The Trump administration has been whittling away at the policy known as "Catch and Release" for two years. After several initiatives that severely limited the practice, the Department of Homeland Security announced they would be completely ending the policy next week.
"Catch and Release" grew out of several court decisions that restricted immigration authorities in the way they handled captured illegals. Limiting the time an illegal alien could spend in detention, which forced officials to affect their release, meant that basically all the government could do was hand the illegal a piece of paper telling them when they had to appear in court and release them into the interior of the U.S.
That practice will now end.
Daily Caller:
“With some humanitarian and medical exceptions, DHS will no longer be releasing family units from Border Patrol Stations into the interior,” McAleenan said Monday, according to a DHS press release. “This means that for family units, the largest demographic by volume arriving at the border this year, the court-mandated practice of catch and release, due to the inability of DHS to complete immigration proceedings with families detained together in custody, will have been mitigated.”
"Heartless and cruel," right? Anyone who says that has no idea what they're talking about. In fact, what's "heartless and cruel" is the overwhelming surge of migrants at the border who have swamped U.S. immigration facilities to overflowing, causing a humanitarian crisis that the government must address by trying to slow the number of migrants trying to enter the country.
"To date, authorities have apprehended or encountered more than 920,000 migrants at the U.S. southern border this fiscal year. The vast majority of them are family units from Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, and many of them lodge an asylum claim once Border Patrol apprehends them. There...

This should be part of a Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement bill. The List of Comprehensive Immigration Enforcement, missing since 1987 goes like this -
1) southern barrier;
2) require eVerify to hire;
3) end all chain migration;
4) birthright per Minor v. Happersett (plural parents);
5) end work visas;
6) 10-year moratorium on all new applications for citizenship (40 years to allow workplace automation effects on downsizing population);
7) Set up an illegal aliens’ victim restitution fund.
Enactment of these provisions will motivate illegal aliens to SELF-deport, and remove colonizadors from our welfare rolls.
Add a 25% tax on all remittances to other countries. Non-Mexican, Central or South Americans can apply for a rebate.
Finally!! - the “catch and release” program should have been stopped two years ago - talk about slow walking, that is not even a good creep.
I know! Lol

What is the impact upon health/disease from these releases? Have
they all be vaccinated as would a normal citizen growing up in the USA?

I bet the 25 cent tax leaving 75 cents to be forwarded is still
lots of money to the recipients.
Did you notice how suddenly the immigration issue disappeared from the mouths of Democrats. They stop talking about it when they knew it was a loser for them.
Why do we let foreigners in Congress? The Democrat Representative (Mumbai) is the direct result of about over 300 thousand Indian H1Bs and their families taking over King County, Washington.
