Plan for housing illegals in motels draws criticism

American Immigration Reform says the government seems to be moving "from detention to hospitality."
Wednesday, October 7, 2009


(UPI) - An immigration reform group is criticizing plans by the Obama administration to house illegal immigrants in converted hotels and nursing homes.
Spokesman Ira Mehlman of the Federation for American Immigration Reform says the government seems to be moving "from detention to hospitality," The Christian Science Monitor reported Wednesday.

"While you want people housed in appropriate facilities," Mehlman said, "these are not facilities designed to detain people."

Professor Doug Massey of Princeton University refers to the housing plan as creating "the new American gulag."

Some immigrant rights advocates welcome the administration's attempt to improve the conditions of detainees.

"These measures, albeit positive, will, at the end of the day, only relieve some of the suffering our community feels as they are torn apart by our unjust and inhumane immigration laws," said Jorge-Mario Cabrera of the Coalition for Humane Immigration Rights of Los Angeles.

I must be stupid what is positive about this?

Each room will probably set the goverment back a mere 3,000.00 per month. Wait I left out the definite costs of room service plus the sure to be needed repairs!

I have absolutley no problem with immigrant rights. After all, we're all immigrants. My problem is with illegal immigrants. The only right they should get is a U.S. forced labor camp that produces food for those U.S. citizens on welfare or a one way ticket to Afghanistan.
