Homeland Security will PAY illegal aliens to self-deport
President Donald Trump, trying to clean up the national security-threatening crisis Joe Biden created with his open borders policies that allowed millions of illegal aliens, including criminals and terrorists, to come into the U.S., repeatedly has been opposed by leftist judges.
He can’t send illegals home without court hearings, even though they are criminal simply by having entered the U.S. without permission. He can’t send them to THAT country.
Judges have strangely ordered some of them to be brought back to the U.S., even though they already are under the jurisdiction of another nation. Or they’ve ordered deportation flights already in the air to turn around.
Now Trump’s Department of Homeland Security has revealed a deportation plan that cuts through all of the arguments.
It, in fact, would leave those calling for hearings and with complaints about “rights” without an argument.
It’s because the program would provide government help for those illegals to self-deport.
They would take themselves back.
At Fox News a report said DHS will “front the cost of commercial flights and provide a $1,000 stipend to illegal aliens who opt to self-deport from the United States.”
It is predicted to save thousands of dollars from the alternative, which is a forced removal program run by the government where aliens are rounded up and removed.
“The department says this will be 70% cheaper for American taxpayers, as it currently costs DHS, on average, over $17,000 to arrest, detain, and deport someone. DHS told Fox News that paying for aliens to remove themselves, even with the stipend, is anticipated to cost only around $4,500 on average,” the report said.
The money would be paid only when it was verified that the illegal alien had, in fact, left the U.S.
The Trump administration already had set up the CBP app that allows illegals to plan their own self-deportation.
“If you are here illegally, self-deportation is the best, safest and most cost-effective way to leave the United States to avoid arrest,” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem told.
“DHS is now offering illegal aliens financial travel assistance and a stipend to return to their home country through the CBP Home App. This is the safest option for our law enforcement, aliens and is a 70% savings for US taxpayers. Download the CBP Home App TODAY and self-deport,” she continued.
The policy so far has been that those who are deported by the government will be banned from returning to the U.S. in the future. Another incentive for self-deportation is that officials expect to allow those individuals a chance to return eventually.
While illegal aliens are subject to deportation proceedings, Trump has focused so far on the criminal illegals, including alleged members of MS-13 and Tren de Aragua gangs, which have been designated as terror organizations.
