The real question here is exactly how aggressively were we throwing out illegal Haitians anyway?

Haitians basically control the heroin importation all up and down the east coast, so we weren't doing a whole lot about illegal haitians to begin with. How long will it last? Well, how long did it last for the Honduran refugees from Hurricaine Mitch in 1998. That's still going on.
We're still processing new applications for amnesty under the 1986 rules!
