I. INTRODUCTIONCongress and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have repeatedly

acknowledged the vulnerabilities of immigrant women and the barriers to assistance for

immigrant victims of domestic violence, trafficking, and sexual assault. Women who donot have a stable immigration status are far more likely to be exploited in the workplace,

at home, and in accessing services and legal rights.

The federal government protects rights as an essential step in forging a national

consensus that our society will not tolerate violence against women.1

These laws

establish special immigration protections to encourage immigrant women to report and

participate in investigating and prosecuting crimes without fear of arrest and removal.2

DHS policies also prevent detention of immigrant mothers and caretakers of children.3

Federal law guarantees that all persons, regardless of immigration status, may access

services necessary to protect life and safety, including shelter, emergency medical

services, victim assistance, and soup kitchens.4

Arizona SB 1070 changes that. It will cause irreparable harm to immigrant

women (nearly half of Arizonas immigrant population) and their children.5

Whereas

Arizona law enforcement previously helped ensure that immigrant women were not

penalized for reporting crimes, SB 1070 requires law enforcement officers involved in

any stop or investigation to detain and question upon reasonable suspicion that a person

allegedly engaged in criminal activity may be undocumented. SB 1070 also makes it

unlawful to harbor undocumented immigrants. Many commonplace activities could

(VAWA 2000) 1501-13. The protections are not limited to women but women are atfar greater risk than men of domestic and sexual violence and exploitation.3DHS, Mem. re Prosecutorial and Custody Discretion (Nov. 7, 2007); DOJ, Mem. re

support criminal detention under SB 1070, such as traffic infractions, jaywalking, or even

being in the wrong place when law enforcement investigates suspected harboring.

Given law enforcements wide and subjective discretion to stop and detain, these

laws will cause immigrants to refrain from seeking federally established protections and

be irreparably harmed. Since passage of the bill and before the law goes into effect,

federally funded battered womens shelters have seen the number of immigrants

accessing these essential services plummet because victims fear detention and permanent

separation from children if they seek help. Arizona police could be stationed outside a

shelter precisely because immigrant women are likely to use federally guaranteed life-

saving services. Immigrant women face these fears when taking their children to child

care or religious ceremonies, going to work, and seeking health and other services. This

law puts immigrant women in fear of detention anytime they leave their homes.

SB 1070 creates a sub-class of women and children in perpetual fear, trapped in

violent relationships or work environments. It creates an environment in which women

who police think look like immigrants are never sure whether they may be required to

produce papers on demand, and in which immigrant women who are crime victims or in

need of food, shelter, or essential medical services will fear seeking redress that

Congress set up specifically for their protection. SB 1070 directly conflicts with federal

laws and interests, it will cause irreparable harm, and it should be stricken.

II. SB 1070 INTERFERES WITH FEDERAL PROTECTIONS FORIMMIGRANT WOMEN WHO ARE VICTIMS OF CRIME

A. Immigrant Women Are Uniquely Susceptible to Crime and Abuse.For reasons related to family, employment, and human trafficking, immigrant

women are particularly likely to suffer abuse, violence, and other crimes. Abusers, who

often are citizens or lawful permanent residents and control their wives and childrens

immigration status, use threats of deportation and separation of mothers from children to

keep them from seeking help or calling the police.6

When a woman seeks legal

immigration status based upon a family relationship (as most do), she may languish for

years in a long queue for a visa.7

If she needs to work, she must do so without status,

making her vulnerable to exploitation by unscrupulous employers.

Many battered immigrant women report increased abuse after immigrating to the

U.S.8

65% report that their spouses threatened deportation and not filing or withdrawing

immigration papers as a control tactic.9

Immigration status significantly affects immigrant womens willingness to seek

law enforcement help. Women with permanent immigration status are more than twice as

likely as women with temporary immigration status to call police for help in domestic

violence cases, and the rate is even lower if the immigrant is undocumented.10

These

reporting rates are much lower than rates for battered women generally in the U.S.11

Immigrant women also are specially affected by workplace abuse. They make up

most of the workforce in the informal employment sector, as childcare, domestic, farm

and factory workers. Because undocumented women may have no other options,

employers have a perverse incentive to employ them, and they may be more freely

subjected to exploitive or dangerous working conditions. Employers take advantage of

such womens lack of immigration status and language proficiency by subjecting them to

low wages and unsafe working conditions. Sexual harassment at work is reported by

