    Senator will introduce bill that would send illegal border crossers immediately back

    Senator will introduce bill that would send illegal border crossers immediately back to home country


    by Madeleine Rivera | Fox News


    BROWNSVILLE, Texas – Oklahoma’s senior senator says he has a novel way to end the controversial practice of “catch and release” on the border.

    Instead of releasing illegal immigrants once they are caught trying to enter the country – and hope they show up to immigration court – Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., proposes sending them back to their home country. That way, he said, the illegal immigrants don’t become “absorbed” in the U.S. after they fail to show up to court.

    A large number of illegal immigrants who are caught, then released, fail to show up to immigration court, he said. They end up staying in the county illegally, he said.

    Following a tour with border agents in Brownsville, Texas, on Monday, Inhofe said he planned to introduce legislation in the next three weeks that would allow immigration agents to send those caught illegally crossing the border back home.

    “This merely says if they’re caught in the country, send them back to their country while they wait for the court date,” he said.

    President Trump signed an executive order last year to end “catch-and-release,” when illegal immigrants are detained and let go in the U.S. But his plan, to keep the immigrants detained until their court proceedings have ended, was stymied by a years-long backlog in immigration court and shortage of beds at detention centers.

    But Inhofe said “catch and release” does not have to continue because of the bed shortage.

    "The reason why 70 percent of [undocumented immigrants] don't make their court date is because [the federal government doesn’t] make them stay in their country,” he said. “And, obviously, if I were in that position, I'd be off someplace else too."

    A report released last year by the Center for Immigration Studies said about 46,000 illegal immigrants a year who are detained after illegally crossing the border do not appear in court and “disappear” in the county.

    “Deportation orders for failure to appear are the largest group of orders issued by immigration courts outside detention facilities,” said the report, written by Mark Metcalf, a former immigration judge in Miami.

    Inhofe’s office did not comment on the details of his proposal, saying the legislation is still being drafted.

    But his proposal has come under fire from immigration groups who call it inhumane and logistically impossible.

    Aida Montanaro-Flores, an immigration attorney in Brownsville, said it would be a financial burden to send the immigrants back to their country and then require them to make a trip back for a court hearing.

    “Are they going to be allowed a travel permit? Will the government pay for their travel to come back to the country and attend their court dates?” Montanaro-Flores asked. “What guarantees do we have that they they’ll be allowed to come back for their court date?”

    Other immigration groups said the idea was outright ridiculous.

    “Have we really stooped this low? This suggestion is absurd, illogical and cruel – not to mention a waste of resources,” said Kica Matos, director of the Washington, D.C.-based Immigrant and Racial Justice at the Center for Community Change. “Republicans need to focus on making communities safer instead of continuing to tear families apart.”

    The numbers and costs are staggering!

    They should have NO right to a court date. They are not US citizens and should have no right to the benefits of our country for coming here illegally.

    Apply to come LEGALLY...that is the ONLY process they should be adhering to. WE approve you or WE do not! Not a court, judge or jury.

    No court, no detention, no rights...deport within 24 hours including the UAC's. Let their country put them in detention!

    It is a privilege to come to this country not a RIGHT for 2 billion people on the planet to PUSH their way in and demand to stay.

    AMERICAN'S DEMAND THAT ALL ILLEGALS ARE IMMEDIATELY DEPORTED AND WE WANT TPS DEPORTED AND REFUGEES DEPORTED!

    TERMINATE THESE FAILED PROGRAMS. WE CANNOT TAKE IN, AND PAY FOR THE WORLD'S POOR OR SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF THE PROBLEMS THEY BRING WITH THEM!

    NO AMNESTY #8....NO DACA...AND ABSOLUTELY NO PATH TO STAY!

    I think that's the whole idea. Most of them don't show up here, so why not just let them not show up while sitting in their own country.

    They can get a "hearing" via Skype.

    They should not be getting any "hearing" to begin with.

    Fast track deport them out of here...they have no rights in this country.

    Trump need to use his Executive Order powers until Congress passes a bill. This is without question a national security issue.
