Eddie Melton on Immigration

 

 


Stopped sharing info with immigration authorities in 2017

The Vermont governor's office says the state's Department of Motor Vehicles stopped sharing facial recognition information with federal immigration authorities more than two years ago. A spokeswoman for Republican Gov. Phil Scott said the state stopped sharing the information in May 2017, after Scott, who took office earlier that year, was made aware of it.

Protecting DACA is essential; DREAMers are contributors

Melton filed a resolution to protect DACA recipients. Sen. Melton [said], "Many undocumented immigrants are brought here by their parents at a very young age and Indiana quickly becomes the only home they've ever known. We need to show the nearly 10,000 of those DREAMers living in Indiana that we support them. The individuals who have immigrated to our state have greatly contributed to the overall cultural and economic vitality of Indiana and we can't risk losing those positive contributions."
