Study: More than 7-in-10 California Immigrant
Welfare
More than 7-in-10 households headed by immigrants in the state of California are on taxpayer-funded welfare, a new study reveals.
The latest Census Bureau data analyzed by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS) finds that about 72 percent of households headed by noncitizens and immigrants use one or more forms of taxpayer-funded welfare programs in California — the number one immigrant-receiving state in the U.S.
Meanwhile, only about 35 percent of households headed by native-born Americans use welfare in California.
All four states with the largest foreign-born populations, including California, have extremely high use of welfare by immigrant households. In Texas, for example, nearly 70 percent of households headed by immigrants use taxpayer-funded welfare. Meanwhile, only about 35 percent of native-born households in Texas are on welfare.
In New York and Florida, a majority of households headed by immigrants and noncitizens are on welfare. Overall, about 63 percent of immigrant households use welfare while only 35 percent of native-born households use welfare.
President Trump’s administration is looking to soon implement a policy that protects American taxpayers’ dollars from funding the mass importation of welfare-dependent foreign nationals by enforcing a “public charge” rule whereby legal immigrants would be less likely to secure a permanent residency in the U.S. if they have used any forms of welfare in the past, including using Obamacare, food stamps, and public housing.
The immigration controls would be a boon for American taxpayers in the form of an annual $57.4 billion tax cut — the amount taxpayers spend every year on paying for the welfare, crime, and schooling costs of the country’s mass importation of 1.5 million new, mostly low-skilled legal immigrants.
As Breitbart News reported, the majority of the more than 1.5 million foreign nationals entering the country every year use about 57 percent more food stamps than the average native-born American household. Overall, immigrant households consume 33 percent more cash welfare than American citizen households and 44 percent more in Medicaid dollars. This straining of public services by a booming 44 million foreign-born population translates to the average immigrant household costing American taxpayers $6,234 in federal welfare.

Maryland Government Officials Worked With Open Borders Activists To Draft Sanctuary Law
Law blocked Montgomery County police from working with ICE to detain illegal immigrants charged with crimes
Alana Goodman • November 3, 2021 11:40 amMaryland government officials sought approval from an open borders activist group while they drafted a controversial 2019 sanctuary law that critics now say was responsible for a spike in violent crimes by illegal immigrants, according to internal emails obtained by the Immigration Reform Law Institute.
CASA de Maryland, a group that advocates for decreased border restrictions and once accepted $1.5 million from the Hugo Chávez regime, in 2019 was in close contact with officials in Montgomery County, Md., to draft the "Promoting Community Trust Executive Order," correspondence shows.
The order, which blocked county police from working with Immigration and Customs Enforcement to detain illegal immigrants who had been charged or convicted of other crimes, drew national scrutiny after at least nine undocumented immigrants in the county were accused of rape or sexual assault in the month after it went into effect. County officials eventually walked back parts of the order, allowing county jail authorities to work with ICE on custody transfers.
Immigration Reform Law Institute executive director Dale L. Wilcox, whose group obtained the emails through a public records request, said the coordination between government officials and far-left advocacy groups on immigration laws was "disturbing."
"Anti-borders politicians are working hand-in-glove with radical anti-borders groups to import endless numbers of illegal aliens with little concern for the safety and well-being of their legal residents," said Wilcox. "People in these communities need to let their elected officials know that such nefarious relationships will not be tolerated."
CASA de Maryland, which describes itself as the "largest grassroots immigrant advocacy organization in the Mid-Atlantic," opposes enforcement of federal immigration laws and has mounted numerous lawsuits to reduce restrictions on illegal immigration. The group has sued Maryland to permit drivers licenses for illegal immigrants and publishes pamphlets about how to evade detention by immigration authorities.
The emails show that Montgomery County officials regularly sought guidance from CASA de Maryland on crafting its immigration policies, including the Promoting Community Trust executive order, and worked closely with the group on crafting the order and strategizing the public relations rollout. Officials also sent a draft to the organization to review before the policy was officially signed.
