Top Democrats call on DHS to release detained illegal immigrants due to coronavirus threat

Top House Democrats Tuesday called on the Department of Homeland Security to release illegal immigrants to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairwoman Carolyn Maloney and Rep. Jamie Raskin wrote to DHS acting Secretary Chad Wolf, asking him to immediately release nonviolent detainees.

Maloney and Raskin said the detention facilities that house the illegal immigrants are not equipped to deal with a coronavirus outbreak. The two lawmakers said 19 detained illegal immigrants and seven immigration enforcement officers have tested positive for the coronavirus at six Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities.

Perfect every Democrat that wants one released should be required to take them to their home.



I bet they drop it if this was required!

That is the most backwards thinking I've ever seen. Leave it to the Democrats to come up with an idea that makes the situation worse but improves their voting numbers. 6:21 is right.

The facilities have all the things necessary to preserve and protect. This is another crisis-obscured Dem opportunity to do something stupid.
