This November, Arizonans will consider a ballot measure that would make it a state crime to cross the Arizona-Mexico border illegally. If it passes, law enforcement would be authorized to arrest people suspected of crossing the border illegally, and state judges would be able to order deportations. House Concurrent Resolution 2060, which passed the Arizona House yesterday 31–29 in a party-line vote, argues that Arizona "is being 'actually invaded' as defined in article I, section 10" of the U.S. Constitution. Along with empowering law enforcement in the state to arrest undocumented immigrants ...

Washington (AFP) - The United States will temporarily close its Mexico border to asylum seekers from Wednesday, as President Joe Biden tries to neutralize his political weakness on migration ahead of November's election battle with Donald Trump. The 81-year-old Democrat signed a long-awaited executive order taking effect at midnight to "gain control" of the southern frontier with Mexico, after record numbers of illegal border crossings sparked concerns among voters. "I've come here today to do what the Republicans in Congress refuse to do -- take the necessary steps to secure our border," Bide...

It's been reported for months that President Joe Biden would issue a drastic executive order to address illegal border crossings, significantly restricting access to the asylum process if unauthorized arrivals at the U.S.-Mexico border hit a certain number. That action finally arrived today. "The entry of any noncitizen into the United States across the southern border is hereby suspended and limited," said Biden's order. When border encounters between ports of entry hit an average of 2,500 per day over a seven-day period, migrants will no longer be allowed to seek asylum unless they qualify f...

Depuis qu’elle est devenue Première ministre italienne, le principal défi de Giorgia Meloni a été de freiner l’immigration clandestine. Mais tenir la principale promesse de son programme politique a été particulièrement difficile compte tenu de la forte augmentation du nombre d’arrivées de migrants en provenance d’Afrique du Nord. En lançant sa campagne électorale au nom de son parti d'extrême droite, Frères d’Italie, Giorgia Meloni s’est attribuée le mérite d’avoir changé l’approche européenne en matière de migration. Si l’on regarde les données officielles des trois premiers mois de 2024, le...

Former President Donald Trump has promised to enact a wide range of restrictionist immigration policies if he wins the presidential race this year, but his most extreme proposal is to carry out "the largest domestic deportation operation in American history." In an interview last month with Time, Trump suggested that between 15 million and 20 million people could be targeted by the plan. The idea of mass deportations had buy-in from other contenders for the Republican presidential nomination, including former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, and Florida G...

In April, Oklahoma Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt signed House Bill 4156, an immigration crackdown law that criminalizes "impermissible occupation" in the state. Any immigrant who "enters and remains" in Oklahoma "without having first obtained legal authorization to enter the United States" could face jail time and be forced to leave the state. The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed a lawsuit against Oklahoma yesterday, arguing that H.B. 4156 "is preempted by federal law" and "violates the U.S. Constitution." The lawsuit is the latest entry in the ongoing battle between the federal government...

Have you tried getting a plumber in recently? So has Europe’s construction sector – without much luck. The sector needs to carry out a massive wave of renovations in the coming years to meet the EU’s climate goals. This includes changing gas boilers for heat pumps and insulating older buildings, all while keeping up with demand for new homes. Construction firms will need to recruit migrant workers because there aren’t nearly enough people with the necessary skills in domestic labour forces. But they’re being held back by immigration policies that aren’t fit for purpose. A rethink – including p...

Greek public prosecutor Ekaterini Tsironi has dismissed charges against nine Egyptian men accused of causing a shipwreck that killed hundreds of migrants last year, telling the court Greece lacked jurisdiction. Shortly after the trial opened in the southern city of Kalamata, Tsironi recommended that the charges be dismissed, saying that Greek jurisdiction could not be established because the overcrowded trawler sank outside Greek territorial waters. Nine men were due to go on trial, accused of causing the worst migrant shipwreck in the Mediterranean Sea for ten years. Human rights groups had a...
