BREWSTER, Wash. — The Obama administration has replaced immigration raids at factories and farms with a quieter enforcement strategy: sending federal agents to scour companies’ records for illegal immigrant workers.

While the sweeps of the past commonly led to the deportation of such workers, the “silent raids,” as employers call the audits, usually result in the workers being fired, but in many cases they are not deported.

Selective enforcement of the immigration law. Pandering for votes by not enforcing the immigration law in its entirety. Immigration law should be enforced it its entirety, not just the parts Obama wants.

SEATTLE (AP) —

She asked ICE to send her details about it today so she could review why it was carried out. In her testimony, she said enforcement should target employers and felonious criminals versus targeting workers
