An ACLU attorney and immigration rights’ advocate sighed with some relief after the City of Austin Human Rights Commission passed seven recommendations Monday to city council regarding immigration control at Travis County Jail.
The recommendations have little to do with the federal agency, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and their authority at Travis County Jail, or the jail’s policies, but rather they attempt to lower the number of immigrants who end up in jail for minor offenses.”*
