Whenever Gary Miller gets protestors at his office to push for immigration reform he trots out his Chief of Staff Chris Marsh to reiterate the same Conservative talking points about border security first, immigration reform second, and a path to citizenship never.
However, I just recently found out about the Detention Bed Mandate operated by the privately owned prison in Adelanto from local news reports. The detention bed mandate requires a quota of 34,000 undocumented immigrants be kept awaiting deportation AT ALL TIMES. I first heard about it on NPR and was shocked that this is happening in the Inland Empire.
The cost to taxpayers is about $2 Billion dollars a year.
Make no mistake this is what Rep. Gary Miller is talking about when he talks about border security.
