According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform’s


 2017 report, illegal immigrants, and their children, cost American


taxpayers a net $116 billion annually -- roughly $7,000 per alien


annually. While high, this number is not an outlier: a recent study by


the Heritage Foundation found that low-skilled immigrants


(including those here illegally) cost Americans trillions over the


course of their lifetimes, and a study from the National Economics


 Editorial found that illegal immigration costs America over $140


billion annually. As it stands, illegal immigrants are a massive


burden on American taxpayers.

Tom Cotton: Joe Biden Is Keeping U.S. Closed for Americans, Leaving Border Open for Illegal Aliens

President Joe Biden’s administration is getting blasted by lawmakers, local officials, and critics for advocating lockdowns and restrictions for Americans during the Chinese coronavirus crisis while seemingly opening the nation’s borders to illegal aliens who can flout Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines.

As Breitbart News has extensively reported, the Biden administration has resumed the Catch and Release program wherein border crossers are apprehended and promptly released into the interior of the United States. These border crossers are not required to test negative for the coronavirus before their release into American communities.

Instead, many border crossers are being put up in high-rise hotels, as the New York Times reported, and quarantining for about 10 to 14 days before they are freed into the U.S. interior. At the same time, the Biden administration is weighing a plan that would require American citizens to test negative for the coronavirus before flying domestically.

“Just recently we learned that they are letting illegal aliens who show up to our border into the country without any coronavirus testing,” Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) told Fox News.

“Unlike what you have to do when you want to fly into this country on an airplane, or reportedly what Joe Biden is thinking about requiring all Americans do to fly domestically,” Cotton said:

Just think about that. Illegal aliens can come into our country without vaccination, without even a negative test, but we may not be able to fly in our own country without a test. Joe Biden is keeping American closed, but he’s keeping our borders open. [Emphasis added]

Likewise, Yuma County, Arizona, Sheriff Leon Wilmot sent a letter to Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) last week in which he called the Catch and Release program of untested border crossers “a particularly dangerous approach.”

“There is currently no protocol for testing any of these people for the COVID-19 virus nor is there any support being offered by the federal government to house, feed, medically treat or transport these immigrants,” Wilmot wrote in the letter to Sinema.

Fox News’s Tucker Carlson slammed the Biden administration in a segment, saying the policy is “designed to humiliate” and “demoralize” American citizens.

“When we release people who break our laws without even bothering to test them for the virus, the same virus they’ve used as a pretext for wrecking your life, what they’re really saying in the clearest possible terms is ‘We don’t like you,'” Carlson said. “This isn’t a policy, it’s an act of aggression.”

National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd said in a statement that federal immigration officials are not testing border crossers that they release “so we’re releasing people without knowing, which obviously puts the public at risk.”

Unofficial Catch and Release totals suggest that federal immigration officials, just in the last week, have released more than 1,000 border crossers — with no coronavirus test requirements — into the U.S. interior.

Tom Cotton: Joe Biden Will Keep Foreign Drug Dealers in U.S.

New York Frees Six Drug Dealers Accused of Running $7M Fentanyl Ring

Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) slammed President Joe Biden’s administration amid evidence that his deputies want to minimize the deportation of illegal migrants who are caught dealing deadly drugs.

“It’s the Biden administration policy to allow illegal aliens to stay in America even after they: -Deal fentanyl and heroin -Commit fraud -Commit assault -Drive drunk -Launder money,” Cotton tweeted February 8.

“More than 80,000 Americans died from drug overdoses last year. And the Biden administration just announced that deporting illegal alien cartel members who deal with fentanyl and heroin is no longer a priority for his administration,” he added.

For more than 20 years, many Americans have been killed by drunk-driving illegals, including many killed after federal and state officials decide not to deport illegals.

The Washington Post reported February 7 how Biden’s deputies are changing deportation priorities for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency:

While ICE’s new operational plans are not yet final, interim instructions sent to senior officials point to a major shift in enforcement. Agents will no longer seek to deport immigrants for crimes such as driving under the influence and assault, and will focus instead on national security threats, recent border crossers and people completing prison and jail terms for aggravated felony convictions.

“Generally, these convictions would not include drug based crimes (less serious offenses), simple assault, DUI, money laundering, property crimes, fraud, tax crimes, solicitation, or charges without convictions,” acting director Tae Johnson told senior officials in a Thursday email advising them on how to operate while new guidelines are finalized.

“The priority for the enforcement of immigration laws will be on those who are imposing a national security threat, of course, a public safety threat, and on recent arrivals,” Biden spokeswoman Jen Psaki said in the February 8 White House press briefing:

Nobody is saying that DUIs or assaults are acceptable behavior, and those arrested for such activities should be tried and sentenced as appropriate by local law enforcement. But we’re talking about the prioritization of who is going to be deported from the country.

The priority list for deportations also excludes migrants who take American’ jobs and wages. This policy will largely abandon the task of protecting Americans’ right to a national labor market.

Biden has repeatedly declared he wants to make the nation’s immigration system more “fair” to migrants. Since January 20, he has minimized deportations, stopped construction of the border wall, offered an amnesty to migrants, broken anti-migration deals with three counties, and has lowered legal barriers to migration.

However, he has said little or nothing about how he will protect Americans’ rights, wages, safe streets, and reasonable housing from foreign criminals or job seekers. A February 2 statement said:

President Biden’s strategy is centered on the basic premise that our country is saferstronger, and more prosperous with a fair, safe and orderly immigration system that welcomes immigrants, keeps families together, and allows people—both newly arrived immigrants and people who have lived here for generations—to more fully contribute to our country.

