Immigration loophole, often ripped by Trump, finally confirmed by DHS data
By Stephen Dinan - The Washington Times - Tuesday, January 5, 2021
Bring a child to the border, get released: It’s a mantra that illegal immigrants have repeated for several years, and groundbreaking data announced Tuesday by the Department of Homeland Security shows just how true it is.
Of the 1 million migrants who showed up as a “family unit,†defined as a parent and at least one child, just 6% are known to have been successfully repatriated. For unaccompanied children from countries such as El Salvador and Guatemala, the repatriation rate was just 5%.
For adults who show up without children, the chance that Homeland Security can deport them is much higher, at 75%.
