Public order and safety

4 proposals in this category.

• Guns and Public Safety 2 proposals

  This area covers who may buy, keep and carry a firearm in the United States, and what happens when someone who should not have one does. It does not cover policing more generally, sentencing policy, or the drug laws that shape a large part of American violence.

• Immigration and Border Enforcement 2 proposals

  This area covers who may enter the United States, who may work and stay, and the machinery that enforces those rules — visas, the border, detention, and removal. It does not cover naturalisation ceremonies, refugee resettlement abroad, or the labour law that applies to everyone regardless of status.
