According to federal statistics, the Department of Homeland Security – at its current catch and release rates – releases over 200 illegal immigrants into the interior of the United States every single day.
After the implementation President Trump’s “Remain in Mexico” policy which keeps ‘asylum seekers’ in Mexico while they wait for their claims to be processed, the number of illegal immigrants being released into the country’s interior has leveled out to around 208 each day.
The DHS released 7,700 illegal immigrants into the interior of the country between July 23rd and August 26th. This month’s numbers mark a small increase in the level of catch and release to the weeks of July 10 and July 22 which saw approximately 192 illegal border crossers and illegal immigrants released into the U.S. each day.
This amount of catch and release cases seen during this period decreased by 85 percent compared to the amount that occurred before the enacting of Trump’s Remain in Mexico policy.
The catch and release process is far from ideal. In most cases, it involves federal immigration officials taking illegal border jumpers into nearby cities by bus. Sometimes it even involves flying illegal immigrants to the interior of the country and simply dropping them off with the mere hope that they show up at their immigration hearings.
Sadly, once they’re released into the United States, the vast majority of illegal immigrants and border jumpers are never deported. The illegal immigrants coming to this country are well aware of this and continue to game the system accordingly.
Right now, between 11 million and 22 million illegal immigrants are living in the United States. Most of them reside in states like California, New York, Texas, Florida, and Illinois.
In August, most illegal immigrants and border hoppers, somewhere around 4,100, were released in San Antonio, Texas. An additional 1,200 were let go in El Paso, whereas 1,500 were released in Phoenix, Arizona and another 900 were released in San Diego, California.
Most illegals and border jumpers will not show up to their immigration hearings and the cost to sustain them will passed along to the American taxpayer.
The Department of Homeland Security has released close to 224,700 illegal immigrants into the United States since December 21, 2018.
Each and every year, 1.2 million legal immigrants are admitted into the United States, with the vast majority of them arriving via a process known as “chain migration” – a process whereby newly naturalized citizens can bring an unlimited number of foreigners into the country.
This has got to stop!!! Why is the Department of Homeland Security doings this?
Hope they have a great number of body bags……..They come here to kill, rob, rape and will be shot……Too bad they didn’t have the brains to enter the USA after they were selected……..
Chain migration needs to be cut off. The illegal persons should stay in Mexico until the proper paperwork is processed. All these hundreds of thousands of illegals are living off of the government. The average household is at least 5 if not more. They receive $200.00 for food, free healthcare, housing assistance, & other government benefits without working1 day. Me I have worked all my life & I get a little help with my meds. , $15.00 in food assistance& I get a little help with housing in a Senior Apt. complex. The government needs to cut off assistance to every illegal person!!!!
I LIKE TO KNOW WHY IS THE DHS DOING THIS. EVERYONE PERSON THAT HAS RELEASE THESE ILLEGAL ALIENS INTO THE USA SHOULD BE ARRESTED AND PUT IN JAIL? THIS IS TOTALLY WRONG. ITS TIME THAT PRESIDENT TRUMP SHUT DOWN THE DHS AND HAVE EVERYONE FIRED AND PUT IN PLACE NEW WORKERS THAT WILL FOLLOW THE LAW? AS A TAXPAYER I AM TIRED OF PAYING TAXES WHERE THESE ILLEGAL ALIENS ARE GETTING FREE WELFARE, FOOD STAMPS AND PLACES TO LIVE, WHILE OUR HOMELESS AMERICANS AND HOMELESS VETERANS ARE NOT GETTING WHAT THEY DESERVE. WHEN IS THIS GOING TO STOP?
The damned Demoncrats caused this problem. They sit around in their fancy neighborhoods and flood middle class neighborhoods with illegal immigrants!
