NAFTA GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT JOE BIDEN - FUCK THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS! - MY CRONIES AND WALL STREET DEMAND ENDLESS WAVES OF INVADING 'CHEAP' LABOR AND BY LYING LAWYER MAYORKAS IS ORCHESTRATING IT NOW!!!

“The Democrats had abandoned their working-class base to chase what they pretended was a racial group when what they were actually chasing was the momentum of unlimited migration”.      DANIEL GREENFIELD   

The shared goals between the Chamber and Biden are in direct contrast to the opinions of most Americans. The latest Rasmussen Reports survey, for example, shows that 75 percent of likely U.S. voters said they want less legal immigration — including nearly 4-in-10 who want current legal immigration levels cut in more than half.

Joel Kotkin: The Middle-Class Will Revolt Against Progressives

The college-trained progressives in Joe Biden’s White House are creating a bipartisan revolt by ordinary, middle-class Americans, says Joel Kotkin, a left-of-center California demographer who has long been critical of Silicon Valley’s political demands.

“A specter is haunting America, a great revolt that threatens to dwarf the noxious rebellion led by Trump … a new middle-class rebellion against the excesses of the Left,” Kotkin says in a June 4 article for Newsweek.

He continues:

This new middle-class rebellion is being bolstered by a wide-ranging intellectual rebellion by traditional liberals against the Left’s dogmatism and intolerance. Indeed, what we’re about to see has the potential to reprise the great shift among old liberals that had them embracing Reagan in reaction to the Left’s excesses of that generation.

Biden’s policies on race, housing, hiring, “equity,” and crime are deeply unpopular among many Americans, whether white, black, or Latino, he argues. Biden is similarly losing the middle class on immigration,” he wrote.

He said the Democrats’ education, anti-patriotism, crime, energy, and jobs policies are also harmful to many ordinary Americans:

Major pushback on how the progressive Left sees American history is also brewing. Americans by and large remain patriotic, including the poor and working class. This patriotism stands in stark contrast to the prevailing view among progressives, which casts America as the intrinsically and irredeemably evil spawn of slaveholders and racists. This simply does not constitute a popular program to the middle and lower classes, a gap that could become more and more meaningful—especially as the message of the Left spreads.

California shows where progressives will drag Americans unless there is a revolt against their green war on jobs, he argues:

California provides a precursor for the emerging climate regime. Our state’s fixation on renewable energy, along with the closure of natural gas and nuclear plants, has helped drive the cost of electricity and gas to the highest in the continental U.S. It has also systematically undermined key blue collar industries like energy, construction and manufacturing, which have stagnated or shrunk, while regulations designed for climate reasons have helped boost home prices to the nation’s highest.

However, Kotkin downplays the deep impact of labor migration on Americans’ wages, housing costs, and heartland states.

Still, Kotkin is getting praise from mainstream politicians, including J.D. Vance, who is now running for an Ohio Senate seat as a Republican.

Vance has a matching criticism of the nation’s investor-dominated economy. He wrote in 2020:

The [coronavirus] has revealed an American economy built on consumption, reliant for production on regimes either indifferent or actively hostile to our national interest. Production, where it still exists in our country, clusters in megacities, where “knowledge economy” workers live uptown from the low-wage servants (disproportionately immigrants) who clean their laundry, care for their children, and serve their food.

Perhaps we shouldn’t build our cities like that. Perhaps we should make things in America. And if not all things, then at least enough so that the next time China unleashes a plague, it can’t threaten us with a loss of medicines and protective equipment.

In recent days, even Joe Biden and his commerce secretary have championed wage and training policies that contradict Wall Street’s demand for more imported consumers, renters, and workers.

NBC News Debunks Mayorkas ‘Border Is Closed’ Claim

Alejandro Mayorkas, Joe’s Biden’s border chief, has repeatedly claimed that “the border is closed” — and now one of the main establishment TV networks finally took the time to refute his claim.

