The Department of Homeland Security<\/a> is offering $1,000 to illegal aliens who opt to self-deport via the CBP Home App, but Sen. Ruben Gallego, D-Ariz., floated the idea of charging fines and granting work visas instead.<\/p>\n “Why don\u2019t we make them pay a $5k fine, go through a background check and give them a work visa for a few years, renewable with good behavior,” he asked in a Monday post on X<\/a>.<\/p>\n Gallego suggested in another post<\/a> that immigrants would pay for the cost of their background check.\u00a0<\/p>\n DHS UNLEASHES POSSIBLE MONEY-SAVING MEASURE FOR ILLEGAL ALIENS TO SELF-DEPORT: \u2018SAFEST OPTION\u2019<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n “Make them pay. That is what we do now for other immigrants. Part of the filing fee,” noted Gallego, who defeated Republican Kari Lake in Arizona’s 2024 U.S. Senate contest.<\/p>\n The $1,000 offer comes as the Trump administration cracks down on illegal immigration and seeks to conduct a mass deportation effort.<\/a><\/p>\n ICE NABS ILLEGAL MIGRANT AFTER BLUE CITY AUTHORITIES DROP HOME INVASION, CHILD ABDUCTION CHARGES<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n “Any illegal alien who uses the CBP Home App to self-deport will also receive a stipend of $1,000 dollars, paid after their return to their home country has been confirmed through the app,” a DHS release noted. “Even with the cost of the stipend, it is projected that the use of CBP Home will decrease the costs of a deportation by around 70 percent. Currently, the average cost to arrest, detain, and remove an illegal alien is $17,121.”<\/p>\n DHS also indicates that illegal aliens<\/a> will receive travel assistance to return to their home country.<\/p>\n ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT RELEASED BY BIDEN ADMIN PLEADS NOT GUILTY TO MURDER OF GEORGIA GRANDMOTHER<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n
