In a bold move to rob human smugglers of their best sales pitch of a free ride into America, the Trump administration is announcing plans to keep all illegal migrant families together and in U.S. facilities during their immigration proceedings, according to officials.
The plan, to be announced Wednesday, closes a legal loophole that requires the release of illegal immigrants after 20 days in custody, a “catch-and-release” quirk of the U.S. immigration system that so-called coyotes and smugglers have used to sell their services for up to $10,000 a person.
Instead, families will be kept together in improved housing until their cases are decided.

Strange, Obama had a program in place that ensured almost 100% of illegal aliens awaiting hearings returned for their day in court. But we can't keep Obama era policies that work can we? Too much hubris and little member syndrome

DeleteObama doesn't even remember what he stood for sometimes the same thing as Trump but he has selective memory. We still need that birth certificate president and not even an American.
ReplyDeleteNot to mention that Obama deported substantially more than Trump has with a lesser rate of illegal immigration. But he did not brag about it like our egocentric current President
