“Catch and release” programs are going to end, according to Michael Chertoff and the report at Fox.

It looks like we may get some serious action on immigration. At least I hope that is what this is a step towards.

Update: Chris Kelly on The Immigration Blog says the Catch and Release only applies to non-Mexicans. The government says it would be “too expensive” to rid the country of all illegal immigrants, especially the millions from Mexico.

I can understand their point. But we shouldn’t be giving them welfare, Medicaid, or help to buy houses here, regardless of their status. That costs money too.
