"content": "\u003cp>\u003cem>Updated at 1 p.m., Thursday, May 16\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>President Trump announced an immigration proposal on Thursday that would dramatically reshape the legal immigration system in the United States, prioritizing merit-based immigration over family ties and asylum-seekers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan \"puts jobs, wages and safety of American workers first,\" Trump said in the White House Rose Garden. \"We must implement an immigration system that will allow our citizens to prosper for generations to come.\" \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan does not address the pressing challenge of what to do about the estimated 11 million people currently in the country illegally, one of the core issues that has animated Trump's presidency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The speech was notably softer in tone for a president who has often used harsh language when describing immigrants.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser, Jared Kushner, has been quietly working on the plan for months and briefed Republican senators on the details Tuesday. A senior administration official, who spoke to reporters Wednesday on the condition that his name not be used, said the proposal was a \"good faith effort\" intended to unify Republicans and start a discussion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Right now, this is the Trump plan and we're hoping this will become the Republican plan,\" the official said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMbmQMrANic\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan, as described by the administration official, would prioritize merit-based immigration, limiting the number of people who could get green cards by seeking asylum or based on family ties. But it would keep immigration levels static, neither increasing or decreasing the number of people allowed to legally enter the U.S. each year. Here are the elements of the proposal as described to reporters:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Securing the border:\u003c/strong> Finishing the border wall\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Protecting American wages: \u003c/strong>Stemming the flow of low-wage labor\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Attract and retain the best and brightest immigrants\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Prioritize nuclear families: \u003c/strong>It would limit family members who can come to the country to children and spouses\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Import labor for critical industries\u003c/strong>\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>\u003cstrong>Preserve humanitarian values:\u003c/strong> Keep asylum system, but limit it\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Democrats criticized the plan, which House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said was “dead on arrival.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I want to say something about the word that they use, merit,\" Pelosi said. \"It is really a condescending word. Are they saying family is without merit? Are they saying most of the people that ever came to the United States in the history of our country are without merit because they don’t have an engineering degree? Certainly we want to attract the best to our country and that includes many people from many parts of society.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement comes as the Trump administration is struggling to deal with a dramatic increase in asylum-seekers trying to enter the U.S. along the southern border, creating what many are now calling a humanitarian crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/02/15/695253043/trump-declares-national-emergency-to-help-fund-southern-border-wall\">President Trump declared a national emergency\u003c/a> to go against the wishes of Congress and shift funds to build the border wall he promised during his presidential campaign. White House aides see this as an ideal moment to try again to reshape the immigration system and enhance border security, something that requires congressional buy-in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='immigration' label='More KQED immigration coverage']Democrats are unlikely to support any immigration proposal that doesn't also address the young people who came to the U.S. as children and are now here illegally, known as Dreamers. Trump moved to eliminate the Obama-era program to give them work permits and protection from deportation, and the program is now in limbo pending court action.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The last time Trump and his White House proposed an immigration overhaul, it included a path to citizenship for Dreamers. While potentially more detailed, this proposal is less comprehensive than previous offers by Trump and his administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about this omission, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Thursday: \"Because it's a serious program, it's not included. Every single time that we have put forward or anyone else has put forward any type of immigration plan and it's included DACA, it's failed. It's a divisive thing. Certainly something to discuss and look at and address, but this plan is focused on fixing a different part of the immigration system.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>DACA has registered strong bipartisan support among voters: \u003ca href=\"https://news.gallup.com/poll/235775/americans-oppose-border-walls-favor-dealing-daca.aspx\">A 2018 Gallup poll\u003c/a> found that 83% of Americans backed giving citizenship to DACA recipients.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) said Trump's plan was \"more-of-the-same\" — one that cuts family visas, guts the asylum system and funds a failed border wall — and left out those in the country on conditional status, such as Dreamers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This immoral immigration plan helps only those in the lap of privilege and leaves families in the cold,\" Angelica Salas, CHIRLA's executive director, said in a statement. \"Most importantly, we need to affirm, in no uncertain terms, that migration is not a matter of deserving — that it is a human right, not a conferred privilege. Everyone has the right to seek safety and a better life for themselves and their family, and we should aim for a fair process that lets them do that.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/RepBarbaraLee/status/1129100915854794752\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., a close ally to Trump, said the proposal was purposely narrow by not addressing those in the country already.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't think it's designed to get Democratic support as much as it is to unify the Republican party around border security,\" said Graham, who characterized it more as a \"negotiating position\" than a legislative proposals. \"This is what we want on border security, this is what we want on merit-based immigration, and then we'll have to sit down and find common ground on the 11 million.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Graham was involved in the last major bipartisan effort to overhaul immigration in 2013. It passed the Senate but failed in the House. Trump's proposal has zero chance of becoming law without bipartisan support. At the moment, it isn't clear whether it has Republican buy-in, much less Democrats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And the proposal is likely to run into trouble from the right, too, because it doesn't restrict legal immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"This bill will only get worse. As a starting point, it's not acceptable,\" said Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Krikorian wants to see the level of legal immigration reduced and is concerned that the Trump proposal doesn't even start by calling for a cut in immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='border' label='More KQED coverage of the U.S.-Mexico border']\"I don't think any of them really understands how important it is to his voters that there be some acknowledgement that numbers need to come down,\" said Krikorian. \"Is it an actual legislative vehicle or is it a campaign statement?

