New detention reforms make sense
October 17, 2009
Immigration reform doesn't just mean protecting the borders and providing illegal immigrants with a path to earned legalization. It also means improving the current system for how we detain those illegal immigrants who have been apprehended and might be on their way to being deported.
According to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, more than 350,000 immigrants are detained each year in this country.
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano recently announced a package of reforms aimed at making detention centers around the country safer and more efficient while finding other ways, such as ankle bracelets, to keep track of non-violent offenders awaiting court dates. Napolitano also wants to separate immigrants with criminal records from those who are simply seeking asylum.
This all seems like good common sense. But we learned long ago that is a commodity often missing in the world of immigration enforcement. That is all the more reason that we should welcome such innovations whenever they're proposed, and encourage those officials who propose them.
The idea of tracking the whereabouts of non-violent offenders with ankle bracelets is particularly intriguing. First, it would surely save taxpayers a bundle of money since using bracelets is, according to Napolitano, about one-tenth as costly as incarceration. But, more than that, by making the system less intrusive in people's lives while they await an immigration hearing, we increase the chances that people will be willing to cooperate and not attempt to flee. Besides, for many years, the government hasn't bothered to fully enforce its detention laws, and this could make it easier to do so.
Napolitano is onto something here. We can't just be tough on immigration enforcement. We also have to be smart about it. Reforming the detention system is a step in that direction.

The best and cheapest solution is to enforce immigration laws. Border security, a fence, and deportation are the only solutions to America's hemorrhaging job market and evaporating sovereignty.
I see this as a "Trojan Horse". They are going to use this until Amnesty has been achieved...then fling open the detention centers.
The fact they are not legally in the U.S.... gives our government the right to deport them immediately.

Actually federal law says that every one of them that request an immigration hearing in court must have a hearing. Only an immigration judge can determine if they must be deported.NO AMNESTY

I believe the second offense, which includes a high number, should and can result in immediate deportation.
