So this bill would require penalties for people who reenter a second time. at least. in our country illegally. Certainly that is a good step. but it is not happening today. There is a deal going on among certain judges. and it has gotten to be a real problem for our immigration enforcement system. That is. local State judges. if they have an individual who Is about to be deported. often will cut the sentence and not make it the required sentence. and that would obviate their deportation from the country for being convicted of a felony. This would keep judges from going back and manipulating the criminal justice system to try to prevent a result that should naturally occur in the future. It has institutional removal program funding. This is important as a practical matter. It does not work to wait until a person has completed their jail time for a serious criminal offense. and then have the Federal Government start up a proposal to deport them. They run away. they do not show up to be deported. It is so obvious that that is happening. So we have a program. the institutional removal program. that does allow the Federal Government to take those people before they are released from jail and do the paperwork and commence the hearing so at the time of their departure. they are released into State prison for the serious offense they have committed. they would directly be deported. That only makes sense. We are doing some of that now. and this bill would provide extra money for that.