But it would keep immigration levels static, neither increasing or decreasing the number of people allowed to legally enter the U.S. each year.

Are they saying family is without merit? Are they saying most of the people that ever came to the United States in the history of our country are without merit because they don’t have an engineering degree? Certainly we want to attract the best to our country and that includes many people from many parts of society.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The announcement comes as the Trump administration is struggling to deal with a dramatic increase in asylum-seekers trying to enter the U.S. along the southern border, creating what many are now calling a humanitarian crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Earlier this year, \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2019/02/15/695253043/trump-declares-national-emergency-to-help-fund-southern-border-wall\">President Trump declared a national emergency\u003c/a> to go against the wishes of Congress and shift funds to build the border wall he promised during his presidential campaign.

While potentially more detailed, this proposal is less comprehensive than previous offers by Trump and his administration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked about this omission, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said Thursday: \"Because it's a serious program, it's not included. Every single time that we have put forward or anyone else has put forward any type of immigration plan and it's included DACA, it's failed. It's a divisive thing.

And so far he has not followed through.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Halting cross-border traffic with one of the nation’s biggest trading partners could do serious damage to the U.S. economy, including industries located far from Mexico.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Retailers in San Diego got a small taste of that last November, when members of a migrant caravan charged the border and U.S. officials closed one border crossing in response. While that shutdown lasted only a few hours, it came on what should have been one of the busiest shopping days of the year. And the fallout was severe, costing local merchants an estimated \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/2018/11/29/671996734/temporary-shutdown-of-u-s-mexico-border-had-large-economic-impact-for-businesses\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$5.3 million in lost sales\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I easily, easily lost between $3,500 to $4,500 just that day,” said Louie Saloumi, who runs a churro stand in an outlet mall just north of the border that caters to Mexican shoppers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saloumi said if the border were closed for a full week, he’d be out of business.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That mall would be a ghost town,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Closing the entire U.S. border with Mexico would also put the brakes on more than $1.6 billion worth of goods that cross back and forth every day, including 50 million pounds of fresh Mexican produce that now fills 100 warehouses in Nogales, Ariz. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One importer warned that the U.S. would run out of avocados in three weeks, but guacamole is the least of it. Fresh tomatoes, peppers, melons and eggplant for the whole country would soon be in short supply. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Probably over half of what most consumers put in their shopping bag when it comes to fresh produce, they would find reduced quantities and higher prices,” said Lance Jungmeyer, president of the Fresh Produce Association of the Americas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Trump administration has already announced plans to halt truck traffic through Nogales on Sundays, as customs officers who typically staff the border crossing there are reassigned to deal with the influx of Central American migrants. If that shutdown extends to other days of the week, Jungmeyer worries some people will be out of work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='immigration' label='The latest immigration news']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s jobs that depend on moving goods back and forth every day. And if that’s not moving, those people are laid off,” Jungmeyer said. “That means those people are not able to keep the lights on in their own homes and to put groceries in their own refrigerators. So it gets really dicey, really quick.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The effects aren’t limited to the border region. Mexico is a critical supplier for companies throughout the U.S., including the highly integrated auto industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t just trade with each other. We’re making things together,” said Kristin Dziczek, vice president of the Center for Automotive Research in Michigan. “Mexico is a source of 37 percent of all imported auto parts to the U.S. Every vehicle has Mexican parts in it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>U.S. assembly plants are especially dependent on Mexico for some critical parts such as wiring harnesses. Without them, those plants would soon grind to a halt. And that in turn would idle domestic parts makers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ll see auto production in the U.S. shut down pretty quickly.