Amid Biden’s inrush of migrants and shutdown of deportations, more than 20 million Americans are unemployed or are stuck in part-time jobs.

Biden is also rolling back protections for American graduates, who have lost at least one million jobs because Fortune 500 CEOs and their subcontractors have hired more than 1 million foreign graduates for jobs sought by Americans.

In a separate tweet, Cotton lambasted Biden’s team for dropping a rule that would protect American graduate from losing jobs to H-1B graduate visa-workers who are willing to work for low wages in the hope of getting green cards:

For years, a wide variety of pollsters have shown deep and broad opposition to labor migration — or the hiring of temporary contract workers into the jobs sought by young U.S. graduates.

The multiracialcross-sexnon-racistclass-basedpriority-driven, and solidarity-themed opposition to labor migration coexists with generally favorable personal feelings toward legal immigrants and immigration in theory.

GOP Report on Joe Biden’s Migration Policies Ignores Damage to Jobs, Wages

President Joe Biden’s lax border policies will deliver “an unending flood of foreign nationals into the United States,” says a new report by two senior GOP representatives that ignores the economic damage of labor migration.

“The Trump Administration made the U.S. safer,” says the February 8 report by Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), the top Republican on the judiciary committee, and Rep. Tom McClintock (R-CA), the top Republican on the committee’ s immigration and citizenship panel.

The report cites “security” roughly 40 times, it mentions “safe” or “safety” 40 times, and gives 37 mentions of  “criminal,” including this sentence: “President Biden will reinstitute ‘catch and release’ policies that will allow dangerous criminal aliens to roam free in American neighborhoods.”

The report also highlights the economic costs of supporting poor migrants with a section on Biden’s plan to cut President Donald Trump’s “public charge” regulation.

But the GOP report is just the first in a series, a House staffer told Breitbart News. Expect more economic analysis in the future reports, he said.

Rob Law, director of regulatory affairs and immigration policy at the Center for Immigration studies said:

It is great that the GOP is recognizing that immigration policy is economic policy. The supply of cheap labor has an economic impact on Americans, and it disproportionally harms middle America .. [by] outsourcing jobs from the middle of the country to the coasts.

This first report completely ignores the economic impact of migration, which is the impact felt most by Americans as they try to get jobs, raise their wages, and buy homes.

The 32-page report does not mention wages or salaries, rising home prices, or the damage to Americans’ education in their schools and universities.

The report ignores the impact of visa workers. They include the million-plus H-1Bs and OPTs who take white-collar jobs from U.S. graduates, or the H-2A program, which takes work from Americans in the agriculture sector.

The report also does not mention the growing damage to Americans’ innovation, research, or even productivity, by the flood of cheap and compliant foreign labor.

The report has a few glancing references to economics. For example, the report suggests that Biden’s push to raise the inflow of refugees may hurt Americans:

President Biden promised to set the refugee ceiling at 125,000 refugees initially and to raise it annually. This arbitrary number is nothing more than virtue signaling to the radical left. At a time when Americans are suffering from a global pandemic and the American people are trying to jump start the economy, admitting high numbers of refugees is a poor decision that will only exacerbate economic challenges.

The 32-page report also has one mention of American’ worksites, many of which are being filled up by legal immigrants, illegals, and visa workers:

Interior security policies include … worksite enforcement to ensure employers do not hire and employ illegal aliens, and the arrest and removal of deportable aliens. Where President Trump enhanced immigration enforcement on the interior of the U.S., President Biden has pledged to reduce interior enforcement, a move that will only endanger American citizens and legal immigrants.

The report is also silent about immigration’s impact on the geographic spread of new wealth. By funneling extra workers to coastal investors, the government’s immigration policy shifts investment, jobs, wages, careers, and wealth away from small towns and inland states over to large cities and the coastal states.

For example, Jordan’s Ohio got just $1.5 billion of venture capital investment during the last quarter of 202o, according to data produced by SSTI.org. That is just $125 per person and is far less than the $2,353 per person share investment in Massachusetts, where companies and universities import many OPT, J-1, and H-1B workers.

Americans’ right to their labor market has long been diluted by the federal government’s willingness to import more labor for use by companies. The extra labor is delivered by legal immigrants, illegal migrants, refugeeslegal visa workerswork-permit foreign graduatestemporarily legal illegal aliensasylum claimants, and work licenses for illegal aliens.

Decades of data and experiences have persuaded the vast majority of Americans — and many elite economists, lobbyists, and legislators — that migration moves money out of employees’ pockets and into the stock market wealth of investors and their progressive supporters.

Migration moves money from employees to employers, from families to investors, from young to old, from children to their parents, from homebuyers to real estate investors, and from the central states to the coastal states.

Migration allows investors and CEOs to skimp on labor-saving technology, sideline U.S. minorities, ignore disabled peopleexploit stoop labor in the fields, shortchange labor in the cities, impose tight control and pay cuts on American professionals, corral technological innovation by minimizing the employment of innovative American graduates, undermine Americans’ labor rights, and redirect progressive journalists to cheerlead for Wall Street’s priorities and claims.

For years, a wide variety of pollsters have shown deep and broad opposition to labor migration — or the hiring of temporary contract workers into the jobs sought by young U.S. graduates.

The multiracialcross-sexnon-racistclass-basedpriority-driven, and solidarity-themed opposition to labor migration coexists with generally favorable personal feelings toward legal immigrants and immigration in theory.
