DHS to push for criminal charges against all border-jumpers

[M_A_G_A]

Homeland Security will now refer every migrant nabbed jumping the U.S.-Mexico border to federal prosecutors under a directive Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen issued last week, in a move that puts serious teeth behind the administration’s goal of putting teeth behind immigration laws.

Prosecutions have long been the exception rather than the rule, with most people who jump the border put into civil deportation proceedings.

But illegal entry is a misdemeanor crime and attempting to sneak back in after a previous deportation is a felony, and Ms. Nielsen said it’s time the government starts treating them as such.
