I just read in The Guardian news about an organization that helps immigrants to receive bail so they can leave detention centers. You can contribute to their work by going to their website https://www.immdef.org/opportunities
If enough outraged Americans help out maybe we can make a dent in this problem.
statistics show that 90% of illegals released, disappear into the population, most never to be found again.
Hummmmm!
Fake news.Quote:

Most do show up for their court hearing
and of course they've done all they can to stack the deck against them. Not really a fair charge, it misses the real cruelty of the situation.Quote:

Rep. Rob Wittman says 85 percent of immigrants skip their court hearings
From your linked article:Quote:

"Our ruling
Wittman said "85 percent" of immigrants in the U.S. don’t show up for their court hearings.
The actual percentage is far lower. DOJ statistics show 28 percent of migrants didn’t keep their court dates in 2017 and 11 percent of asylees didn’t show up. Even a think tank that says DOJ undercounts the no-shows comes nowhere close to the 85 percent figure.
Wittman deserves credit for acknowledging his mistake - the day after we contacted him - on the same radio show that he made the statement.
But his original claim of 85 percent has been circulating for years and we rate it False."
Congressman Rob Wittman represents the 1st District of Virginia. He serves on the House Natural Resources Committee and the House Armed Services Committee, where he is the Chairman of the Seapower and Projection Forces Subcommittee.Quote:

How is Congressman Rob Wittman connected to DHA?
Sure would be nice to see some documentation for that claim of yours..
What ever credibility Wittman has, I believe the Acting Secretary of DHS, Kevin McAleenan, Trumps (ha ha) him.
