LETTER: Biden’s massive mess at the border costing taxpayers

The United States has released more than 2.3 million migrants at the border since 2021, according to news reports. So for three years — free rent, food, phone and health insurance. The taxpayers have to pay for all of this free stuff. It totals billions of our money. Yes, billions. So tell me how anyone us still voting Democratic. Complete mystery to me. --https://www.reviewjournal.com/opinion/letters/letter-bidens-massive-mess-at-the-border-costing-taxpayers-2979119/?utm_campaign=widget&utm_medium=section_row&utm_source=homepage&utm_term=LETTER%3A%20Biden%E2%80%99s%20massive%20mess%20at%20the%20border%20costing%20taxpayers

You might want to read what US law requires when someone shows up at the US border or in the US requesting asylum.  In a nutshell, we are required to allow them to stay until they get a hearing and then until their appeals process is exhausted. All the crap coming out of the pie holes of conservative politicians and the conservative media about Biden doing nothing about immigration is nothing more than bullshit. Biden has to follow the law.

When David is refuted and schooled, all he has is insults.

That is true he thinks a random guy on Facebook is more knowledgeable about the law than the ABA.

From Mark's link

 

The Refugee Act of 1980 amended the U.S. Immigration and Nationality Act. The Refugee Act raised the annual ceiling for refugees from 17,400 to 50,000

 

The limit is 50,000 PER YEAR.  That means we reached our cap already for 2024.

 

created a process for reviewing and adjusting the refugee ceiling to meet eang doesmergencies and required annual consultation between Congress and the president.

 

The biden gang does not follow this law.  They do what they feel like.

 

The act also changed the definition of “refugee” to a person with a “well-founded fear of persecution

 

Another rule not followed.  Border Patrol takes names and sends them on their way 

 

Asylum seekers are also supposed to be detained until there is a hearing.  Instead the biden gang releases them into the country.  DHS has lost 25% of the ones released into the country

And now NYC is closing schools again to house illegals.

  This affirms that Mark is full of shit.

Nope, there is a distinction between a refugee and someone seeking Asylum. Read the entire article.  There is no cap on people seeking asylum. We don't arrest people for misdemeanor offenses.  If you are concerned about losing them before their hearing you should be enraged over Abott's shipping them out of the area they crossed in.  That guarantees the government will lose track of them and they will miss their hearings in Texas.
