Very noble if you ignore the utter lack of resources to do so.

We don't lack the resources to follow the law. What we lack are the resources to keep hundreds of thousands of people (or more) detained indefinitely while they wait years for their hearings. This isn't a unique situation, BTW - if we eliminated bail, we don't have the jail space to keep everyone locked up while they would be awaiting trial, either. We can follow the law, because the law doesn't require pre-hearing detention. If you want to pay a ton of money to detain people while they're awaiting their hearings, though, that's certainly a choice that Congress could make - but it's not one that's necessary to follow the law.