NBC News’s Julia Ainsley reported June 2:

When he took office, President Joe Biden loosened rules at the border, letting children without parents cross — but agents were supposed to expel all other undocumented migrants.

The policy allows the Biden administration to say, “The border is closed.”

In reality, the border is not closed. Under Biden, the determination of who stays and who goes has become a lottery with winners and losers.

The news segment was not produced as a “Fact-Check” of Mayorkas, who is not mentioned in the article, even though he is the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

But it is a veiled criticism of Mayorkas for repeatedly claiming the border is closed.

“The border is closed,” Mayorkas told an ill-informed Rep. Chuck Fleischmann (R-TN) in a May 26 hearing.

“The border is closed,” Mayorkas told a roomful of powerless White House reporters on May 31.

A DHS official backtracked slightly on Mayorkas’s claim, telling NBC that:

The Biden administration has made it clear that our borders are not open, people should not make the dangerous journey, and individuals and families are subject to border restrictions, including expulsion.

Mayorkas, who insists the United States is a “Nation of Immigrants,” uses small-scale exemptions in immigration law to welcome large-scale inflows of economic migrants.

In April, Mayorkas’s supposedly closed-border policies — or “not open” policies — helped at least 60,000 job seekers to cross the southern border, including illegal “got-aways,” youths claiming to be victimized children, adults with young children, and deported migrants who want to join their migrant children who remained to apply for asylum.

Mayorkas also approved 22,000 extra H-2B visa workers, removed Trump-era curbs on white-collar visa workers, renewed work permits for at least 100,000 Haitian migrants, began awarding work permits to many thousands of Venezuelan migrants, and continued processing the roughly one million legal migrants who are allowed into the United States each year.

Tonight on @NBCNightlyNews: @JuliaEAinsley reports from the Rio Grande Valley. The Biden admin. says the border is closed, but some who have crossed have been allowed to stay.

Not all migrants get Mayorkas’s welcome.

Many are quickly selected for return to Mexico, as others are allowed to blend into U.S. society via an unpredictable, semi-random process. “The determination of who stays and who goes has become a lottery with winners and losers,” NBC News noted, adding:

While they sat on the curb, waiting to find out what U.S. officials would do with them, 15 single adult men who had been caught crossing the border a few days earlier were released to a nearby shelter, where they waited for flights and buses that would take them to cities across the U.S.

Mayorkas and his allies describe his half-open border as “humane.” Yet those “humane” policies are causing huge damage to many migrants because Mayorkas does not have the public or legal support to welcome the many migrants who hope to enter via Mayorkas’s small side doors.

On June 3, the Associated Press described a migrant who lost Mayorkas’s lottery after mortgaging her home to pay a coyote for transport to the border:

[Alvina Jerónimo Pérez ] put the house up as collateral to pay the smuggler $7,700. “The deal was that when we had arrived there, we were going to pay that money and they would return (the deed), but it wasn’t possible,” she said.

…

In March 2020, she and her daughter Yessenia, then 14, left Tizamarte. Three weeks later they were caught entering Texas. They were deported a week after that.

When Jerónimo realized they would be sent back, she cried. “I thought of everything the trip had cost me. I asked myself ‘What am I going to do?’ I’ve lost everything.”

“Jerónimo’s story is similar to that of thousands of Guatemalans who scramble to gather the money needed to migrate to the United States,” AP added.

But the distraught losers in Mayorkas’s lottery — and the dead lost in the desert — still serve Mayorkas and his pro-migration allies on Wall Street.

They help to distract the establishment media from the growing number of migrant workers and consumers who are being extracted from poor countries to force down Americans’ wages and drive up Americans’ rents.

