On this point, I want to emphasize specifically that the America First Policy Institute, which has very close ties to incoming Trump officials, is openly saying they think paying a ransom to get your loved one away from kidnappers in Mexico would be a crime and a permanent ban on immigration.
One other flag on this; under the INA, it's a ban to immigration if you are the spouse or child of any person who is deemed inadmissible under the terrorism-related provisions. So even if YOU didn't pay a toll not to get murdered, your spouse and kids will be banned from legal immigration as well.
PLEASE contact your senators today and ask them to vote no on the Laken Riley Act. It does not protect you from the undocumented immigration bogey man. (It just doesn't, guys.) #CallYourSenators (202) 224-3121 You can read the bill here: www.congress.gov/bill/118th-c...

Letitia James comes out in opposition to the Laken Riley Act, joining a growing number of law enforcement officials who have raised the alarm about the way the bill undermines due process protections and threatens to divert resources away from more serious offenses. www.amny.com/news/ag-leti...
