McCarran Act of 1952 - TRULY INTERESTING.

 

Wouldn't it have been interesting if, at some point during the presidential campaign, if one of the candidates asked, "Oh, by the way, has anyone in Washington, D.C., ever heard of the McCarran-Walter Act Of 1952 ?"

 

I did not know of this act until recently, but it has been a law for almost 65 years.  Here are the historic facts that would seem to indicate that many, if not most, of the people we elect, to work for us in Washington, do not have the slightest idea of what laws already exist in OUR country.

 

After several terrorist incidents were carried out in the United States, Donald Trump was severely criticized and sued for suggesting that the U.S. should limit or temporarily suspend the immigration of certain ethnic groups, nationalities and even people of certain religions (Muslims).

 

The criticisms condemned such a suggestion as, among other things, being un-American, dumb, stupid, reckless, dangerous and racist.

Congressmen and senators swore that they would never allow such legislation, and our former president ( zero)called such a prohibition on immigration unconstitutional.

 

 

Known as the  [ McCarran-Walter Act ], the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 allows for the: “suspension of entry or imposition of restrictions by the president, whenever the president finds that the entry of aliens or of any class of aliens into the United States would be detrimental to the interests of the United States."

 

“The president may, by proclamation and for such a period as he shall deem necessary, suspend the entry of all aliens or any class of aliens, immigrants or non- immigrants, or impose any restrictions on the entry of aliens he may deem to be appropriate."

 

Who was president when this was passed ?

 

Harry Truman...

 

Who do you suppose last used this process?

 

Jimmy Carter

 

Carter used it 40 years ago, in 1979 to keep Iranians out of the United States.  But Carter actually did more.

 

He made ALL Iranian students, already in the United States, check in with the government, then he deported a bunch of them. Seven thousand were found in violation of their visas and a total of 15,000 Iranians were forced to leave the USA in 1979.

 

Additionally, it is important to note that the McCarran-Walter Act also requires that an " applicant for immigration must be of good moral character and in agreement with the principles of our Constitution."  !!! WOW !!!

 

Therefore, one could surmise that since the Quran forbids Muslims to swear allegiance to the U.S. Constitution, technically, ALL Muslims should be or could be refused immigration to OUR country.

 

Incidentally, both McCarran and Walter were democrats.