The federal government has long allowed migrants to sneak past border guards while it also reassures the anxious public by promising tighter border security. This two-track policy strips wealth from working Americans and from heartland regions by quietly encouraging low-wage migrants to gamble their lives in a chaotic Hunger Games trek of loans, coyotes, cartels, rape, deserts, storms, border laws, barriers, rescuers, transport, judges, and cheap labor employers.

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

This opposition is multiracial, cross-sex, non-racist, class-based, bipartisan, rational, persistent, and recognizes the solidarity Americans owe to each other.

The voter opposition to elite-backed economic migration coexists with support for legal immigrants and some sympathy for illegal migrants. But only a minority of Americans — mostly leftists — embrace the many skewed polls and articles pushing the 1950’s corporate “Nation of Immigrants” claim.

Migration moves money from employees to employers, from families to investors, from young to old, from children to their parents, from homebuyers to investors, from technology to stoop labor, from red states to blue states, and from the central states to the coastal states such as New York.

DHS Secretary Mayorkas Deploys Mobile App for Foreign Nationals to Quickly Be Released into U.S.

Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has deployed a mobile app for foreign nationals looking to arrive at the United States-Mexico border, to more quickly have them released into the U.S. interior.

A report by the Los Angeles Times on Friday reveals that President Joe Biden’s administration is using a mobile app, called CBP One, that allows foreign nationals working with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Mexico and Central America to send their information to DHS so the agency can determine whether they are eligible for release into the U.S. interior while awaiting an immigration hearing.

Specifically, the mobile app is being used to help release into the U.S. migrants enrolled in the now-defunct “Remain in Mexico” program, along with those seeking exemptions from the Centers for Disease Control’s (CDC) Title 42 authority whereby federal immigration officials can return border crossers to protect public health.

The Times reports:

With CBP One, organizations such as the United Nations refugee agency send to CBP photographs of asylum seekers they’ve identified, and the app uses facial recognition to compare those pictures to those in the existing gallery.

The app then sends a response back indicating whether the person’s case is active and how long they’ve been waiting. If the app shows the case is open, an organization can arrange for the asylum seeker to get a COVID-19 screening, travel to a port of entry and obtain permission from CBP to enter.

A screenshot of the mobile app via DHS, published in the Times, shows how the process works for foreign nationals seeking release into the U.S. interior.

“A green check indicates the individual, whose picture the user submitted to CBP, is enrolled in Remain in Mexico and has a pending immigration case,” a Times caption reads. “A yellow bar indicates the individual is enrolled, but the individual’s case is now closed.”

(Screenshot via the Los Angeles Times)

Mayorkas has DHS working closely with NGOs tied to the United Nations (UN) to identify foreign nationals in Mexico and Central America who are eligible for release into the U.S. interior.

Breitbart News has previously reported on the UN’s role in bringing foreign nationals to the U.S.-Mexico border for release. Some of the NGOs involved include the International Rescue Committee and the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS), which also resettles refugees in the U.S. with taxpayer funds.

As noted, DHS secured emergency use of the mobile app last month from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) without having to go through standard public comment procedures that are typically required.

This month, Mayorkas officially ended the Remain in Mexico program, which had drastically cut asylum fraud and effectively helped end the process of Catch and Release whereby border crossers are released into the U.S. interior.

From February 19 to May 25, DHS released about 11,200 migrants enrolled in Remain in Mexico into the U.S. interior with more expected to be released this month. Most of these releases are being facilitated by the CBP One mobile app, the Times reports.

The Biden administration is busing and flying border crossers into U.S. cities via Greyhound bus transportation and domestic commercial flights.

From February 19 to April 22, as Breitbart News reported last month, the Biden administration had flown about 7,200 border crossers into the U.S. interior on domestic commercial flights. Border crossers are allowed to bypass photo identification requirements, boarding flights without a photo ID, and do not have to prove they are negative for the Chinese coronavirus.

In one recent case, 15 single adult male border crossers were apprehended crossing the southern border, sent to a DHS facility, and then bused or put on domestic commercial flights to various U.S. cities.

