Democrats built the blueprint for ICE's deportation program and architected the law that enabled it. Clinton's IIRAIRA bill literally introduced expedited removal procedures and created the concept of 'administrative warrants', routinely used by CBP/ICE today. Without the IIRAIRA, removal would be substantially harder. | ||

IIRIRA was not a 'Clinton' bill. It was initially drafted by Lamar Smith (r) of Texas (HR 2202) and subsequently attached to an appropriations bill (HR 2610), and passed with a bipartisan veto-proof majority. https://www.congress.gov/bill/104th-congress/house-bill/2202 https://www.congress.gov/bill/104th-congress/house-bill/3610 It's easier than ever to check legal assertions before you post instead of posting incorrect information. | ||
