There are alternatives to detention, Senator, that cost far less than actually detaining people, are better for families, and 99% of them show up throughout the entire hearing process. I thought you were in favor of fiscal responsibility?

If you truly believe they should be let go then say it. Also I think you got your stats backwards.https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/report-90-of-illegals-skip-immigration-court-appearances-135-000-will-go-missing …

I don't. I was talking about ATDs. You can read more about them here: http://www.aila.org/File/DownloadEmbeddedFile/72314 … Here's what Trump's own DHS had to say on the subject: “Historically, ICE has seen strong alien cooperation with ATD requirements during the adjudication of immigration proceedings.”

Perhaps, occasionally, you should consume a viewpoint that does not align with your own before speaking to someone who has consumed both sides of this debate. Do not presume you know everything because you read one thing. Especially when the source is biased.

Thanks I actually stood in line and went through process. Interesting concept even though sampling is about 1000 people total but wondering if you told Obama about this when he had supermajority or Schumer who doesn’t even want a legislative fix?
-
There were several samples, all which reached the same conclusion, time after time after time. And I've been outspoken about the need for immigration reform for years. I remember explicitly supporting Senator Lugar's efforts to do so. And that's not what Schumer said.
-
Republicans cannot agree on immigration reform, and they also refuse to bring Democrats onboard to attempt to negotiate on immigration reform. So, who again is stopping immigration reform? The same people as always. Republicans.

In 1986, Ronald Regan granted amnesty to millions of illegals. Since then, despite our laws, we’ve allowed tens of millions to enter and stay in our country. 2 Dem and 2 Rep presidents later, our lawmakers have done NOTHING! At least Trump has the will to do something...

The Democrat position is that all people, regardless of the circumstances of their birth, deserve the same chance at life. You'd think the "pro-life" crowd would be sympathetic to that.

Then why bother to have a border?
-
Yeah, why?
-
The same reason you have a door in your house, to not let random people you don't know in willy nilly.
-
The country is not a house.

We are family. It is a house. Collectively our safe place. Try being an illegal entering the illegal's countries. Let's see how you do stupid little girl

We are not a family. It is not a house, or private property. Your only safe space is at fox news. Mexico decriminalized undocumented immigration 10 years ago.
-
I never watch FOXNews. That is Mexico's prerogative. I wish I was around after you've actually experienced some life. They could come legally if they wanted to. You are a disgrace to your country. Assuming you are American. We take 700,000 legal immigrants every year.pic.twitter.com/repaaA2AKW
