US resumes deportation flights to Haiti

WASHINGTON — The U.S. government is resuming deportation flights to Haiti following a brief suspension after Hurricane Matthew.

Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson says in a statement Wednesday that more than 200 Haitian nationals have been deported in recent weeks.

Johnson says that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement "plans to significantly expand removal operations in the coming weeks."

Johnson announced the plan to detain and deport newly arriving Haitians on Sept. 21. Before that, such immigrants were being allowed into the United States on what is called humanitarian parole.

Deportations were halted to Haiti for most immigrants after a devastating 2010 earthquake that killed more than 220,000 people and severely damaged the country's infrastructure.

Haitians with temporary protected status are unaffected by the resumption of flights.

U.S. Deportation Flights Since 2011 Cost Over $838 MILLION

That's a rip off. We're getting ripped off!!! We don't have that many deportation flights to justify that cost.

Illegal aliens from Mexico and Canada can be returned by bus.

Illegal aliens from every other country on earth are sent by plane.

ICE Air Operations

Fact Sheet

• ICE Air Operations (IAO) is the air transportation arm of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

• IAO is located within the ICE Office of Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO). ERO's mission is to identify arrest and remove aliens who present a danger to national security or are a risk to public safety, as well as those who enter the United States illegally or otherwise undermine the integrity of our immigration laws and our border control efforts.
• IAO supports this mission by providing air transportation services to ERO's 24 field offices, to facilitate the movement of aliens within the United States and also the removal of aliens to destinations worldwide.
• IAO facilitates the transportation and removal of aliens via commercial flights; and since 2006, it has transported and/or removed hundreds of thousands of aliens using air charter services.
• IAO procures the majority of its charter flight services from vendors through the General Services Administration (GSA) Schedule. IAO chartered aircraft are a combination of Boeing 737s and MD-80s, capable of transporting 135 aliens. This arrangement provides IAO with cost effective and highly flexible flight services; and as a result, IAO can rapidly adjust to changing requirements such as dates, times and operating locations.
• Mexican nationals ordered removed from the United States travel on domestic flights from various U.S. cities to Southern tier cities such as San Diego, Calif. and Brownsville, Texas. They are then bused across the U.S.-Mexico border. Other foreign nationals ordered removed are flown from various U.S. cities or IAO hub cities such as Mesa, Ariz., San Antonio, Texas, Alexandria, La., and Miami, Fla., to Central and South America, and other countries.
• Domestic destinations include Seattle, Wash.; San Francisco, Calif.; Las Vegas, Nev.; El Paso, Texas; Boise, Idaho; Newark, N.J.; New Orleans, La.; St. Paul, Minn.; Omaha, Neb.; Denver, Colo.; Salt Lake City, Utah; Reno, Nev.; Miami, Fla.; Chicago, Ill.; Bakersfield, Calif.; Kansas City, Mo.; Columbus, Ga.; Oakland, Calif.; and Harrisburg, Pa.
• IAO routinely conducts:
  
  • Domestic flights to facilitate the transfer, staging and removal of aliens via land ports of entry or for flights abroad;
  • Regularly scheduled repatriation flights to countries with a high volume of removals;
  • Long-range charter flights to countries or regions (including Europe, Africa, and Asia) on an as needed basis; and
  • Special charters to accommodate aliens with serious medical conditions, those who fail to comply with removal efforts, and high-profile removals.

• The majority of IAO charter flights operate in the United States, the Caribbean, Central America, and South America. Foreign destinations include: the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Haiti, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Colombia, and Ecuador.

We need buy our own planes and fly them ourselves. Someone's getting RICH on this.

Why can't we send them back with the packages and freight going to those countries and get a 2 for 1?

Load up military cargo planes FULL and get them out.

Also, STOP the 2000+ refugees Australia wants to dump on us. We do not want them!
