What do you think we should be doing differently?
These people come in, we conduct an interview and run all their identification against all the national and international databases that we have.
What else can be done without Congress allocating more resources? Without the facilities and personnel and funding to put more people in detention, you can't even delay the release of a greater proportion of these folks. You don't have anywhere to put them, or the resources to conduct any more thorough investigation. You don't want to allocate any more resources to the processing system, without which the folks who are released will be waiting for years and years for their hearing.
So what's your suggestion?
