Agencies are purchasing hotel rooms for the surge of illegal immigrants crossing the border using a loophole and "key words" which includes telling border agents they have a "credible fear" of drug cartels and being allowed entry into the United States.
Documents obtained by Fox News "show Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been paying for hotel rooms for dozens of recently arrived families to relieve overcrowding inside the San Ysidro and Otay Mesa, Calif., processing centers. Some ICE employees are working overtime and others have been asked to volunteer to work weekend shifts. “Duties include intake, placements, transports and release of family groups and unaccompanied minors,” according to a memo obtained.
According to sources, one day last week, 200 border-crossers came through the Otay Mesa Port of Entry asking for asylum while and approximately 550 overflowed inside the processing center there and in nearby San Ysidro.
Those rooms, the transport, the pay for man hours are all paid for by U.S. taxpayers.
