www.myfoxhouston.com /clip/10341594/immig ration-overload-bank s-of-the-rio-gr suits and bobble heads running the country :/ (stating the obvious) We should have a say on where our tax money should go! I clearly oppose the "planned" budget of $3.7B - $4B to be spent on the housing and accommodation of the undocumented. That's money the government does not even have. If Obama wins in the next presidential election, you know who is voting for him. I can never complain enough about this pesky, unending issue. You know, if someone from my country overstayed their tourist visa and got caught by USCIS for not complying with the law, you get deported asap with a ban from entering any U.S. soil for 10 years. Bending the rules for political gain?! Shame shame shamehttp://www.myfoxhouston.com/clip/10349231/the-fox-faceoff-will-president-obama-visit-the-border 4951

bylaw, once they take custody of a minor by detaining them, the hhs is responsible for their welfare until they have a deportation hearing and are sent back to their country of origin. that's the way the law works. and legally you can't just dump minors back across the border. once they are stopped and detained, the government functions 'in loco parentis' until they are sent homeThe lawUnder
the Homeland Security Act of 2002, Congress transferred the care and
custody of unaccompanied minor immigrants from the former Immigration
and Naturalization Service (INS) to HHS.
In 2008, the William
Wilberforce Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act expanded
the responsibilities of HHS, and required that the children must be
placed "promptly" into the "least restrictive setting," that is in the
best interest of the child. The act, a bipartisan effort that expanded
on earlier efforts to protect unaccompanied children, was signed by
George W. Bush shortly before he left office.
The law mandates that
children be allowed to retain legal counsel and petition for the right
to stay in the U.S. at an immigration hearing. Due to an overwhelming
backlog in immigration cases -- there are currently over 360,000 pending
cases pending, according to data gathered by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University – the children often wait months, or years, for a judge to hear their case.

I'm not just talking about the minors here. Have you seen those undocumented adults go on buses towards the northern states? Clearly, the law needs a reform here. It is just not fair to tax payers and for those like myself and my family who followed the rules of the immigration process. God knows if we didn't comply appropriately, we would get deported and banned from entering the US for 10 years. 4951

The border issue has been going on for years yet it remains unsecured even with those fences and border patrol agents. Put a wall up and send national guards. How about they try that on for size? Or maybe someone with power is protecting that from getting fixed? Political gains perhaps? 4951

@LALEE: I don't know about you, but I want back the several thousand dollars we have spent to keep my tax-paying husband here legally. (That's fees and immigration lawyer fees we paid when we first started the process.)
