THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 18, 2017
‘What are you doing to get ready for winter?’
“I’m getting all of
my gas appliances
checked. And one
needed to be fi xed!”
“I have a routine that
I follow to get ready.
I clean the gutters,
wrap the pipes,
put away the lawn
furniture, rake the
leaves …”
THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK
“We’re pretty much
prepared all the
time. We have a
100-year-old home,
and it’s always
drafty, so we have
lots of sweaters and
blankets. I like winter.”

Oregon sues to obtain stats on immigration arrests
Several states
press Trump
administration
By PARIS ACHEN
Capital Bureau
SALEM — Oregon has
joined nine other states in a
federal lawsuit against the
U.S. Department of Homeland
Security for failing to release
public information detailing
the detention and deportation
of immigrants.
The lawsuit, fi led Tuesday
in U.S. District Court for Mas-
sachusetts, claims that fed-
eral agencies have failed to
respond to requests within a
30-day statutory deadline and
are unlawfully withholding the
records.
“We value transparency
in Oregon — and we should
demand the same from the
federal government,” Ore-
Oregon Attorney General
Ellen Rosenblum
gon Attorney General Ellen
Rosenblum said in a statement.
“Americans have the right to
know how many immigrants
have been arrested — and
how many have been detained
— and we should be able to
review that critical informa-
tion in an expedited manner.”
A coalition of 10 attorneys
general in June submitted a
Freedom of Information Act
request to U.S. Immigration
and Customs Enforcement,
U.S. Citizenship and Immigra-
tion Services, and U.S. Cus-
toms and Border Protection.
The
request
sought
records related to recipients
of Deferred Action for Child-
hood Arrivals, arrests and
detentions of undocumented
immigrants at certain “sen-
sitive locations,” and ICE or
CBP detainer requests and
databases.
The DACA program, cre-
ated by executive order of
then-President Barack Obama,
allows recipients, also known
as “Dreamers,” to legally work
and attend school in the United
States.
Attorney General Jeff Ses-
sions announced in Septem-
ber that the Trump a dministra-
tion plans to dismantle DACA
in the next several months,
unless Congress enacts it
legislatively.
Federal agents have tar-
geted undocumented immi-
grants at “sensitive locations”
such as courthouses, schools,
places of worship and hospi-
tals, Massachusetts Attorney
General Maura Healey wrote
in the June request.
“The president’s execu-
tive orders and the steps taken
by the Department of Home-
land Security to implement
these orders have generated
new fears and uncertainties in
immigrant communities across
the country,” Healey wrote.
“Families are afraid to send
their children to school. People
are avoiding necessary medi-
cal treatment. Victims and wit-
nesses are not reporting crimes
or cooperating with state and
local law enforcement.”
The “chilling effect” of the
new policies “undercuts pub-
lic health, safety and welfare,”
and the Trump a dministration’s
lack of transparency surround-
ing enforcement is “exacerbat-
ing the fear in immigrant com-
munities,” she wrote.
U.S. Citizenship and Immi-
gration Services confi rmed
receipt of the request in July .
The agency noted that the
statutory time limits for ful-
fi lling the request could not
be met because of “unusual
circumstances,” and said it
would be necessary to extend
the deadline beyond the 10
days allowed in law, because
authorities would need to col-
lect data from fi eld offi ces.
The lawsuit claims fed-
eral agencies have not denied
the request but have withheld
details on circumstances that
prevent the disclosure. They
also have failed to provide con-
tact information for their FOIA
liaisons to discuss the request
or timeline for fulfi lling it,
according to the complaint.
The states sought the infor-
mation because the federal
government has intensifi ed
immigration enforcement and
expanded “the scope of peo-
ple targeted for enforcement,”
according to the complaint.
For example, arrests of immi-
grants have increased nearly
40 percent in just the fi rst four
months of 2017, according to
an ICE report.
“It is critical for … states to
understand the nature of fed-
eral immigration enforcement
activities and the effects of
these activities on the residents
and law enforcement agencies
of the respective states,” the
complaint states.
The other states joining in
the lawsuit are Massachusetts,
California, Hawaii, Iowa, Illi-
nois, Maryland, New York,
Washington and the District of
Columbia.
Oregon, along with several
other states, sued the Trump
a dministration in September to
save DACA. That complaint
alleges dismantlement of the
program represents a viola-
tion of the e qual p rotection
clause of the Constitution by
discriminating against DACA
recipients of Mexican origin.
So-called “Dreamers” from
Mexico make up 78 percent of
DACA recipients.
