UNDOCUMENTED WILL BE INVITED TO “SELF-DEPORT”

US ICE will be announcing a program that will allow those who are here unlawfully to turn themselves over to ICE agents and self-deport:  No incentive, no waiver of the bar of inadmissibility, just turn themselves over to be processed and go home. 

For once, both pro and anti-immigrant organizations agree, this is a ridiculous idea.  Why would anyone participate in such a program when they could simply leave the US without turning themselves over to anybody?  Sometimes I have to do a double-take when I read some of the ideas our elected and appointed officials come up with!
