Did you hear about Iowa's new anti immigrant law?
00:02
I actually have, well,
00:03
apparently it makes it a felony for any non citizen to enter
00:06
Iowa if they've ever been deported.
00:08
Yeah. And it also makes it a crime to be in
00:10
the state. If you've ever been denied entry to the US
00:13
the crimes can carry up to 10 year prison sentence.
00:17
Imagine living there right now as an immigrant or as in any
00:20
of these kind of situations.
00:22
Some say the law is so broad,
00:24
it may even apply to those with lawful immigration status.
00:28
That's the scary part again,
00:29
like you think you're safe.
00:34
the Department of Justice said that it would sue the state unless
00:36
it agreed to not enforce a law by this week.
00:38
But Iowa's Attorney General said that they will not back down.
00:42
This law is just a copy and paste of Texas's anti immigration
00:46
law. SB four Texas's law is still paused as the courts
00:50
decide whether it is constitutional because immigration law is a federal matter
00:56
Iowa's law may also end in a court battle and just
00:59
like in Texas, Iowa's law opens up people to all kinds
01:02
of racial profiling. What is it with all this across the
01:05
nation? The freaking they want the power and the elections to
01:13
are right on the corner.
01:14
Could it be something with that?
01:15
Even police say the law is going to be impossible to enforce
01:20
and that they have no access to a person's immigration history,
01:24
cops are going to end up stopping people who look undocumented or
01:29
like they have been deported.
01:31
And what's crazy is Iowa's governor is blaming Biden for this.
01:34
He's saying that he had to you know,
01:36
pass this law because Biden is refusing to enforce the laws
01:41
that are already on the books for immigration.
01:44
So he had no other choice apparently according to him.
