REPORT: The rise of racial profiling, discrimination and abuse in immigrant communities
as a result of local enforcement of immigration laws.
Nowhere have the racial profiling effects of the 287(g) program been more acute than in Maricopa County, AZ. Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Maricopa County is
one of the country’s main proponents of 287(g). Under his watch, 160 deputies have been trained by ICE. Together with 3000 volunteer “posse”
members, they have engaged in what they call “crime suppression sweeps,” house to house raids in Latino and Native American neighborhoods. In
October of 2007, these sweeps began in front of a local furniture store where day laborers gather to seek work in odd jobs such as landscaping,
construction, and moving.
