Proving once again your ignorance. Which you could avoid by reading more.[/quote]

Well, there are restrictions.

The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) is running out of money.

Senate agreed to $1.2 billion to Customs and Border Protection to relieve overcrowding and to improve care.  I don't know how that works, however, as these centers can only fit so many people.

The bill includes restrictions - some ever supported by Rs - that include no border wall funding.  There is no support for extra beds, which was requested by ICE. There is also Congressional access to ORR built into the funding.

We shouldn't build more beds.  Release them and they'll return for their hearings.  Not detain them.[/quote]

Release a 2 year old with no parent?
We do release families, and most actually do not return for their hearing. That is just a fact.

Actually, the facts are that the 2 year old was separated from a family member, and the facts are that under the old system (ie Obama) the hearing rate was around 82%, so yes, some fell through the cracks, but most went to their hearings and were either accepted or deported.[/quote]

I'll need evidence from you b/c I don't necessarily believe these stats. However, if they are accurate, it's b/c the Obama admin placed quite a few on a bus right back home.

This comes to mind - 2014 - https://www.cnn.com/2014/07/02/us/california-immigrant-transfers/index.html

I guess we've become very compassionate lately.

[quote]The national controversy over a surge of Central American immigrants illegally crossing the U.S. border established a new battleground this week in a Southern California small town where angry crowds thwarted detained migrants from entering their community.

In a faceoff Tuesday with three buses carrying the migrants behind screened-off windows, the demonstrators chanted "Go back home!" and "USA" and successfully forced the coaches to leave Murrieta, CNN affiliate KFMB reported.

The buses instead took the 140 or so undocumented immigrants to U.S. processing centers at least 80 miles away, in the San Diego and El Centro areas, federal officials say.
Counter-protesters squared off with the demonstrators, and a shouting match erupted over the [b]nation's immigration system, which recently has been overwhelmed with a tide of Central American minors illegally entering the United States alone or with other children[/b].

[b]Unlike undocumented [u]Mexican migrants, who are often immediately deported[/u], the U.S. government detains and processes the Central Americans, who are eventually released and given a month to report to immigration offices. Many never show up and join the nation's 11 million undocumented population, says the National Border Patrol Council, the union representing Border Patrol agents.[/b]
