Dope1: Question: When these people fail to show up for their court dates, will the democrats get behind mass deportations? I'll go ahead and answer: absolutely not.

We've gone over this. Either you're not paying attention or you don't like the data. OVERHWELMINGLY, asylum seekers appear for all their hearings.

A new report released today by the American Immigration Council examines 11 years of government data on the rate at which immigrants appear for hearings in U.S. immigration court. The report, “Measuring In Absentia Removal in Immigration Court,” concludes that an overwhelming 83% of immigrants attend their immigration court hearings, and those who fail to appear in court often did not receive notice or faced hardship in getting to court.

-- 83% of nondetained immigrants with completed or pending removal cases attended all of their hearings.
-- 96% of nondetained immigrants represented by a lawyer attended all of their hearings.
