A letter issued about keeping an eye on immigrants created an atmosphere of fear


A letter is currently being discussed in America. In this letter, Americans have been asked to keep an eye on immigrants. In this letter, people have been asked to note the license plate number of a potential immigrant’s car because he may be living in the United States illegally. This letter has been opposed by groups active in the rights of immigrants and a campaign has also been launched to make immigrants aware of their rights. An Oregon sheriff has said that he has contacted the FBI in this regard and expressed his concern about it. A press release issued by the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office has condemned this letter and said that this letter can cause division among the people. Sheriff Curtis Landers has said that he has also received such a letter after which he has contacted federal authorities. The FBI has said that it is aware of such letters being sent. According to the FBI, the letter is intended to encourage people who feel unsafe to report their concerns to law enforcement. The letter says that if you are sitting in a church parking lot or picking up your children from school, write down the license plates of potential immigrants because they may not have permanent legal status in the country. The sheriff’s office said in a press release that it is committed to upholding Oregon law, which prohibits local police from asking anyone about their citizenship or immigration status and sharing that information with federal authorities. “We are encouraging people to do the right thing and respond to these types of letters with compassion,” the statement added. We strongly advise against the kind of activity the letter calls for.” Oregon Attorney General Alan Rosenblum has also condemned such letters. He said in a statement that attempts to intimidate the people and their leaders through racist letters will not succeed in Oregon. We will stand united against those who want to divide us. Sheriff Curtis Landers received a copy of this letter in his mailbox. There are also reports of mayors and councilors receiving such letters. It is believed that this letter is part of the campaign of Donald Trump, who won the presidential election, under which illegal immigrants are to be deported en masse. In opposition to this, advocacy groups have launched a campaign across the country, including in the immigrant-friendly states of California and Illinois, to make immigrants aware of their rights. Immigrants are being told how they can protect themselves and their loved ones.
