And yet the Bush administration is talking about opening the floodgates and letting even more immigrants in and making legal those who broke our laws to get her. Amazing!
According to U.S. immigration and customs enforcement more than 375,000 known illegal aliens have been ordered deported, but have disappeared before immigration hearings. The 80,000 among them are absconders who have served time in prison on felony convictions.