Poll: 53% of Californians Say State Is in Recession amid Rising Inflation

Fifty-three percent of Californians say the state is in an economic recession amid rising inflation, according to Tuesday’s PPIC polling.

Of the 1,705 California residents who participated in the poll, 53 percent of adults and 52 percent of likely voters said they believe California is in an economic recession.

Forty-one percent said California is not in a recession, and 43 percent of likely voters said it is not.

When “asked about their own financial situation compared to a year ago, most Californians have seen little change: 20 percent say they are better off than a year ago, 56 percent say they are the same, and 24 percent say they are worse off,” the poll reads.

However, three in ten lower-income residents, 29 percent (those with annual incomes less than $40,000), say they are worse off than a year ago.

Lower-income individuals may be feeling the added burden of being unable to work certain jobs, such as hospitality jobs, because of the Democrat-led shutdown during the Chinese coronavirus.

But they also may be hurting because of inflation that has resulted from the Biden administration, as money is worth less than before his presidency.

On May 20, Breitbart News reported the following about the impact of inflation on lower-income families:

Consumer prices have increased at an accelerated rate every month this year. In April, core inflation rose at its fastest month-over-month pace since 1981. The producer price index grew by the largest amount on record last month. Commodity prices are skyrocketing, with corn rising by more than 50% this year, lumber elevating to four times its traditional rate, and copper hitting a record high.

Breitbart News continued, “Inflation acts the same way as a tax by reducing the value of earnings. It devastates retirees and those on fixed incomes by making them poorer through no fault of their own. And it hurts small businesses, which must constantly raise prices, reducing sales and alienating customers.”

San Francisco Mayor Wants to Spend $1B to Fight Homeless Epidemic

Democrat San Francisco Mayor London Breed wants to spend $1 Billion to stem the homeless epidemic in the city.

According to the San Francisco city and county website “8,035 homeless individuals were counted in San Francisco’s 2019 point-in-time street and shelter count. This was an increase of more than 14 percent over the 2017 count.”

The San Francisco Chronicle reported some sources say the number could be as high as 17,000:

At the same time, homelessness funding has also significantly increased. The Department of Homelessness and Supportive Housing’s budget has increased by 80% since it was created in 2016, to $364 million in the most recent fiscal year. Meanwhile, Prop. C., a 2018 ballot measure that taxes big businesses for homelessness services, is expected to raise $250 million to $300 million per year.

The mayor’s plan is part of the city’s $13.1 billion budget for the next fiscal year, in addition to the $300 million the city already spends annually on homelessness. The Chronicle reported:

Roughly 75 percent of Breed’s proposed homelessness investment comes from $800 million collected by Prop. C, which she did not support in 2018. Meanwhile, another 20 percent comes from local sources like the city’s general fund and a 2020 bond measure, and the remaining 5% comes one-time funding from the federal American Rescue Plan, which helped erase a massive, pandemic-induced budget deficit earlier this year. Under Breed’s proposal, the money would go toward initiatives like capping all permanent supportive housing rent at 30 percent of a resident’s income, funding two new recreational vehicle parking sites and continuing a 40-bed emergency shelter for families. 

The mayor also wants to create 6,000 housing placements by June 2022, which includes new permanent supportive housing units, adding more housing vouchers or buying people bus tickets out of town to go back to family and friends. The funding would also cover another 4,000 new housing placements by 2023, and help prevent potential homelessness and eviction for over 7,000 households.

Breed also wants to spend $30 million — a 36 percent increase from the previous budget — for mental health and drug treatment services.

The Chronicle interviewed Tomiquia Moss, the CEO of All Home, an advocacy group for the homeless, who said she is glad money is being spent on more than houses, including to help people with mental health.

“We’ve underinvested in this for decades,” Moss said. “What we actually need now to get out of the problem is exorbitant, but it doesn’t have to be that way if we start making the right types of investments.”

