Nearly 70 rights groups have condemned proposed EU migration reforms, warning they mirror controversial U.S. policies and risk turning public services into tools of immigration enforcement. In a joint letter, campaigners expressed concern over police raids in public and private spaces and the potential for racial profiling. They cautioned that the measures could oblige EU member states to actively “detect” undocumented migrants, effectively transforming everyday spaces and community interactions into enforcement mechanisms similar to those used by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