77% of Latina immigrants.12

Employers threaten reporting to immigration authorities to

coerce sexual favors or to discourage reporting of abuse and labor law violations.13

In addition, human trafficking results in 14,500-17,500 women, children, and men

trafficked into the U.S. every year, mostly women and girls.14

Traffickers use force,

fraud, or coercion to compel work and often to subject workers to sexual violence.15

Traffickers tell their victims that calling the police or anyone else will result in the

victims deportation.16

B. Congress Enacted Immigration Protections for Immigrant Victims.Congress has specifically acted to protect the rights and well-being of immigrant

victims.17

The Violence Against Women Act of 1994 (VAWA) is the centerpiece of

these protections.18

VAWA encourages immigrant women to report crimes and abuse

regardless of immigration status a strong message that life, health, and safety come

first:Domestic battery problems can become terribly exacerbated in marriageswhere one spouse is not a citizen, and the non-citizen[]s legal statusdepends on his or her marriage to the abuser. . . . [A] battered spouse may bedeterred from taking action to protect himself or herself, such as filing for acivil protection order, filing criminal charges, or calling the police, becauseof the threat or fear of deportation.

19

VAWA 2000 broadened protection by creating two visas for crime victims who

cooperate with law enforcement: the T Visa for human trafficking victims and the U

Visa for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and other crimes.20

The T and U

Visa programs require coordination with local law enforcement and endorsement of the

victims cooperation in investigations and prosecutions.21

The Department of Justice

(DOJ) funds anti-trafficking task forces across the country (including in Phoenix) that

encourage service providers, law enforcement, and prosecutors to coordinate, because

trafficking cannot be prosecuted unless victims have access to services and protection

from deportation.22

Congress underscored its intent to protect immigrants in the 1996

IIRAIRA, adding battered immigrant women and children to the categories of immigrants

qualified to receive welfare benefits that prior legislation took away, recognizing that

economic survival is a significant reason victims remain with abusers.23

Congress authorizes organizations funded by the Legal Services Corporation to

represent immigrant victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, trafficking, or other

crimes in matters related to the victimization, even if immigration status otherwise

precludes representation.24

The Federal Victims of Crime Act provided grants to states

with eligible victim compensation programs including Arizona, which places no

restrictions on crime victim assistance eligibility due to immigration status.25

SB 1070

severely impairs relationships between law enforcement and immigrant crime victims

that Congress sought to strengthen.

C.

SB 1070 Undermines Immigrant Crime Victim Protections.

SB 1070 will irreparably harm immigrant womens ability to flee ongoing family

and workplace violence. Because women will be afraid to report crimes and abuse,

crimes and abuse will continue, and women and children will live in danger and fear

while the perpetrator escapes punishment. Under SB 1070, an immigrant crime victim

will be afraid to reach out to law enforcement or federally guaranteed social services in

Arizona, for fear of detention, separation from her children, and removal. A T or U Visa-

eligible victim will not seek help from law enforcement to cooperate in investigating or

prosecuting crimes committed in Arizona. This harm cannot be undone.

In contrast to SB 1070, federal guidelines are clear that not every immigrant who

may be undocumented should be subject to immigration enforcement. Federal

immigration officials may not rely upon information provided by abusers or traffickers to

pursue enforcement actions against undocumented immigrant crime victims,26

and are

strongly cautioned against arresting immigrants at sensitive locations, such as rape

crisis centers or domestic abuse shelters, because immigrants there likely qualify for

victim-based immigration benefits.27

Nursing mothers and others with health conditions

should not be detained.28

DOJ and DHS use factors to exercise prosecutorial discretion

not to initiate immigration enforcement, including humanitarian concerns, eligibility for

immigration relief, and cooperation with law enforcement.29

Another consequence of SB 1070 is that many immigrants lawfully in the U.S.

will be subject to detention when Arizona law enforcement personnel are unfamiliar with

a given immigration status or documentation. Complex federal immigration law,

multiple types of legal immigration status, and the range of federally acceptable evidence

of status make it virtually impossible for Arizona law enforcement to implement SB 1070

in an informed manner consistent with federal law. For example, the Attorney General

has issued guidance of nine pages, in small font, of the various documentation acceptable

to establish citizenship, lawful permanent residency, and other qualified status.30

SB 1070 will lead to detention and potential removal of immigrant women in the

process of obtaining legal immigration status under VAWA and the Trafficking Victims

