The Department of Homeland Security will request additional funding and broader authority to deport unaccompanied migrant children, NBC News reported (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/immigration/dhs-ask-congress-sweeping-authority-deport-unaccompanied-migrant-children-n988651) Thursday.
In a copy of a letter that agency secretary Kirstjen Nielsen (https://thehill.com/people/kirstjen-nielsen) will reportedly send to Congress soon, the DHS chief said that the limit on their ability to deport children is serving as "another dangerous 'pull' factor" for immigrants entering the country illegally.
DHS confirmed the existence of the letter when asked by The Hill.


The outlet reported that Nielsen's letter is expected to be delivered to lawmakers on Capitol Hill on Thursday night.
Nielsen’s letter noted that a legislative proposal was needed to address "root causes of the emergency."
Her solution also includes emergency funds to deal with the migrant flow, including what Nielsen predicts to be thousands of shelter beds for unaccompanied migrant children.
The funding would also cover more medical teams and vehicles to transport immigrants, according to the letter.

Good...ship 'em right the fuck back to wherever they came from.

It's really that simple.

"O.K. You want to file for immigration status based on refugee status? O.K. Is all this information correct? O.K. Please get on the bus, we are returning you to your country of origin and will inform you when your case is heard. Have a good day."

And that's the end of it.
