Border Patrol agents were so overwhelmed by illegal immigrants on the southern border last year that they resorted to issuing a newly developed “notice to report” to tens of thousands of individuals before releasing them into the United States.
The notice requested the illegal alien to report to a local Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) office within 60 days, where they'd be issued a “notice to appear”—an official document that includes a date for their first immigration court hearing for their deportation proceedings.
