“The agency wants contractors to travel to homes in Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala, confirm that a deported person lives there and get that person to photograph their own face as proof that a fine notice was delivered…” From the article . Ok good luck with that.

Every dollar that has gone to ICE, CPB and DHS for the past 10 fucking years needs to be clawed back and given to the fucking victims of this gestapo

So we're going to blow through $36M in taxpayer money to hunt down poor people kicked out of a country where they hoped to earn a few bucks working in farm fields, construction and child care. Stupidity and corruption on an epic level.