Breed called her homelessness proposal a “historic investment.”

“For those exhibiting harmful behavior, whether to themselves or to others, or those refusing assistance, we will use every tool we have to get them into treatment and services, to get them indoors,” Breed said. “We won’t accept people just staying on the streets when we have a place for them to go.”

So why is Hunter Biden moving from his $25,000 a month Venice digs?

By Monica Showalter

In a pretty intriguing development, Joe Biden's son, Hunter, is moving from his tony Venice, California, digs.

According to the Daily Mail:

Hunter Biden appears to have moved out of the luxury $5.4million home he was renting in Venice Beach, California amid a crime and homelessness wave that has hit the beach-front Los Angeles city. 

The son of President Joe Biden was reportedly paying $25,000 a month to rent the three-story property on the Venice canals - just a block away from the beach. 

But on Monday, DailyMail.com spotted a moving truck outside the palatial home with furniture being loaded into it. Father-of-five Hunter, 51, moved into the stylish property with wife Melissa and their son Beau at the end of 2020. 

The Daily Mail speculates that it's because of the homeless, who've taken over the rich-hippie enclave, reaching even the gates of Hunter's part, describing scenes like this:

Secret Service officers sitting outside of Hunter's home have had to contend with the stench from a small encampment on the other side of a parking lot.

The tent city itself has its dramas just like any other human settlement. Last month a 30-year-old woman from Virginia gave birth in one of the oceanfront camps, the Venice Current reported. 

A homeless man was shot and injured on April 28. The gunman calmly walked away. The victim is not cooperating with police. Earlier the same week a tent was deliberately set on fire. One local woman talks of how she was chased by a man with a sword.

The place has been sporting scenes like this:

And the neighbors had welcomed him, not because they like his politics and celebrity status, but because of the Secret Service agents he brings in tow. Supposedly, the agents' presence helps keep the crime and squalor and panhandling associated with the homeless down.

As I wrote here when he moved in:

Hunter Biden's neighbors are happy to see him there, not because of his politics, which is a nothingburger over there, but because of his security.

They like him there because of the quasi police he has tagging around with him as he makes his rounds.

Here's the buried lede from the Daily Mail, taken from pure street reporting. Here are what three of the locals are saying, emphasis mine:

Ricky Otterstrom, senior vice president of Ryker Flint, a commercial real estate brokerage, has lived in Venice Beach for 15 years, tells DailyMail.com: 'I see Hunter Biden's secret service parked out front of his house every morning when I walk to the beach to surf. 

'They are there 24/7 which is a plus for us here on the Venice Canals. We need the extra security considering the amount of crime we have. Interestingly the homeless people who were living up along the street he now lives on are gone. 

'It could be a coincidence or the city had them removed because of Hunter. I think his presence will help clean up the area and I hope he gets involved with the community. It's a tight community with great people.' 

So if the Daily Mail is right, that didn't work. The Secret Service was nothing compared to the homeless onslaught on Venice. The homeless reportedly are rolling in from Los Angeles's Skid Row, which is 19.9 miles away. And in that "community," there are 40,000 of them, with Google itself defining Skid Row as the "homeless capital of the country."

As for Venice, a small tony enclave of 28,000, they've got 2,000 of them at last count, quite possibly more now:, according to KTLA:

The numbers were already increasing before the pandemic: 2020 data showed a 57% increase in the number of homeless people in Venice over the previous year — far greater than the increase in the city as a whole, which was 16.1%.

“It’s the worst I’ve seen in 20 years,” Venice resident John Betz told KTLA.

 The laws being applied are such that the city cannot remove them unless it can offer them housing accommodations. With Hunter himself paying a reported $25,000 a month for his housing, and the average per capita income of Venice residents at $94,000 a pop, rest assured, the housing offering would have to be luxury housing.

