Subject: Re: NYC HS Students Forced....
The notion of hiring more judges and making it faster to get through the asylum process only works if there were ironclad assurances that the Biden administration (or any future democrat administration, for that matter) wouldn't all of a sudden game the system, change the rules, and keep the floodgates open.

I'm not sure why.

I understand the quid pro quo demand for amnesty. You want to make sure that in exchange for a one-time normalization of the immigration status of every one in the country unlawful, there will be a successful effort to prevent future people from entering unlawfully. Because the purpose of the amnesty is to solve the problem of people being here unlawfully. You don't want it reoccurring.

But hiring more judges so that the hearing process works properly....isn't like that? The problem you're trying to solve is that people are waiting too long for their hearings (because that causes adverse impacts in the communities they're in). But solving that problem itself prevents the problem from reoccurring. If you have sufficient judges to handle asylum hearings, then you have sufficient judges to handle asylum hearings. You don't need ironclad assumptions about some other part of the immigration system. Fixing the problem fixes the problem - the hearings get handled timely.

Am I missing something there?
