President Joe Biden's gutting of interior immigration enforcement is shielding from deportation illegal aliens who overstayed their visas, Republicans on the House Oversight and Reform Committee say.
In a letter to top Department of Homeland Security officials, exclusively obtained by the Washington Times's Stephen Dinan, 19 House Republicans accuse the Biden administration of using its so-called "Sanctuary country" orders to protect large portions of the illegal population - specifically those who have overstayed their visas.
The latest visa overstay report published by DHS this week revealed that from October 2019 to September 2020, nearly 685,000 foreign nationals who legally entered the U.S. overstayed their visas, becoming illegal aliens.
As Breitbart News has chronicled over the last year, Biden has imposed broad so-called "Sanctuary country" orders that prevent Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from arresting and deporting most of the 11 to 22 million illegal aliens living throughout the United States.
When rolling out the orders, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas said the orders ensure that "The majority" of illegal aliens in the U.S. "Are not priorities for removal."
The Republicans are DHS officials to provide all data related to illegal aliens deported from the U.S. as a result of interior immigration enforcement and a breakdown of all criminal illegal aliens arrested by ICE agents including their crimes and native countries.
As Breitbart News reported, DHS has failed to make public their annual report that details the number of illegal aliens arrested and deported by ICE agents throughout the prior 12 months.
