El Centro de Derechos de los Inmigrantes de Michigan (MIRC) Denuncia Rescisión de Póliza de Áreas Protegidas del ICE

Poner fin a las Protecciones Amenazara a las Víctimas de Emergencias y Violencia, los Niños, y las Comunidades Religiosas

La semana pasada, la administración Trump rescindió una póliza de larga duración que desaprobaba la mayoría de las acciones de aplicación de la ley cerca de lugares sensibles. Desde 2011, el Departamento de Seguridad Nacional (DHS) ha mantenido una instrucción que exige al Servicio de Inmigración y Control de Aduanas (ICE) que se abstenga de aplicar la ley de inmigración en zonas como escuelas y lugares donde se reúnen niños, centros de atención médica, lugares religiosos, centros de servicios sociales y refugios donde las personas buscan ayuda en situaciones de emergencia y para escapar de la violencia, y también en ceremonias y manifestaciones religiosas o civiles.

El Centro de Derechos de los Inmigrantes de Michigan (MIRC) condena esta acción de la administración Trump, diseñada para provocar miedo entre las comunidades de inmigrantes. La póliza de protección exigía que los agentes entendieran las actividades que ocurren en lugares sensibles, y “la importancia de esas actividades para el bienestar de las personas y las comunidades de las que forman parte, y el impacto que una acción coercitiva de ejecución tendría en la disposición de las personas a estar en el área protegida y recibir o participar en los servicios o actividades esenciales que ocurren allí.” La póliza reconocía que ésta «es una determinación que requiere el ejercicio del discernimiento”. Esta capa de protección significaba que las comunidades podían centrarse en la oración, la curación y el aprendizaje en lugar de preocuparse por las acciones de ejecución en estos lugares limitados. La eliminación de esta póliza podría poner en peligro la seguridad y la salud pública.

También es importante no exagerar el impacto de este cambio. Las agencias encargados de hacer cumplir la ley, incluido el ICE, generalmente planifican operaciones centradas en personas específicas, en vez de en poblaciones generales. Aunque este enfoque pueda cambiar, MIRC no interpreta la rescisión de esta póliza como una señal de que los lugares anteriormente sensibles vayan a ser ahora el centro de operaciones de aplicación de la ley generalizadas en nuestra región.

Junto con la rescisión de la póliza de áreas protegidas, ICE también describió una guía para los agentes que participan en operaciones de ejecución de la ley dentro y alrededor de los edificios judiciales. La nueva guía establece que estas operaciones son contra personas específicas, pero puede incluir a los que no son ciudadanos con una previa orden de expulsión. La agencia también sigue desaconsejando las acciones de ejecución de leyes de inmigración civil relacionadas con los edificios judiciales dedicados a procedimientos no criminales, como la corte de familia.

Las comunidades deben ser conscientes de que varias protecciones legales siguen existiendo a pesar de la eliminación de esta póliza. Las personas siguen estando protegidas por la cuarta enmienda contra los registros/búsquedas no razonables. En la mayoría de los casos, los espacios privados de los lugares que ya no se consideran sensibles pueden seguir solicitando que los agentes encargados de ejecutar la ley demuestren que tienen la debida autoridad legal (como una orden de registro/búsqueda) que les permite entrar en las zonas sensibles. Las personas presentes en esos lugares también están protegidas por la quinta enmienda y tienen derecho a guardar silencio. Sin embargo, hay que resaltar que, debido a que Michigan se encuentra a menos de 100 millas de la frontera, la Oficina de Aduanas y Protección Fronteriza de EE.UU. (CBP) tiene autoridad legal especial para registrar a personas sin estatus legal en autobuses, trenes y barcos. Además, los sobrevivientes de la violencia doméstica y sexual tienen protecciones estatutarias específicas con respecto a la aplicación de la ley en relación con los procedimientos judiciales asociados con la huida de la violencia.

Esta guía de recursos resalta las recomendaciones para los lugares de la comunidad afectados. Los inmigrantes en Michigan que tengan preguntas sobre sus derechos pueden consultar los recursos “conozca sus derechos” del MIRC en bit.ly/MIRCKYR o llamando a (734) 239-6863.

Centro de Derechos de Inmigrantes de Michigan (MIRC) es un centro de recursos legales en todo el estado para las comunidades de inmigrantes de Michigan que trabaja para construir un Michigan próspero donde las comunidades de inmigrantes experimenten equidad y pertenencia. El trabajo de MIRC se basa en tres pilares: servicios legales directos, defensa sistémica y participación y educación de la comunidad. michiganimmigrant.org

MIRC Denounces Rescission of ICE Protected Areas Policy

End of Protections Threatens Children, Victims of Emergencies and Violence, and Religious Communities

Last week the Trump administration rescinded a longstanding policy that disfavored most enforcement actions around sensitive locations. Since 2011, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has maintained guidance requiring Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to refrain from immigration enforcement actions in areas such as schools and places where children gather, health care facilities, places of worship, social service and shelter facilities where people seek aid in emergency situations and to escape violence, as well as religious or civil ceremonies and demonstrations.

The Michigan Immigrant Rights Center (MIRC) condemns this action from the Trump administration designed to stoke fear among immigrant communities. The protective policy prompted agents to understand the activities that take place in sensitive locations, and “the importance of those activities to the well-being of people and the communities of which they are a part, and the impact an enforcement action would have on people’s willingness to be in the protected area and receive or engage in the essential services or activities that occur there.” The policy acknowledged this “is a determination that requires the exercise of judgment.” This layer of protection meant that communities could focus on prayer, healing, and learning rather than worry about enforcement actions in these few places. Doing away with the policy may endanger public safety and health. 

It is also important not to overstate the impact of this change. Law enforcement agencies, including ICE, generally plan operations that are focused on specific individuals, rather than general populations. While that approach may change, MIRC does not interpret the rescission of this policy to signal that previously sensitive locations are now going to be the focus of generalized enforcement operations in our region. 

In tandem with rescinding the protected areas policy, ICE also outlined guidance to officers engaging in enforcement operations in and around courthouses. The new guidance states that such operations are against targeted individuals but can include noncitizens with a prior removal order. The agency also continues to discourage civil immigration enforcement actions associated with courthouses dedicated to non-criminal proceedings, such as family court. 

Communities should be aware that several legal protections remain in place despite the removal of the protected areas policy. Individuals are still protected by the Fourth Amendment from unreasonable searches. In most cases, private spaces in areas that are no longer considered sensitive locations may still request that enforcement agents show they have proper legal authority (such as a search warrant) allowing them to enter sensitive areas. People in those areas are also protected by the Fifth Amendment and have the right to remain silent. It should be noted, however, that because Michigan is within 100 miles of the border, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) has special legal authority to search for individuals without lawful status on buses, trains, and boats. Additionally, survivors of domestic and sexual violence have specific statutory protections regarding enforcement around courthouse proceedings associated with escaping violence. 

This resource guide highlights recommendations for affected community locations. Immigrants in Michigan who have questions about their rights can consult MIRC’s Know Your Rights resources at bit.ly/MIRCKYR or call (734) 239-6863. 

Michigan Immigrant Rights Center (MIRC) is a statewide legal resource center for Michigan’s immigrant communities that works to build a thriving Michigan where immigrant communities experience equity and belonging. MIRC’s work is rooted in three pillars: direct legal services, systemic advocacy, and community engagement and education. michiganimmigrant.org
