    Pro-Amnesty Group to Host GOP Debate Watch Parties, Citizenship Drives



    by CAROLINE MAY
    27 Jan 2016

    An immigration activist group says it is organizing GOP primary debate watch parties and citizenship drives ahead of next week’s Iowa caucuses.

    Mi Familia Vota, a pro-amnesty group focused on increasing civic participation among immigrants, announced Wednesday that it will be hosting citizenship workshops in Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, Florida, and Texas to help immigrants apply for U.S. citizenship.

    Their goal is to increase immigrant participation in elections.

    “MFV will conduct citizenship workshops in six key states to assist eligible Legal Permanent Residents (LPRs) complete their appropriate paperwork to apply for U.S. citizenship, so that they can participate in the upcoming presidential election,” the group explained in its announcement.

    The group noted that there are an estimated 5,081,000 “Latino-eligible LPR” that could naturalize and vote in the coming election.

    “These LPRs can help elect candidates who will fight for the well-being of our families and communities,” Mi Familia Vota added.

    The citizenship workshop drives are scheduled to take place Saturday.

    Before the citizenship drives take place, however, the amnesty group says it will be hosting GOP debate watch parties in Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, and Texas for Thursday’s debate.

    The watch parties the group noted are intended “for the Latino and immigrant communities to hear, analyze, and discuss the positions of the frontrunners on key issues such as immigration, healthcare, and to see if they finally take up additional issues important to all voters, such as education, workers’ rights, and the environment.”

    Even LPR's who commit certain levels of crime can be deported. Once they are citizens, though, it is much harder to do that.

    "A primary purpose of U.S. immigration laws is to control the number and type of non-citizens who can be in the country. Among other things, these laws outline conduct that can disqualify non-citizens from getting permission to enter or remain in the U.S.

    A key mechanism for enforcing the law against non-citizens already in the country is through their deportation. Under the law, one way such actions are justified is when the individual involved has been found to have committed various crimes. This report focuses on what are called "aggravated felonies" -- a single part of these laws. The subject of aggravated felonies is important because it is little understood outside a small community of immigration lawyers, judges and scholars, and yet affects the lives of tens of thousand of non-citizens who have entered the country legally."
