Immigrants seeking U.S. protections spend months in detention

Immigrants seeking U.S. protections spend months in detention 

It has been found that thousands of immigrants who seek protection in the U.S have been spending time in detention. Apparently, they have been waiting for the government to determine their cases and for what to be decided. American Civil Liberties and the Chicago based National Justice Center did a lawsuit against the government because they are spending tens of millions of taxpayer dollars on detentions. The detentions are only suppose to be held by a 10 days determination but they are being processed longer. The Obama administration has put into work and is working to set a priority on immigrants on detentions.  The government regulations are now trying for immigrants in a 10 day period to know if their case can be processed and heard by a judge. I agree with the lawsuit that is being filled because why have millions of immigrants on detentions if they aren't even doing anything to them. The limit of a 10 day period seems pretty good for their case to be heard by a judge. Hopefully with this new regulations everything will be fixed and the U.S tax money will be used wisely.
