The House Judiciary Committee and the subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement released a report Wednesday detailing the Biden administration’s spending of millions of taxpayer dollars on services that support illegal immigrants.
“[F]ar from imposing consequences on illegal aliens and removing them from the country, the Biden Administration encourages illegal aliens to arrive at the border, chauffeurs them into the interior, and then rewards them with concierge services, all on the taxpayers’ dime and at the expense of public safety,” the report stated.
“From the beginning of his term, President Biden has sought to reimagine immigration detention, which is mandated by the Immigration and Nationality Act, in favor of releasing illegal aliens and relying on so-called Alternatives to Detention (ATD) programs,” the report added.
The interim staff report further stated that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) referred illegal migrants to get services from groups like Planned Parenthood.
“Taxpayer-funded programs like the Young Adult Case Management Program (YACMP) and the Case Management Pilot Program (CMPP) provide a wide range of taxpayer-funded services to illegal aliens, including legal orientation, social services referrals, mental health support, and services to assist illegal aliens in returning to their home countries after being removed from the United States,” House Judiciary Republicans said in a press release.
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, in June requested that the Appropriations Committee prohibit funding for social services provided to illegal aliens.
