Not as bad as some, e.g., Pence (link)
But then who does this surprise?
From the link below:
“The vast majority never show up for their hearing, you know, a year, 18 months, down the road.”
— Vice President Pence, in an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” June 23, 2019
Pence: “What we want: To end the days where people believe they can come into the country, make a claim of asylum from oppression or deprivation or violence in Central America or elsewhere, and then be released into the country on their own recognizance only to vanish into the nation.”
Jake Tapper, CNN: “Well, most of them do show up to their hearings.”
Pence: “Ninety percent of the people never show up for their hearing in the months ahead. The overwhelming majority, plus-90 percent, don’t show up.”
— Exchange on CNN’s “State of the Union,” June 23, 2019
