The President of the National Border Patrol Council testified before the House Judiciary Committee this morning in Washington DC.
Brandon Judd told lawmakers agents are told to stand down and there is essentially no security at the US Southern Border.
Illegal immigrants take the train to America.
The Washington Examiner reported:
In a shocking reversal of policy, U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents are being told to release illegal immigrants and no longer order them to appear at deportation hearings, essentially a license to stay in the United States, a key agent testified Thursday.
What’s more, the stand down order includes a requirement that the whereabouts of illegals released are not to be tracked.
“We might as well abolish our immigration laws altogether,” suggested agent Brandon Judd, president of the National Border Patrol Council.
Testifying on the two-year border surge of immigrant youths, Judd said the policy shift was prompted by Obama administration “embarrassment” that just over half of illegals ordered to appear in court actually do.
The hearing on border security was held this morning.
