    What due process do you expect for a baby? 10 years of lawyers going back and forth?

      God Republicans are dumber than a box of rocks.

      Yes the toddlers get due process with a lawyer representing their case IN COURT. It’s not hard to understand, a fourth grader could understand this concept.

      Which btw have you read over your own posted source on immigration and how unlawful presence is a civil infraction and not a criminal one? Or do you still not understand your own citation?

      I agree that if they’re found to be here illegally, they should be given the choice of whether their American children should remain with them when they’re deported.

      I think this should only occur after they receive due process.

      The way to avoid delays in judgment is not to do away with due process. That’s trying to cure the disease (dysfunction) by treating the symptoms.

      The way to solve it is by dramatically increasing the number of immigration judges to help reach resolutions quickly. Thousands more. That’s a constructive change, not a destructive change. One is long-lasting; one only lasts as long as this administration. Both parties have failed at dramatically expanding the immigration courts like they should have, because this is a political issue they can campaign on.

      But constructive changes are still the right way to improve the system.

      THE SAME AS FOR EVERYONE IN THE LEGAL SYSTEM YOU ASS

      If they’re in court, they deserve, and are required by law, to have proper representation!
