by admin | Oct 2, 2018 | Latest NewsMayor Keisha Lance Bottoms Signs Executive Order Pertaining to Separation of Families ATLANTA – Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms issued the following statement. “I, like many others, have been horrified watching the impact of President Trump’s zero tolerance immigration policy on children and families. My personal angst has been compounded by the City of Atlanta’s long-standing agreement with the U. S. Marshall’s Office to house ICE detainees in our City jail. While this arrangement may seem hypocritical to my personal stance, the reality of the detention of those seeking legal status in our country is most often not if they are detained, but where they will be held. As we work as a nation to end this despicable immigration policy, the City of Atlanta will not take the risk of being complicit in the separation of families at the border. Thus, I have signed an Executive Order that prohibits the City jail from accepting any new ICE detainees. “I am concerned that the City’s refusal to accept detainees will result in individuals being sent to private, substandard, for-profit facilities in the state, as these facilities do not offer publicly-funded access to legal representation that may help detainees successfully challenge their immigration status, but the inhumane action of family separation demands that Atlanta act now. “On behalf of the people of Atlanta, I am calling upon the Trump Administration and Congress to enact humane and comprehensive measures that address our broken immigration system. “I have instructed City officials to closely monitor this situation and ensure that Atlanta continues to fulfill our legacy of inclusion, compassion and tolerance.” Click here to view the Executive Order.

On the topic of immigration, it was a competition for the candidate with the toughest policy. On Wednesday, May 16, Michael Williams, Republican candidate for Governor of Georgia, began his Deportation Bus Tour through several sanctuary cities in Georgia. The bus tour gained immediate attention following a video advertisement which features both Michael Williams and the bus. The bus is labeled on the back with “Follow me to Mexico” and “DANGER! Murders, rapists, kidnappers, child molestors, and other criminals on board.” Despite Williams escalated campaign days before the primary election, which was held on May 22, he did not advance toward further elections. Instead, the results have pitted two other Republican candidates, Brian Kemp and Casey Cagle, against each other in a runoff election which will be held on July 24. Cagle and Kemp are no exception to the intense debate about immigration reform. In May, a dispute between Cagle and the City of Decatur broke out on the matter of sanctuary cities. Cagle, the leading Republican candidate for governor, accused the City of Decatur of not requiring local law enforcement officers to report undocumented immigrants to ICE. The feud has not come to a resolution. Kemp garnered public attention from a campaign ad titled “So Conservative.” In the video, Kemp emphasises his key policies, including immigration. “I’ve got a big truck just in case I need to round...
