Nearly Half Of Federal Crime Immigration Related

[tycho1572]

Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows illegal immigrants cost taxpayers a lot of $. It's one of the many reasons why Trump kicked Hillary' dumb ass.

“It is particularly timely, since President Obama has just announced his FY 2017 refugee number – up 29 percent, and since we have seen the 2017 plans for 19 vendor offices in Michigan to bring in 38 percent more refugees than in FY 2016 including via new offices in Flint and Traverse City.”

Nearly 90 percent of all Middle Eastern refugees assigned to the United States by the U.N. have had their applications approved.

The State Department has been approving applications at an “astonishing rate” as the administration tries to meet this year’s goal, with just 17 days left in the fiscal year, the Washington Times reports. More than 3,600 refugees were admitted in one three-day stretch last week, including 600 Syrians, bringing the total for the year to more than 77,000 as of Tuesday, according to the Times.

The increased influx of refugees has left some communities struggling with the cost of housing and educating them. Mayors in Amarillo, Texas; Athens, Georgia; Manchester, New Hampshire and others have sought to slow the flow of refugees to their communities.

The House Judiciary Committee is pushing legislation that would give local officials a say in whether they can handle an influx.

“We must remain compassionate toward refugees, but we also need to make sure that we use common sense,” committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte, R-Va., told the Times. “Unfortunately, President Obama unilaterally increases the number of refugees resettled in the United States each year and gives little thought as to how it will impact local communities.”

Obama spending millions to find summer jobs - for refugees - The American Mirror

The Obama administration wants to make sure Utica, New York’s young refugees aren’t without a job, so he’s spending millions to make sure it doesn’t happen.

“Access to a job in the summer and beyond can make all the difference to a young person – especially those who don’t have access to many resources and opportunities,” President Obama said of his new Summer Opportunity Project.

The project spends a total of $21 million on a variety of programs in 11 communities nationwide with the focus of helping young people find summer work, and permanent part-time jobs, the White House and U.S. Department of Labor announced Monday.

At least $2 million of the total will be set aside to help 400 refugee students in Utica, New York get to work through the New Americans Career Pathways Project, the Utica Observer-Dispatch reports.

“The New Americans Career Pathways project will provide in-school youth with summer jobs and academic support for 400 students in the refugee populations of Utica, NY,” according to a White House Fact Sheet. “The students will receive summer job work experience and academic tutoring in English and Math, and support in finding part-time jobs.”

The multi-million refugee employment program is, however, only one among many that will receive a helping hand from the government over the summer.

“Since 2009, more than fifteen Federal agencies have launched dozens of initiatives and partnerships with over 1,800 rural, tribal and urban communities,” according to the White House statement Monday. “Building on that work, the White House and 16 federal agencies announce an effort today to provide tailored support from the federal government to 16 Summer Impact Hubs to upgrade and expand their summer jobs, learning, meals, and violence reduction programs for young people this summer and year-round.”​

You consider running across the border for a better life to be a "crime " equal to rape or robbery??

More intellectual dishonesty from the right . For shame .

Actually when you have literally thousands of people who don't belong here that have had to steal and commit crimes in their own country to survive, what do you think they're going to do here where the streets are supposedly paved with gold?

Thank you, goddamn its not rocket science.

There are massive costs to illegal immigration and the government hides it from us to prevent the predicted backlash

What backlash? I'm not sure I understand your argument. Should the Fed spend less on pursuing undocumented aliens?

Exactly. What backlash!!!

The feds are hiding the true costs of not only enforcement but processing and care of illegals. Nevermind the crime that goes along with drug traffickers and other related issues. Then there's the millions that have been put on Obamacare and on welfare.

They're hidden but you found them? What "backlash" do you want? More money spent on fighting illegal immigration?

Up till now the federal government doesn't make it easy for anyone to find out exactly how much Illegal Immigration is costing us. You folks bellyache about how much Trump is cutting from Meals on Wheels but the fact is Democrats are bringing in millions of people to soak up all of our benefits. You know.....benefits like Medicaid, Medicare, Social Security, and everything else. How much did Obama spend bringing Syrian refugees here last year? How much did he spend to get them registered to vote?
Refugee Resettlement Fact Sheet

Refugees, successful asylum seekers, trafficking victim visa holders, “Cuban-Haitian Entrants” (which are mostly Cuban), S.I.V’s (for Iraqis and Afghanis) and other smaller humanitarian admission groups are eligible for ALL federal, state and local welfare programs 30 days after arrival.

Refugee access to welfare on the same basis as a U.S. citizen has made the program a global magnet.

The federal programs available to them include:

∙ Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) formerly known as AFDC
∙ Medicaid
∙ Food Stamps
∙ Public Housing
∙ Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
∙ Social Security Disability Insurance
∙ Administration on Developmental Disabilities (ADD) (direct services only)
∙ Child Care and Development Fund
∙ Independent Living Program
∙ Job Opportunities for Low Income Individuals (JOLI)
∙ Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
∙ Postsecondary Education Loans and Grants
∙ Refugee Assistance Programs
∙ Title IV Foster Care and Adoption Assistance Payments (if parents are ⌠qualified immigrants – refugees, asylees, etc)
∙ Title XX Social Services Block Grant Funds
​

You're not answering the question, you're just pointing out, again, that you think the government is spending too much on illegal immigration. Okay, and?

A border wall that will be funneled under does not reduce the spending. (It increases it) Something like 40% of illegal immigrants are people on Visas that simply stayed when they expired. The "wall" won't stop them.

So a 60% decrease isn't good enough for you?
Oh....and a lack of will to enforce the law led to such a prevalence of overstays. You really don't know just how much more effective immigration enforcement would be if we stopped allowing illegals to stay, and more importantly, stopped encouraging them to come here in the first place.

There won't be a 60% decrease because of a wall. You can't be that stupid. Nobody can be that stupid.

Your OP bitches about the cost of law enforcement around illegal immigration. Nothing you've talked about will decrease those "hidden costs" that have your panties twisted.