Now, the original Daily Mail report is speculative as to the homeless takeover is the actual reason why Hunter is moving. Hunter hasn't said anything. And the reasons he's leaving could be a bit more embarrassing.

Did the man of uncertain income but a taste for luxury skip out on his rent? It's true nobody's being evicted as a result of COVID in California, but who knows what the deal is at Hunter's lofty housing levels. The Mail reports his rent at $25,000 a month. Dirt, a celebrity real estate website, reports it at $17,500 a month. Hunter reportedly got a $2 million payout for a book almost nobody bought about his drug-fueled lifestyle, which kind of looked like a bribe. He also got a tony New York gallery showing of his blowpipe art, which also could be some kind of money-laundering. Did some of the money not come through? One wonders, now that Joe Biden is suddenly getting tough on China, one of Hunter's cash cows. Who knows? Someone will have to investigate.

There are other possibilities, too -- did Hunter violate some term of the lease, such as not using drugs and creating a ruckus? Based on New York Post columnist Maureen Callahan's observations, he seems to be still in denial on his "habit.' Could he have been causing problems for the neighbors? With Hunter, let's just say that he's not too far removed from the same world of social disintegration he's purportedly leaving.

According to Los Angeles magazine:

Biden—who recounts spending time “living in $59-a-night Super 8 motels off I-95 while scaring my family even more than myself” in his new addiction memoir, Beautiful Things—has upgraded his accommodations.

According to celebrity real estate news site Dirt, Biden’s 3,800-square-foot rental was purchased by Sweetgreen co-founder Jonathan Neman and Leora Kadisha, daughter of Omninet Capital billionaire Neil Kadisha, for $4.85 million in 2017 and they’ve been trying to rent or sell it for the last few years.

Listed by Halton Pardee + Partners as a “bespoke atelier,” Biden’s villa is a long way from the fly-specked plasterboard and sticky linoleum hideouts of his literary debut, with its marble floors beneath 25-foot acoustic ceilings, combined kitchen and dining space—where the utilitarian elements are hidden behind fine wooden cabinets—and canal views from an attached balcony.

Another clue is where he's taking his gypsy camp next. Is it to fancier digs, onward and upward, as his Venice move from the Hollywood Hills (rent there only $12,000 a month) late last year, or else is it a red-state haven from leftist crime and taxes, as normal Californians are doing? Is it a gated community for the superrich where tabloid reporters can't shout questions to him and bums can't spare change him or wave knives? It probably makes a difference. With old pop president, it's quite possible his "earnings" have gone up, so where he goes will probably tell us the most about why he's doing it.

In any case, Hunter's gone, the Secret Service detail is gone, and now the residents of Venice have one less measure of protection as the homeless continue to roll in. If the homeless were what drove Hunter out, it signals that the rich have their privileges and don't put up with leftist squalor the way ordinary rich leftists do. Bidens know how to take care of their own, so Venice is out.

L.A. County Sheriff: Homicides Up 95% over 2020; Will Issue More Conceal Carry Permits

Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva revealed Wednesday that homicides were up 95% this year over the same period in 2020, and said his department would issue more concealed carry permits to let citizens to defend themselves.

In an Instagram Live post, Villanueva revealed the grim numbers, as the region joined America’s ongoing crime wave:

The county ended 2020 with a 36% increase overall in violent crime, Villanueva said, making the increase in violent crimes thus far in 2021 all the more striking. “All huge numbers, all very, very troublesome.” He said that the rise in crime was an “existential threat,” along with homelessness and the passage of poorly conceived criminal justice reform.

He said the crime was worst in African American and Latino communities, and criticized the county’s Board of Supervisors for failing to address the issue.

Recognizing that the threat of crime to residents was increasing, Villanueva said, the department would accelerate the issuing of “carry a concealed weapon” (CCW) permits.

The Biden administration, when asked about the nationwide crime wave, has cited guns as the problem. But to Villanueva, at least, guns among law-abiding citizens maybe part of the solution, providing protection police cannot.

