We are all immigrants. If criminal laws against our population are broken it is one thing. But workers that improve our lives and pay taxes should be allowed work permits and sponsorship by responsible party. I am writing to express that Mayor Alameda reviews the existing and potential agreements with public and private partners to ensure constitutional rights of residents are protected and requests the Hawaii Police Department to limit its involvement with the United States Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Customs Enforcement to cases involving criminal activity. Further and clearly requesting to rescind all MOUs with ICE/HSI, reject any 287(g) agreements with the federal government and ensure Hawaii Police Department officers are always properly identified and in uniform, except in legitimate undercover criminal operations, not immigration raids.
