Yeah, that’s gonna happen:
#Trump admin says #undocumented immigrants must *register*
The Trump admin will require all unauthorized immigrants in the United States who are 14 & older to register w/the federal government or face #civil & #criminal penalties, including up to $1k in fines & up to 6 months in #prison.

#DHS Secy #KristiNoem [& dog serial killer], who announced the plan Tues, argued that the #Trump admin should know who is here illegally so that it can #deport them or give them the chance to leave voluntarily. She has warned immigrants in recent days that they “will be #hunted down & deported” if they fail to register & has cited a provision of the 1952 Immigration & Nationality Act as justification for the requirement.

The registration plan faces several significant obstacles. Immigrants may be *reluctant* to register after watching the #Trump admin order federal officers into US cities & towns to #detain people or send them to #Guantánamo…. And lawyers & legal scholars say the admin’s proposal is on shaky #legal ground & could quickly destabilize communities & an #economy w/millions of unfilled jobs.

“I do not think they can do this without going through the proper legal processes,” said Nancy Morawetz, a professor at NYU Law School. “You can’t just say, ‘Oh I’m going to go back & read the law that way.’ You have to explain why you’re changing it, why it’s legal.”
…Registration dates to the 1940s & is codified in the 1952 #Immigration & Nationality Act. The #law requires immigrants aged 14 or older to register & be fingerprinted within 30 days of arrival, if they had not done so already.
…The new program could lead to a “nationwide show-me-your-papers regime” that could ensnare US #citizens & legal immigrants, Greg Chen, senior director of government relations for the American #Immigration Lawyers Association, warned in an interview. Anyone who “appears foreign” could be harassed, he said.

…#Registration laws were originally intended as an inventory of noncitizens in the country, Morawetz said. But once govt officials obtained that info, they used it to aid the #detention of #Japanese Americans during WWII & #Muslims after the Sept 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
“Registration laws have a very, very bad history in terms of what they have meant when they have been fully enforced,” she said.
