von Spakovsky and Strobl: No more ‘catch and release’ for illegal immigrants

    Hans von Spakovsky, Grant Strobl Monday, April 10, 201

    One of the smartest steps President Trump has taken to get our illegal immigration problem under control was ending the Obama administration’s policy known as “catch and release.”

    Border Patrol agents have long sarcastically called it the “catch and run” policy. Why?

    Because aliens who have been caught and then released under the stipulation they show up for a scheduled hearing frequently fail to appear in court. That’s the finding of a new report produced by former federal immigration court judge Mark H. Metcalf and published by the Center for Immigration Studies.
