ILLEGAL: How America's Lawless Immigration Regime Threatens Us All.
Edition: First printing.
New York: Basic Books, (2020) dj. Hardcover first edition - An explanation of how the American immigration system ran off the rails and a proposal for a plan to reform it. Our current crisis has roots in early twentieth century white nativist politics, which began to reemerge in the 1980s. Since then, ICE and CBP have acquired bigger budgets and more power than any other law enforcement agency. This book argues how essential it is to reign in the powers of the current immigration regime and revive saner approaches based on existing law - otherwise we are all at risk. Notes, index. 261 pp. ISBN: 978-1541699847.
