While the U.S. federal government is working to detain and deport undocumented immigrants, some U.S. states and cities have started legal funds to defend them, opening up a new front in the conflict over immigration.
About 13 jurisdictions have joined a network to expand legal representation for immigrants facing detention and deportation — the ultimate line of defense, officials said.
How is this legal? Isnt this aiding and abetting a criminal in committing AND evading prosecution for an intentional crime?
Funny how the states and cities don’t furnish funds for American citizens who can’t afford an attorney in civil matters?
