Closing that loophole that prevents these illegal immigrants from being deported? The media has been claiming that they can’t be deported because of this law signed by Bush - but according to this blogger, it EXPIRED in 2011.
From the article:
While it might be convenient for Democrats to claim George Bush had something to do with the influx because of his signature on the December 2008 reauthorization bill ” William Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2008“, the fact is that reauthorization expired in 2011 (link - https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/110/hr7311/text).
HR7311 – To authorize appropriations for fiscal years 2008 through 2011 for the Trafficking Victims Protection Act of 2000, to enhance measures to combat trafficking in persons, and for other purposes. (link)
It should also be noted the Bush signed reauthorization bill was constructed on 12/9/08 by Democrats (who controlled both houses), and passed on 12/10/08 – a month after candidate Barack Obama won the presidential election. George Bush was a lame duck.