"content": "\u003cp>The Social Security Administration may be the latest front in the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency is reviving the controversial practice of \u003ca href=\"https://www.ssa.gov/employer/notices.html\">sending “no match” letters\u003c/a> to businesses across the country, notifying them when an employee’s Social Security number doesn’t match up with official records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[documentcloud url=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/5784068-EmployerCorrectionRequest.html\" responsive=true height=800]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That may sound innocuous. But these no-match letters are expected to set off alarm bells. That’s what happened when they arrived in the mail back in the mid-2000s.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was a scare tactic,” said Julie Pace, an employment lawyer at the Cavanagh Law Firm in Phoenix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Back then, as now, the federal government was trying to crack down on unauthorized workers. Pace understands the need to keep accurate records. But she thinks these letters were also intended to threaten employers who might have undocumented workers on the payroll.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They were like the very old school formal government letter that scared you,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There are a lot of reasons someone’s Social Security number might not match: name changes or clerical errors, for example. But it can also mean that a worker is using a fake Social Security number. And when an employer gets one of these letters, it has to ask the worker to fix the problem.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s the federal government who is now questioning something, and we’re being the delivery boy so to speak in giving the message,” said Gary Gitlin, an in-house lawyer for Pro’s Ranch Market, a chain of grocery stores in Arizona.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had to let a lot of people go” when his company got no-match letters in the past, Gitlin said, “because either they were not able to reconcile the no-match or simply refused to deal with it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Labor unions and immigrant advocates \u003ca href=\"https://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=14887175\">took the issue to court\u003c/a> in the mid-2000s. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce complained that the government was trying to turn businesses into “\u003ca href=\"https://www.sfgate.com/news/article/Judge-blocks-effort-to-use-no-match-letters-to-2497844.php\">immigration cops\u003c/a>.” Eventually, the Obama administration stopped sending these letters in 2012.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Immigration Crackdown in California\" tag=\"immigration\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, they’re back. And so is the controversy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is part and parcel of an anti-immigrant agenda by the Trump administration,” said Marielena Hincapié, the executive director of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nilc.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Immigration Law Center\u003c/a>. “This fits squarely within its overall strategy of instilling fear and chaos among immigrant workers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Social Security Administration insists it is trying to improve the accuracy of its records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we cannot match the name and SSN reported on a W-2 to our records, we cannot credit earnings to a worker’s record,” said spokesman Mark Hinkle in a written statement. “When earnings are missing, the worker may not qualify for Social Security benefits he or she is due or the benefit amount may be incorrect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency declined an interview request. Its written statement doesn’t mention immigration at all. But immigration hard-liners say they are glad to see no-match letters return.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If an employee is using a stolen Social Security number, we think it’s important for relevant people to know,” said Dan Stein, president of the \u003ca href=\"http://fairus.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Federation for American Immigration Reform\u003c/a>, which advocates for lower levels of immigration. Stein says he has no sympathy for undocumented immigrants who are using fake Social Security numbers to work or for employers who have been looking the other way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Illegal immigration is ultimately everybody’s problem,” Stein said. “And one of the reasons why we’ve seen it blow out of control in the last 30-some years is because employers have not been willing to do their fair share in ensuring that American jobs go to American workers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But employers say it’s not their job to enforce immigration laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a very fine line for employers to walk and not get in trouble on either side of the line,” said Pace, the lawyer. “That’s the catch-22 that you sometimes see.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When no-match letters went out before, Pace asked for guidance from immigration authorities and from Justice Department lawyers, she says. And she got two different answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration authorities said employers should look at these letters as evidence that their employees are undocumented. But the Justice Department said not so fast: If you fire a worker based just on this letter, that could be discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sometimes I would get both agencies on the phone at once so they could try to get on the same page with direction on that,” Pace said. “Because they gave different direction from each agency.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This time around, the Social Security Administration has changed the wording on no-match letters to clearly say this is \u003cem>not\u003c/em> about immigration:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>IMPORTANT: This letter does not imply that you or your employee intentionally gave the government wrong information about the employee’s name or SSN. This letter does not address your employee’s work authorization or immigration status. You should not use this letter to take any adverse action against an employee, such as laying off, suspending, firing, or discriminating against that individual, just because his or her SSN or name does not match our records. Any of those actions could, in fact, violate State or Federal law and subject you to legal consequences.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Still, Pace has a feeling that some employers will overreact anyway. She has seen it happen before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

