旧金山市参事菲尔德提增拨170万美元 扩充移民法律援助与快速响应网络

位于加州旧金山市县的旧金山市,旧金山市参事杰姬·菲尔德(JackieFielder)20日宣布一项提案,拟为本市移民法律服务与快速响应网络增拨170万美元,议案预计将提交市参事会表决。菲尔德是在联邦移民执法在湾区升温的背景下提出这一动议的:她在市政厅表示,白宫正部署移民与海关执法局(ICE)人员、在选举前恐吓与威吓弱势社区;数据显示,截至8月,湾区ICE逮捕人数较2月上升60%,加州多地也报告了新一波逮捕行动。
宣布前一天,ICE在旧金山市场南区(SoMa)拘留了米尔顿·拉莫斯·罗德里格斯(Milton RamosRodriguez),其家人提供的照片显示他在逮捕过程中受伤,市快速响应网络称他正接受旧金山公设辩护人办公室的法律咨询;另据报道,周末阿拉米达县还有一名被ICE逮捕者被送往奥克兰高地医院、至周二仍在接受治疗。菲尔德的提案将把新增经费投向移民法律服务与快速响应网络,但宣布时尚未公布参事会的具体表决时间。
移民权益倡导者指出,执法节奏加快已让一线法律团队应接不暇,这笔增拨能否及时到位,将影响被拘留者获得律师帮助的速度。
