Alejandro Mayorkas finally admitted on Sunday that 12,000 Haitian migrants have been released into the U.S., claiming that number could go up as 5,000 other cases are still being processed and confusingly says not stopping illegal immigration is a ‘proud tradition.’
‘Approximately, I think it’s about 10,000 or so – 12,000 thousand,’ Mayorkas told Fox News Sunday when asked how many have already been released into the country.
‘It could be even higher,’ he added. ‘The number that are returned could be even higher. What we do is we follow the law as Congress has passed it.’
