WHY ARE THEY STILL HERE? DHS Monitoring Over 600,000 Illegal Immigrants With Criminal Records: Report; DHS is Monitoring 617,000 Illegal Immigrants With Criminal Records

DHS monitoring over 600,000 illegal immigrants with criminal records: report

It has been revealed that the Department of Homeland Security is currently aware of over 600,000 illegal immigrants who managed to enter the United States with criminal records.

The data was presented by House National Security, Border and Foreign Affairs Subcommittee Chairman Rep. Glenn Grothman during a hearing on Tuesday.

According to Grothman, of the over 6 million illegal immigrants who have been allowed into the country since Joe Biden was elected, 617,000 have either criminal convictions or pending criminal charges.

“The fact is that illegal aliens should not be in the country in the first place and able to commit these crimes,” Grothman said, noting that an analysis conducted by the Department of Public Safety revealed that such people “are more likely to be convicted of homicide, sexual assault, and kidnapping than the average Texan.”

“The solutions aren’t hard,” he added. “Secure the border, stop releasing illegal aliens into the country in droves, and when an illegal alien commits a crime in the community, turn them over to ICE, enforce the law, and remove them. It’s just that simple.”

DHS is monitoring 617,000 illegal immigrants with criminal records:

Some 264 illegal immigrants sit in jail in Tarrant County, Texas, and among them they face eight counts of murder, Sheriff Bill Waybourn will tell the House Oversight Committee on Tuesday.

The illegal immigrants also face 38 counts of assault with a deadly weapon, five counts of sexual assault, two counts of possession of child pornography, one count of intoxicated homicide and more than 200 other assorted counts.

“These offenders, [many of which] are gang members and outlaws, have left nothing untouched,” the sheriff will say, according to prepared remarks obtained by The Washington Times. “While I do not necessarily think these aliens have a higher crime rate, just the fact these people are illegal in our country and committed crimes is the impact.”

Sheriff Waybourn will testify to the National Security, Border and Foreign Affairs subcommittee, chaired by Rep. Glenn Grothman, Wisconsin Republican. The hearing is titled “How the Border Crisis Impacts Public Safety.”

Mr. Grothman, in remarks kicking off the hearing, will say the illegal immigrants flooding into the country have swollen the docket at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which is now monitoring more than 6 million illegal immigrants.

Some 617,000 of those either have criminal convictions or pending criminal charges, Mr. Grothman says.

“The fact is that illegal aliens should not be in the country in the first place and able to commit these crimes,” he says in prepared remarks. “The solutions aren’t hard. Secure the border, stop releasing illegal aliens into the country in droves, and when an illegal alien commits a crime in the community, turn them over to ICE, enforce the law, and remove them from the United States.”

The witnesses are poised to take a particular look at fentanyl and other illegal drugs pouring across the border. —>READ MORE HERE
