Bill Summary
Recognizing the psychological impact of immigration enforcement overreach on individuals, their families, and their community.
AI Summary
This resolution recognizes the profound psychological impact of immigration enforcement on individuals, families, and communities, highlighting several key concerns. The resolution notes that 66 percent of undocumented immigrants have lived in the U.S. for over a decade, with approximately 4.7 million mixed-status households involving 16.7 million people, including 5.5 million U.S.-citizen children living with undocumented family members. It criticizes the Trump administration's immigration enforcement tactics, including expanded detention capacity, increased arrests, and the use of expedited deportation, pointing out that 71.7 percent of those detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) have no criminal convictions. The resolution condemns these practices as causing significant psychological harm, including increased anxiety, hypervigilance, panic attacks, and social isolation among immigrant communities. It calls for congressional oversight of immigration enforcement, demands accountability for federal immigration officers, and requests that the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services study and address the mental health impacts on immigrant communities. Additionally, the resolution condemns specific administration officials and their policies while acknowledging the crucial role of nonprofit organizations in supporting immigrant communities.