"We anticipate finalizing the Order next week and would appreciate hearing your feedback beforehand," Montgomery County assistant chief administrative officer Caroline Sturgis wrote to CASA de Maryland employees in a July 5, 2019, email.
The group said it approved of the draft order but raised concerns about the county jail's policy for notifying ICE about inmates convicted or charged with prior crimes.
"I wonder whether it is possible to go ahead with the Executive Order then work more deeply on the [Department of Correction and Rehabilitation] policy," wrote CASA de Maryland's Kim Propeack to Sturgis on July 10. "We believe it really requires a lot of work."
Sturgis agreed and notified other government officials that the executive order was good to go—but added that those officials would need to rework the jail policy later on.
"We have received feedback from CASA; they are okay with the Executive Order but have concerns with the DOCR departmental policy," wrote Sturgis to other Montgomery County officials on July 10. "We agree to proceed with finalizing the Executive Order now and spend additional time dealing with the departmental policy separately."
Gustavo Torres, the director of CASA de Maryland, on July 11 sent an article to Sturgis about the upcoming order, writing, "Good victory here!"
Sturgis responded that the order would be finalized shortly and wrote, "Thank you to your team for contributing to Montgomery's policy."

Democrats’ Latest Amnesty Grows Two Subservient Workforces
Democrats have temporarily given up on trying to win citizenship for illegal migrants, and are now seeking to provide several million migrants with “parole” work permits for 10 years.
The latest amnesty plan, dubbed “Plan C,” was released Wednesday. So far, it is successfully distracting establishment reporters from other damaging sections of the bill that would allow an unlimited number of foreigners to buy the legal right to live and work in the United States.
The second-class amnesty is being offered to illegal migrants who arrived before 2011. It would give them the ability to fly in and out of the United States, and provide them with drivers’ licenses to help them to compete against Americans for jobs that require long commutes or travel time, such as truck and delivery drivers.
The Democrats are offering the non-citizenship amnesty to migrants who cannot earn enough to stay out of poverty, to migrants who have already lied to federal officials, and to migrants who sneaked back in after they were formally deported.
The draft rule includes a section barring a walk-back by a future GOP administration: “The Secretary of Homeland Security may not revoke parole granted to an alien.”
The proposed amnesty does not include a cap. This means that pro-amnesty officials can turn a blind eye whenever ineligible migrants ask for the parole work-permits.
The draft law also exempts the migrants from the capped annual inflow of legal immigrants, so denying Americans an offsetting gain if fewer legal immigrants were allowed in to compete for jobs and housing.
“What this proposal would do is create a dramatically larger population of people who are not on any kind of citizenship track, who are a kind of permanent subservient class,” said one critic, adding:
That’s just bad for [constitutional] government. And the other side will say “You’re right: That’s why we need to get green cards for them.” So that’s what their [political] game is here.
The Plan C proposal seems unlikely to survive review by the Senate’s debate referee, the Parliamentarian.
She has the power to strike the section from the Senate bill because the Democrats are trying to pass their amnesty fast-track “reconciliation” rules. Under those rules, Democrats need only 51 votes to pass their bill — not the usual 60 votes — but the bill can only include spending plans, not policy goals.
The Parliamentarian has already knocked down two amnesties as improper. So the parole plan is labeled “Plan C.”
But the media coverage of the parole plan is helping Democrats divert media attention from other massive migration, citizenship, and workforce changes hidden within Section 60003 of the bill.
Section 60003 allows millions of foreign temporary contract workers to buy the green cards that would let them permanently live and work in the United States. The foreigners who buy green cards via Section 60003 would be exempt from the nation’s annual cap on legal immigrants, and could become citizens after five years –providing they work as indentured employees for several years.
Section 60003’s green-cards-for-cash proposal would help CEOs hire many more subservient foreign graduates with dangled offers of eligibility to buy green cards. CEOs already have a “green card workforce” of at least one million foreign graduates working to eventually get green cards, at a rate of about 75,000 per year.
But the expanded class of indentured white-collar workers would expand government-enabled structural discrimination against American graduates, said Rob Law, the director of regulatory affairs and policy for the Center for Immigration Studies.
