    US to turn away asylum seekers during coronavirus outbreak

    by: City News Service

    SAN DIEGO (CNS) – The U.S. Border Patrol’s San Diego-area office had no immediate response Tuesday to a published report that the federal government plans to begin turning back all asylum seekers at the U.S.-Mexico line over concerns about the worsening coronavirus pandemic.

    The border-enforcement agency has had no local discussions about Tuesday’s report in The New York Times, which attributed the information to four unnamed Trump administration officials, Supervisor USBP Agent Jeff Stephenson said.

    According to the Times, a quartet of Washington officials said the plan for new, more stringent immigration rules — set to be announced within 48 hours — was based on a belief that the nation “cannot risk allowing the coronavirus to spread through detention facilities” and the ranks of the Border Patrol.

    The southern ports of entry would, however, remain open to American citizens, holders of green cards, foreigners with approved documentation, and commercial traffic, the anonymous sources said.

    Noting that the particulars could change prior to the expected changes, administration officials said the measure was needed to prevent a possible “system-wide outbreak” of coronavirus infection inside border-area detention facilities, since “many of the migrants who cross the border are already sick” or cannot sufficiently document their medical histories.

    The San Diego-area Border Patrol spokesman, who said he was familiar with the Times’ report, declined to comment on it in advance of any official administration announcement on the topic.

    NO AMNESTY

    Don't reward the criminal actions of millions of illegal aliens by giving them citizenship.

    Clear out our detention facilities and send these illegals and UACs back home!

    Do not release them on our soil.

    Let their country pay to quarantine them!

    No more of this invasion costing us billions of dollars!




    No immigration for the next 12 MONTHS coming into our country.

    We do not have the funds to pay for this.

    We are on complete lock down.

    THEY NEED TO GO HOME!!!

    NO REFUGEES! U.N. NEEDS TO GO IN AND STOP THESE WARS AND SEND THOSE PEOPLE HOME TO REBUILD.

    Clear the Court BACKLOG of these illegal aliens and send them all back home.

    We owe these people nothing!

    We have 300 MILLION Americans to take care of now.

    No more showing up on our doorstep.

    Mexico MUST clear out those tent cities, load them on buses, and send them back home immediately!
