" by offering them "access to immigration benefits."

“This new policy is designed to improve the ability of victims to seek justice against criminals, including in cases of human trafficking,” the press release said.

The policy change comes following a July 30 memorandum calling for a review of the agency's policy to ensure that ICE is guided by a “victim-centered approach”.

But America First Legal President Stephen Miller, who was a senior adviser to President Donald Trump, said the updated guidance would simply provide people with another "path to using our immigration system and staying illegally in our country."

Miller, among other things, expressed concern that an illegal immigrant might try to avoid deportation by simply saying that he had witnessed a crime.

"It's a very simple way to get amnesty - just say you witnessed a crime," Miller said.

“The only people who would benefit from this, since illegal immigrants are already largely protected, are those who have committed serious felonies or fraud themselves,” Miller suggested.

While America First Legal's president has made it clear that the agency has a place to protect victims of crime, he is confident that the updated policy will only weaken "the already fraudulent program that illegal immigrants and their defenders are using to illegally stay in the country."

"The political left continually tells us that illegal immigrants are essential to the functioning of our society, but the administration's position is that they are unwilling to cooperate with serious crime investigations unless they are granted amnesty," Miller said.

The story emerged the day after the agency became the subject of controversy when it was revealed earlier this year that Johnson granted temporary deportation postponement to an illegal immigrant who had a criminal record in New Jersey.

Internal emails obtained by reporters showed that the decision to delay the immigrant's deportation came on the same day that a left-wing immigration activist suggested the department keep him - citing the immigrant's status as a former DACA recipient and his marriage to a U.S. citizen who has a 2-year-old son .

Immigrant Marvin Jeresano-Peña was arrested for “robbery and simple assault” in 2015 and a year later convicted of intentionally receiving stolen property. Earlier, he was arrested for drug possession, and the judge said to deport him to Mexico in 2019.