Protection Act (which may involve months or even years of processing31

), because they

receive documentation in the form of prima facie determinations or deferred action

status, but do not receive an ID card or formal order. Federal policies advise that stays

of removal be granted for persons with pending U Visa applications who demonstrate

prima facie eligibility, including consideration of humanitarian factors.32

Moreover,

due to VAWAs confidentiality provisions, even federal immigration authorities may be

unaware of an immigrants pending application for relief unless the Victims and

Trafficking Unit of the Vermont Service Center the centralized processing unit in

which VAWA, T Visa and U Visa petitions are processed is specifically contacted.33

III. SB 1070 CUTS IMMIGRANT WOMEN OFF FROM FEDERAL BENEFITSCongress has also ensured that federally funded benefits necessary to life and

safety are available to all persons who need them regardless of immigration status.

PRWORA cut off most federally funded benefits for immigrants, but Congress reserved

the Attorney Generals right to designate that certain services necessary to protect life

and safety to be open to all without regard to immigration status, and she did so.34

Nearly half of Arizonas immigrant population are women, and substantial

numbers report that they head their households and are primarily responsible for their

childrens health care and schooling.35

of fear,36

SB 1070 will significantly harm immigrant women by impeding access to

federally guaranteed benefits such as emergency Medicaid,37

federally qualified

community health clinics, emergency shelters,38

soup kitchens, treatment for mental

illness, and crisis intervention.39

Federally funded clinics offer pre-natal and child health

care, as well as care for uniquely female illnesses such as cervical cancer, which is

prevalent among Latina women.40

Impeding access to pre-natal care leads to more low

birthweight births and more serious disabilities.41

Federal money also supports critical

post-assault services. SB 1070 will deter immigrant women and their children from

obtaining critical life-saving assistance, undermining Congresss intent to maintain

healthy, safe communities. Every woman who needs such services and does not seek

them for herself or her child will be irreparably harmed.

IV. SB 1070 WILL SEPARATE MOTHERS AND CHILDREN.SB 1070 exacerbates the likelihood that children will be separated from their

immigrant parents. Sole and primary caretaker immigrant mothers will be deterred from

Immigrant children will be harmed if every time an immigrant mother leaves her home,

she risks arrest, detention, and separation from her children.

In Arizona, 84.5% of children with at least one immigrant parent are U.S.

citizens.42

The increase in local police involvement in immigration enforcement that SB

1070 mandates will cause far more parental separations than do federal immigration

enforcement actions.43

Forced separations, whatever the duration, will irreparably harm

children and violate immigrant mothers constitutional rights to care for children and

make decisions about childrens health, welfare, and development. Detention of an

abused mother often results in children being turned over to the abusive spouse.44

The damage to the mother-child relationship and to children led federal

immigration authorities to implement humanitarian guidelines that attempt to promptly

identify sole caregivers of children, to coordinate with social services agencies, and to

consider alternatives to detention of immigrant parents, usually mothers.45

DHS instructs

that nursing mothers not be detained.46

Federal policies encourage prosecutorial

discretion to not initiate immigration enforcement against persons who ultimately will

obtain lawful status.47

SB 1070 contains no such protections or considerations.

Detained mothers face many barriers to reuniting with their children. Some state

child welfare agencies actively impede immigrants access to children and ability to

participate in parental rights proceedings. See Nebraska Supreme Court decision in In re

Angelica L., 767 N.W. 2d 74 (Neb. 2009). Systemic barriers in family court proceedings

that impede immigrant mothers ability to maintain custody of their children include

language barriers; judges who base custody decisions on immigration status rather than

parenting ability and the childrens best interests as required by state law; and

requirements imposed by child welfare authorities that make reunification virtually

impossibility for many immigrant mothers.48

Separations when mothers are detained pose serious risks to childrens safety,

economic security, and long-term development, causing anxiety, withdrawal, and

aggression.49

Because of this trauma, mothers clearly eligible for immigration relief

abandon challenges to removal so that they can be released and reunited with their

children. An Arizona lawyer working with immigrant women reported that their needs

are so different from men. All they want is their children. So its very hard to work with

them because they dont want to . . . hear you have to be here four months fighting your

case. They just say, You know, I dont care about my case; I care about my kids.50

V. CONCLUSIONSB 1070 unravels years of federal immigration protections for women, chills the

exercise of legal rights, stops pursuit of justice system remedies, and cuts off immigrant

women and their children from federally funded services that protect life and safety.