Villanueva has been a consistent opponent of efforts by Democrats to “defund the police,” and noted the LASD had been forced to cut 1310 positions in the past year, after being cut by $145 million, with $143 million more in cuts coming.

He spoke out against the Board’s support for “Measure J,” a referendum that passed in 2020 to provide “alternatives to incarceration” and fight “racial injustice” through 10% of the country’s budget.

Villanueva also disagreed with local leaders’ attempts to spend more money on housing for the homeless, saying it would attract more homeless from other states.

The sheriff has signed a recall petition aimed at George Soros-backed, left-wing L.A. County District Attorney George Gascón, who has pursued criminal justice reforms, over prosecutors’ objections, even as crime has soared in the county.

He also said Wednesday that L.A. Mayor Eric Garcetti needed to explain why he had failed to “regulate public space” to stop homelessness, saying it was a question he needed to answer before leaving for “India,” where he is rumored to be the next U.S. ambassador.

He also criticized City Council member Mike Bonin for attempting to interfere with policing homelessness. Bonin is proposing to use beach parking facilities to house the homeless, a proposal residents oppose.

Chamber of Commerce Joins Alliance with Joe Biden for Mass Immigration

3:32

The United States Chamber of Commerce and President Joe Biden have seemingly hitched their agendas together in an effort to hugely expand legal immigration to the U.S. and provide amnesty to millions of illegal aliens.

During a virtual conference on Thursday, Chamber CEO and President Suzanne Clarke said the the big business lobby is leading “the charge” to increase the number of foreign visa workers that are Americans are forced to compete against for blue-collar and white-collar jobs, along with a campaign to provide illegal aliens with amnesty.

“The world’s best and brightest who want to pour their talent and energy into our economy should have every opportunity to do so which is why the Chamber will continue to lead the charge in doubling employment-based immigration, including H-1B and H-2B visas,” Clarke said.

As Breitbart News reported, the Chamber has launched the initiative to allow businesses to import more foreign H-1B visa workers to take white-collar U.S. jobs, foreign H-2B visa workers to take blue-collar U.S. jobs, more seamlessly provide green cards to foreign students at American universities, and give tech conglomerates and the outsourcing industry a green card giveaway.

Also in the Chamber’s initiative is a plan that would allow local politicians in small and rural American communities to import foreign visa workers to grow the region’s population and take U.S. jobs.

The Chamber couples its huge expansion of legal immigration with an amnesty for, specifically, illegal aliens eligible and enrolled in the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and those with Temporary Protected Status (TPS).

The provisions are nearly identical to that of the Biden administration’s plan.

Under Biden’s plan, introduced in the Senate by Sen. Bob Menendez (D-NJ), DACA and TPS illegal aliens would be given amnesty — in addition to the majority of all illegal aliens living in the U.S.

Likewise, the Biden plan includes Big Tech’s green card giveaway, increases to the H-1B and H-2B visa programs, makes it easier for foreign students to secure green cards, and would start a pilot program allowing local politicians to import foreign visa workers in small American towns.

The shared goals between the Chamber and Biden are in direct contrast to the opinions of most Americans. The latest Rasmussen Reports survey, for example, shows that 75 percent of likely U.S. voters said they want less legal immigration — including nearly 4-in-10 who want current legal immigration levels cut in more than half.

Whereas the nation’s workforce supports a tightened labor market where employees have the upper hand over employers, the plans by the Chamber and Biden seek to diminish the cost of labor by inflating the labor market to grow profit margins.

Currently, about 1.2 million legal immigrants are awarded green cards annually to permanently resettle in the U.S. This is in addition to the roughly 1.4 million foreign nationals who secure work visas to take U.S. jobs every year in the American economy. On top of these admissions, rubber-stamped by the federal government, hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens enter the U.S. annually and many take entry-level jobs meant for teens and the working class.
