Lawmakers Must Confront Racist History of Illegal Reentry Statute To Stop Perpetuating White Supremacy
AOKI, CILP, and SPLC file amicus brief in United States v. Carrillo-Lopez
Last Friday, the Center for Immigration Policy, the Aoki Center for Critical Race and Nation Studies, and the Southern Poverty Law Center filed an amicus brief in the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in United States v. Carillo-Lopez, a case involving a racial justice issue of enormous significance. Mr. Carrillo-Lopez, the defendant in the case, has argued that the criminal illegal reentry statute—the most prosecuted federal crime in the United States, and a key driver of mass incarceration for Mexicans in the United States—is unconstitutional because it was enacted to discriminate against Mexicans based on their race. A federal judge agreed with him, declaring the law unconstitutional due to its racist origins. The Biden Administration is now appealing that decision.
