Self Deportation

[Denver_Mcanally]

I propose a new program that gives illegal immigrants the option to self deport.

Illegal aliens and their families would be able to voluntarily register with this program. Once they have registered, they would then leave the country voluntarily.

Potential incentives could be:
• monetary payment - for example, after checking themselves into a valid border crossing, some amount of money could be sent to a foreign address or bank account that is provided at registration.
• begin a fast legal immigration process - an expedited legal immigration process can be created and made available to illegal aliens who self deport.

This program has the potential to drastically increase the rate of deportations while minimizing the cost of forced deportations.

Denver, I applaud the concern about deportation . The optics could be terrible and a President only has so much political capital.

I’d love to hear more ideas like yours that focus on the easiest ways to start.
