287(g) Changes Hobble Enforcement
James R. Edwards tells Human Events readers how the Obama administration, despite extending 287(g) to more communities, is hobbling the program by restricting who can be deported. "[T]these changes fly in the face of Congress's original intent for the 287(g) program. There was never any requirement that 287(g) cases involve only actions against 'serious' criminals or even be limited to criminal aliens."
