MPs against criminal immigrants receive the committee in order according to the earlier “No” voice

Salt Lake City-a Legislate, which is aimed at criminal immigrants here

The judiciary, law enforcement and criminal justice committed, voted 6: 3 on Friday to recommend HB226 positively to make it easier to illegally deport criminal immigrants, and the full Senate is now going into account. The lawsuit reverses a 4: 3 votes against the measure of the committee members on Tuesday.

After the vote last Tuesday, Rep. Candice Pierucci, R-Herriman, lowered a number of provisions of HB226, based on some of the concerns expressed in the previous hearing. Remarkably, she has bordered the list of class A offenses, which is now punished with one day in prison – one day from 364 days – until the most serious crimes, she said with sexual abuse and attack. The period of one year for the applicable crimes corresponds to the federal immigration policy, which enables the deportation of immigrants, which were convicted of at least 365 days, which enlarges the pool of deportable immigrants, one of the main objectives of HB266.

Pierucci removed a provision that had increased the term for certain drunk crimes to one year, which was based on the deportation policy of the federal insurance. She also suspected a section that would have exposed to non -profit organizations that work with immigrants with fines if they had been convicted of illegal crimes in connection with the transport of immigrants.

The HB266 would partly reversed in 2019, which had reduced the maximum prison sentence due to class A offenses to 364 days. The measures taken at this point to determine the risk of deportation by one -year sentences. But Senator Brady Brammer, R-Pleasant Grove, who voted for a cheap recommendation, found that the public settings have shifted since then.

The number of deportations has decreased in recent years that are concerns about illegal immigration “and many people feel quite worry about it,” he said. That the legislature can shift the course after six years if such a change “is not shocking for people”.

Senator Heidi Balderree, R-Saratoga Springs, praised the “very tailor-made” list of class A's offenses, which would be subject to the one-year prison sentence. This includes certain attacks against law enforcement officers who threaten violence against school workers or healthcare providers, stalking, child abuse, abuse of an endangered adult, negligent murder, sexual abuse of a minor and more.

On the other hand, Senator Luz Escamilla, D-Salzsee City, took care of the fact that immigrants are exposed to legally constant residents, refugees, those with student visa and other increased deportation threat according to HB266. She voted against the measure and found that GOP legislators are illegal in Utah

If you add a day to the maximum sentence of class A to match the federal law, “a completely different effect for legally presented people is,” she said. “I'm going to be right because this is not the audience that we have discussed all the time.”

HB266 urges the law enforcement authorities in Utah to contact federal immigration officials Pierucci said that there is no way for the legislators of the state to work out an exception that legally arrested the deportation of immigrants here due to the offense of class A, which would be subject to the season of the year.

“And that doesn't exist. I can tell you that I spent six months with it,” she said. However, this restriction is the reason why it has restricted the list of applicable crimes.

Several lawyers said on Tuesday and Friday against the HB266 because they legally affected immigrants here. “This is an important problem in which we address a group that is lawful here,” said Adam Crayk, lawyer of immigration.

HB266 received a cheap 62-9 voice in the Utah House on February 12th.