And so is the controversy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is part and parcel of an anti-immigrant agenda by the Trump administration,” said Marielena Hincapié, the executive director of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.nilc.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Immigration Law Center\u003c/a>. “This fits squarely within its overall strategy of instilling fear and chaos among immigrant workers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Social Security Administration insists it is trying to improve the accuracy of its records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If we cannot match the name and SSN reported on a W-2 to our records, we cannot credit earnings to a worker’s record,” said spokesman Mark Hinkle in a written statement. “When earnings are missing, the worker may not qualify for Social Security benefits he or she is due or the benefit amount may be incorrect.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The agency declined an interview request. Its written statement doesn’t mention immigration at all. But immigration hard-liners say they are glad to see no-match letters return.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If an employee is using a stolen Social Security number, we think it’s important for relevant people to know,” said Dan Stein, president of the \u003ca href=\"http://fairus.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Federation for American Immigration Reform\u003c/a>, which advocates for lower levels of immigration. Stein says he has no sympathy for undocumented immigrants who are using fake Social Security numbers to work or for employers who have been looking the other way.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Illegal immigration is ultimately everybody’s problem,” Stein said. “And one of the reasons why we’ve seen it blow out of control in the last 30-some years is because employers have not been willing to do their fair share in ensuring that American jobs go to American workers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But employers say it’s not their job to enforce immigration laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a very fine line for employers to walk and not get in trouble on either side of the line,” said Pace, the lawyer. “That’s the catch-22 that you sometimes see.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When no-match letters went out before, Pace asked for guidance from immigration authorities and from Justice Department lawyers, she says. And she got two different answers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Immigration authorities said employers should look at these letters as evidence that their employees are undocumented. But the Justice Department said not so fast: If you fire a worker based just on this letter, that could be discrimination.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Sometimes I would get both agencies on the phone at once so they could try to get on the same page with direction on that,” Pace said. “Because they gave different direction from each agency.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This time around, the Social Security Administration has changed the wording on no-match letters to clearly say this is \u003cem>not\u003c/em> about immigration:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>IMPORTANT: This letter does not imply that you or your employee intentionally gave the government wrong information about the employee’s name or SSN. This letter does not address your employee’s work authorization or immigration status. You should not use this letter to take any adverse action against an employee, such as laying off, suspending, firing, or discriminating against that individual, just because his or her SSN or name does not match our records. Any of those actions could, in fact, violate State or Federal law and subject you to legal consequences.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Still, Pace has a feeling that some employers will overreact anyway. She has seen it happen before.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv class=\"fullattribution\">Copyright 2019 NPR.

After a new police transparency law unsealed scores of internal affairs files, our reporters set out to examine these cases and the shadow world of police discipline. On Our Watch brings listeners into the rooms where officers are questioned and witnesses are interrogated to find out who this system is really protecting. Is it the officers, or the public they've sworn to serve?",
