1 day ago
Immigration lawyers say arrests of Afghan immigrants are increasing in the wake of a shooting that killed two National Guard members in Washington, D.C. The suspect in the attack is an Afghan national.
Reports indicate roughly two dozen recent arrests, mostly in Northern California. Those who work with
Afghan communities warn that the enforcement surge amounts to collective punishment for a single individual’s actions.
The federal government has also introduced sweeping new immigration measures following the attack, citing security concerns.
