Mexico lifts criminal penalties for illegal immigrants
Mexico lifts criminal penalties for illegal immigrants
July 21, 2008
FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS
MEXICO CITY — Mexico will no longer jail illegal immigrants detained within its borders.
A measure that takes effect Tuesday eliminates jail times for illegal immigrants caught in Mexico. Most are crossing the country from Central America en route to the U.S.
Undocumented immigration will now be considered a minor offense, punishable by fines equal to US$100 to US$500. Illegal immigrants previously faced up to 10 years in prison, though most were simply deported.
Mexican legislators who backed the revision say Mexico’s previous penalties complicated efforts to lobby for better treatment of Mexican immigrants in the U.S.
Activists want more to be done to protect migrants in Mexico, where many are robbed and abused on their way north.

Next, they will try to pressure the United States to adopt similiar policies for dealing with mexico's illegals in our country. This policy isn't about illegals in mexico. It's about mexican illegals in our country!
At the end of the day, we could care less what mexico does with those found to be in their country illegally. They have a right to enforce their borders as does the United States!!Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)
