FULL TITLE: Arizona Dem Kyrsten Sinema joins GOP in push for program that would quickly deport migrants without valid asylum claims
Freshman Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., was one of a number of Democrats to join Republican colleagues this week who called for the implementation of a pilot program that would work to quickly identify and deport migrants at the border who are judged not to have a valid asylum claim.
Sinema, along with Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Doug Jones, D-Ala., joined Republicans in writing to President Trump urging the implementation of Operation Safe Return -- a Department of Homeland Security pilot program that that would focus on quickly identifying, processing and returning family units who do not have valid asylum claims in the U.S.
Through this program, we expect that we can meet our commitments to humanitarian protections while ensuring proper efficiency, timeliness, order, and fairness in the credible fear screening process, the letter said. We also expect that Operation Safe Return will help us examine current process deficiencies, identify required increases in capacity, and understand the drivers of migration.
The program would allow DHS to remove family units within 15 days who are determined not to meet the criteria of credible fear of returning home necessary for an asylum claim. Those who are initially deemed to meet the credible fear criteria can often have their asylum cases go on for years.
The pilot program would have Border Patrol conduct interviews with migrants within three days of them being encountered between ports of entry, and have them processed and given a medical exam within four days. The "credible fear" interview shold occur within nine days.

You were reading my mind!
Sinema will be there for the Dems when they really need her. This vote is one to set her up for being a “moderate”
During the Trump roundup this should be covered. Besides determining how they got a drivers license and show how much it’s costing taxpayers of that state. Also point out increased premiums on drivers insurance rates. Check the precinct list of registered voters where these people resided. If theyre on that list, Federal crime, charge them and those that enabled them to vote knowing they were illegals
It’s not even a vote, just signing a letter. Means nothing.
Now thats an interesting choice of words...
This lesbian chick has surprised me on a coupla votes that indicate some sanity. That is scary.
SILF ping.
How will Trump do in AZ Nov 2020?
He’ll win fairly easily
&*%$# ticket splitters.
I seem to remember that President Trump has already implemented this.
“A Democrat yielding to the will of her constituents? Is that legal?”
Askhole, you stole my comment - don’t do that again (LOL)
I was also going to point out just how rare that is. She’s not exactly a conservative, but she is cutting her own path in that party, whether Sheumer likes it or not. She’s also been with us on some (but certainly not all) of Trump’s contested court picks. But I will note again, RINOs Romney, Collins, and even Murkowski have been with Trump more on judges than her or any other Democrat, much more.
I am surprised with her as well.
"Maverick" Disease IS contagious ;)
See what happens when Americans work together FOR America? Goodness it is so good to see.
Sinema might prove to be the most conservative us senator from AZ in decades?