It will be “inherently impossible [for U.S. graduates] to compete [for jobs because] the foreign workers will always accept less pay because they also get the incredibly lucrative benefit of permanency in the United States,” he said.
Section 60003 would eliminate Americans’ right to their own national labor market, it would further reduce wages for all types of American employees, it would drive up housing costs for all Americans, and it would sharply dilute the value of Americans’ citizenship in politics.
Section 60003 also allows millions of unskilled foreigners who are now waiting overseas to become chain migrants to buy the fast-track green cards.
This chain-migration-for-cash rules would dramatically expand and accelerate the legal flood of poor chain migrants into Americans’ housing market, jobs, and schools — regardless of the impact on Americans and legal immigrants.
This flood of poor migrants would boost revenues for real estate companies, retailers, groceries, and government agencies — even while driving up housing prices for Americans and their children.
Roughly 4 million people are now waiting years to become chain migrants, amid rules that limit the inflow to roughly 240,000 chain migrants per year, under F-1, F-2, F-3, and F-4 visas.
Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) focused on the section’s impact for American technology grads in a November 3 op-ed at Fox News.
The current draft of the Democrat’s bill also includes a nearly unprecedented assault on the livelihoods of American tech workers. In service of their big money donors, Democrats intend to authorize green cards for hundreds of thousands of foreign tech workers. On day one, Democrats want to open the floodgates to 200,000 such workers.
The tech industry has been subsidized with cheap foreign labor for long enough. Silicon Valley should invest in upskilling the American workforce instead of using their money to lobby Congress for a new giveaway.
Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) is also calling attention to Section 60003’s green-cards-for-cash rule:
Section 60003 may be removed by the Senate’s Parliamentarian.
But the section shows the Democrats’ close cooperation with the Fortune 500 investors who are eager to convert salary cuts for Americans into 25-fold increases in stock-market wealth for investors.
Many polls show that labor migration is deeply unpopular because it damages ordinary Americans’ career opportunities, cuts their wages, and raises their rents. Migration also curbs Americans’ productivity, shrinks their political clout, widens regional wealth gaps, and radicalizes their democratic, compromise-promoting civic culture.
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.
Exclusive: House Republicans — Nancy Pelosi Using Economic Disparity Committee to Push Socialism
Rep. Bryan Steil (R-WI) and other House Republicans told Breitbart News that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is using the House Committee on Economic Disparity to advocate for socialist policies.
Steil spoke to Breitbart News as the House Select Committee on the Economic Disparity and Fairness in Growth held its first hearing on Wednesday. Steil, the ranking member of the committee, explained Pelosi created the committee and personally attended the hearing, a rarity for the California Democrat. He said Democrats hope to use the committee to convince the American people to back their socialist policies.
“This is Nancy Pelosi’s baby, and she clearly wants to utilize this as a platform to push pro-big government solutions,” he said.
In contrast to the Democrats’ rhetoric, Steil said all Americans experienced a vibrant economy under former President Donald Trump.
“Under President Trump, we had one of the best economies we’ve seen in generations. We had low unemployment rates we had high worker participation, we had growing incomes, and in particular, for low-income workers of all backgrounds,” Steil explained to Breitbart News.
Steil said Tuesday’s Republican victories in Virginia, New Jersey, and elsewhere proved Americans do not want the left’s radical policies.
“Ultimately, the American people will be the jury on this, but I think the education of last night gives us some real hope that the American people do not want to see us go further down. This path towards big government socialists,” the Wisconsin Republican remarked.
Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH) told Breitbart News in an interview Pelosi hopes to use this committee to “to build the momentum for what they call social infrastructure or socialism.”
Rep. Kat Cammack (R-FL) said in an interview with Breitbart News, “I think it really comes down to socialism versus capitalism. And are we going to be a country and have a federal government that promotes equal opportunity or equal outcome? Are we going to really empower workers through innovation and individualism, or we’re going to take a one size fits all approach of the heavy hand of government?”
“I think when you look at what happened in Virginia last night, you see what’s happening right now in New Jersey with the governor’s race. Americans are overwhelmingly rejecting this idea that government is the answer,” Cammack said.
