CALIFORNIA HAS THE LARGEST NUMBER OF ILLEGALS, THE LARGEST NUMBER OF ILLEGALS ON WELFARE AND THE LARGEST NUMBER OF HOMELESS LEGALS. CAN YOU DO THE MATH ON THAT?
Report: Californians Leaving for Texas So Rapidly, U-Haul Ran Out of Trucks
A recent report from U-Haul revealed migration to southern states has continued and Texas was the top destination for those moving.
“California and Illinois ranked as the states with the greatest one-way net loss of U-Haul trucks, and most of that traffic appears to have gone to Texas and Florida,” Fox Business reported on Friday.
“So many Californians are leaving the once Golden State that the moving giant says it ran out of wheels for them to rent,” the outlet stated.
Texas was at the top of the list prior to the pandemic in 2016 and 2018, but fell to Florida in 2019 and Tennessee the next year. Now, it has retaken top place.
California’s net loss was not as bad as in 2020, but U-Haul said that was partly because the company “simply ran out of inventory to meet customer demand for outbound equipment.”
U-Haul noted in a recent press release:
Texas’s growth is statewide, although some of its biggest gains occurred in the suburbs around the DFW Metroplex. Florida’s gains are equally widespread, with considerable growth south of Orlando and along both coastlines. Overall moving traffic across Texas increased in 2021, as it did in most states. Arrivals of one-way U-Haul trucks jumped 19% while departures rose 18% over 2020. Arrivals made up 50.2% of all one-way U-Haul traffic last year in Texas.
“The Texas economy is growing fast,” Kristina Ramos, U-Haul Company of South Austin president, commented. “With a strong job market and low cost of living, it’s a no brainer. Texas doesn’t have an income tax, so families get more for their money.”
Blue states that have imposed mask mandates, vaccine requirements, and lockdowns in the past year lost population to red states that nixed such policies, Breitbart News reported December 23.
“Newly released data from the United States Census Bureau reveals that while blue states like California and New York have increasingly lost population from July 2020 to July 2021, red states such as Texas and Florida have seen population increases,” the article read.
In a social media post on Thursday, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) said his state was growing faster than any other in the nation:
“More people are choosing Texas because it is the best state to live, work, & raise a family,” he wrote.
NANCY PELOSI: WE'RE NOT WORRIED ABOUT CALIFORNIA'S MILLION HOMELESS. WE'VE GOT TO TAKE CARE OF OUR ILLEGALS FIRST. THEN THEY CAN VOTE FOR THEIR OWN AMNESTY AND BRING UP THE REST OF MEXICO!
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.
Later, during the Trump administration, Ryan crafted multiple amnesty plans to bestow legal status on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) illegal alien youths—but those, despite the House holding votes on them, did not end up passing Congress. Ryan wasted months in 2018 pushing amnesty as a “big priority” instead of focusing on the America First agenda that Trump had campaigned on in 2016.
As Breitbart News reported, forcing taxpayers to provide healthcare to all illegal aliens would cost citizens anywhere between $23 billion to $66 billion every single year — potentially a $660 billion bill for taxpayers every decade, without adjusting for inflation and the increasing number of illegal aliens.
Exclusive — Kevin McCarthy Pledges as Speaker He Will Not Consider Amnesty or Gun Control Legislation
House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview taped in December that the House would not consider any legislation that grants amnesty to illegal aliens if he becomes the speaker next year.
“We know first and foremost one of our greatest strengths is the rule of law, so you have to have an immigration system based upon the rule of law. You have to secure the border. The immigration system is broken and we’re going to fix it. Yes,” McCarthy replied when asked if he could pledge no amnesty would be considered under his leadership.
“Yes,” he reaffirmed when pressed again.
McCarthy’s comments came during the latest On The Hill long-form video special, taped in December at an Eastern Market establishment on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC.
McCarthy is the next likely speaker of the House should Republicans regain the House majority in November’s midterm elections as widely expected. Making a pledge like this is a huge deal, and a massive blow to open borders advocates who have long hoped for a legislative amnesty to make it through Congress. It is also a sign of the changing direction of the Republican Party even after former President Donald Trump has left office.
Not too long ago, back when former Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) was the speaker, amnesty advocates had an open borders champion in the highest position in the House GOP—and before that, former Speaker John Boehner’s leadership team, which included former GOP Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA), openly worked to try to develop amnesty legislation back during former President Barack Obama’s administration.
Now, though, the GOP has shifted big time to a point where such considerations are off the table, and the next likely Speaker has ruled them out entirely.
Of the 14 Senate Republicans who voted for the Gang of Eight amnesty plan in 2013, most are gone: former Sens. Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), Lamar Alexander (R-TN), Jeff Chiesa (R-NJ), Bob Corker (R-TN), Jeff Flake (R-AZ), John McCain (R-AZ), Orrin Hatch (R-UT), Dean Heller (R-NV), and Mark Kirk (R-IL). Only five, Sens. Susan Collins (R-ME), Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Marco Rubio (R-FL), John Hoeven (R-ND), and Lindsey Graham (R-SC), remain in the U.S. Senate.
That bill never came up in the House for a vote, as Boehner never put it on the floor, but that was not always a certainty during that point in time. As Breitbart News reported throughout 2013 and 2014, Boehner kept the door open to considering the amnesty legislation for over a year after its U.S. Senate passage.
Later, during the Trump administration, Ryan crafted multiple amnesty plans to bestow legal status on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) illegal alien youths—but those, despite the House holding votes on them, did not end up passing Congress. Ryan wasted months in 2018 pushing amnesty as a “big priority” instead of focusing on the America First agenda that Trump had campaigned on in 2016.
Now, with this pledge from McCarthy, it seems no such legislation will ever be considered if he is the speaker—as such efforts appear to be off the table.
Similarly, McCarthy also pledged that a House GOP majority under his leadership would not consider gun control proposals—another blow to the left.
“One thing I’ve learned is the Second Amendment is one of the most important amendments and you look at all my voting record. Listen, you watch this Congress itself—we believe in the Constitution,” McCarthy said.
