A New Bill Would Provide Free Legal Representation For Asylum-Seekers Who Need It

Maryland Rep. Anthony Brown and other Democrats are planning to introduce legislation that would ensure “vulnerable populations” seeking asylum receive legal representation in their immigration cases as President Donald Trump continues to crack down on immigration to the US.

The proposed bill, provided in advance to BuzzFeed News, would guarantee legal counsel for asylum-seekers under age 21 and seniors older than 60, those who identify as LGBTQ, pregnant and nursing individuals, and those with special religious considerations.

The Equal Justice for Immigrants Act of 2019 would also allow asylum applicants to stay in the country throughout their court proceedings. Under the new $720 million proposal, only US Citizenship and Immigration Services employees would screen applicants, reversing a recent Trump administration decision to train Customs and Border Protection agents to conduct credible-fear interviews.

The bill will be unveiled publicly later Tuesday, a day after the administration doubled down on its attempts to restrict immigration by announcing that the US will end asylum protections for people traveling from South and Central America through Mexico trying to enter the United States. The new regulation would require people to seek asylum in the first country they reach outside of their own, barring asylum for any who enter a third country en route to the US.

So, not only is it all about paying for illegals and such, it delves into social justice warrioring. And, yes, Brown definitely wants the citizens to pay for these illegals

A day after the Trump administration announced new plans to end asylum protections for people traveling from South and Central America through Mexico, Congressman Anthony G. Brown (MD-04), a first generation American and former Army JAG Officer, introduced the Equal Justice for Immigrants Act to extend the guaranteed right to counsel to all people in the immigration court system. By striking the “no expense to the government” provision in The Immigration and Nationality Act, the bill would guarantee all indigent persons in the immigration court system the right to request government-appointed counsel to represent them in immigration court proceedings.

You get to pay for people who have violated our laws. Heck, this would apply even to those who have been ordered out by federal immigration judges

“The President’s attacks on America’s immigrant communities are more effective when people in our broken immigration system do not have a guaranteed right to counsel,” said Congressman Anthony Brown. “By providing legal representation, ending the ‘Remain in Mexico’ policy, and increasing transparency in the adjudication and appeals processes, Congress can equip America’s immigrant communities with a legal defense strong enough to withstand the Trump administration’s most craven, inhumane policies.

In other words, Open Borders and amnesty for all.

The weird thing is that there is so little press on this. Look it up. Almost no stories. It’s almost like the Dem controlled media is saying “whoa, whoa, guys, it’s hard enough lying to people that the Democratic Party isn’t open borders when you’re trotting out stuff like this.” On section talks about protecting anyone who is a witness or victim of a crime. First, any illegal or asylum seeker could make that claim without proof. Second, what about American citizens who have been victims of illegal alien crime? Also, the section about representation for unaccompanied minors will just embolden people to send their children on long, arduous, dangerous treks to the U.S. Good job, Anthony!
