Illegal Immigrant Population Increases More Than 1 Million in Last Year
Number fell 2019 to 2021, is now back to pre-pandemic level
Washington, D.C. (March 29, 2022) -An analysis by the Center for Immigration Studies of the government’s monthly “household survey” finds that the illegal immigrant population was 11.4 million in January of 2022 — a 1.1 million increase over January 2021 when President Biden took office and the on-going border surge began.  The Center’s preliminary population estimate for February 2022 is 11.5 million.  Analysis of the survey also shows that the total foreign-born population (legal and illegal together) hit a new record high of 46.7 million in February of this year.  

DHS’s illegal population data is dated – the latest analysis estimated the numbers for 2018 - partly because they, and other researchers, rely on survey data that takes a long time to be released.  By using the monthly household survey, the Center has been able to produce up-to-date estimates that reflect current conditions.

“The number of illegal immigrants grew dramatically this past year as the result of Biden administration policies which released most of the people encountered at the border and stopped  most interior enforcement,” said Dr. Steven Camarota, the Center’s director of research and the report’s lead author.  He added, “Absent a change in policy it seems certain the illegal immigrant population will continue to grow rapidly.”    
Among the findings:
  • We estimate that in January of 2022 there were 11.4 million illegal immigrants in the country — more than a 1 million increase over the 10.2 million in January of 2021.  Our preliminary estimate for February of this year is 11.5 million. 
  • The 10.2 million in January 2021 represented a significant decline from the 11.5 million illegal immigrants we estimate for January of 2019.
  • Overall we find that the illegal population in January and February of 2022 is similar to the number in January 2019.
  • The statistical margin of error in our illegal immigrant estimates in 2022 is ± 270,000, assuming a 90 percent confidence level.  However, as with any estimate of illegal immigrants there is also non-statistical error in our numbers. 
  • The monthly CPS also shows that the total foreign born population (legal and illegal together) grew to 46.7 million in February of 2022, a new record high in American history and an increase of 1.7 million since January of 2021.
  • Illegal immigrants account for more than one million or about two-thirds of the increase in the total foreign born since January of 2021. 
  • To place the 1.7 million growth in the total foreign-born population (legal and illegal) in the last 13 months in perspective, in the 48 months of the Trump presidency (January of 2017 to December 2020) the total foreign born increased 1.5 million.
  • For the illegal immigrant population or the foreign-born population in general to grow, new arrivals must exceed emigration and deaths. Births to the foreign born, legal or illegal, in the U.S. do not add to the illegal immigrant population or the overall foreign-born — all children born in the U.S. are by definition native-born.
 
This analysis represents our first attempt to estimate the illegal immigrant population, also referred to as the unauthorized or undocumented, using the monthly Current Population Survey (CPS) or “household survey”. The estimated size and growth of the illegal immigrant population are important because, unlike border apprehension figures, the number of illegal immigrants living in the country is what ultimately determines their impact.

The population of illegal immigrants in the United States has jumped by 1.1 million in President Joe Biden’s first year, says a report released Tuesday by the Center for Immigration Studies (CIS).

CIS said in an announcement distributed to the press that the data from the Department of Homeland Security is from 2018, so it used the federal government’s “household survey” to get more current information about the number of illegal aliens inside the country.

Data from the survey showed the illegal alien population was 11.4 million in January of 2022. The center’s preliminary population estimate for February 2022 is 11.5 million.

“The number of illegal immigrants grew dramatically this past year as the result of Biden administration policies which released most of the people encountered at the border and stopped most interior enforcement,” Steven Camarota, the Center’s director of research and the report’s lead author, said.

“Absent a change in policy it seems certain the illegal immigrant population will continue to grow rapidly,” Camarota said.

The Center describes its work, in part: 

The estimated size and growth of the illegal immigrant population are important because, unlike border apprehension figures, the number of illegal immigrants living in the country is what ultimately determines their impact. The [Current Population Survey] also shows that the total foreign-born population (legal and illegal together), reached 46.7 million in February 2022, a new record high, and an increase of 1.7 million since January 2021.

The Department of Homeland Security, whose methodology we base our analysis on, has illegal estimates only through January 2018. Part of the reason for this is that they, like other researchers, rely on the Census Bureau’s annual American Community Survey (ACS) to generate their estimates of illegal immigrants. The ACS is a larger survey than the CPS, producing more statistically robust estimates; however, it is only released once a year many months after the data is collected. Moreover, the Census Bureau reports the 2020 ACS was not accurate due to the pandemic. Using the monthly CPS allows us to produce timely estimates that reflect current conditions.

Other findings of the analysis include:

• Illegal immigrants account for more than one million or about two-thirds of the increase in the total foreign born since January of 2021.

• To place the 1.7 million growth in the total foreign-born population (legal and illegal) in the last 13 months in perspective, in the 48 months of the Trump presidency (January of 2017 to December 2020) the total foreign born increased 1.5 million.

• For the illegal immigrant population or the foreign-born population in general to grow, new arrivals must exceed emigration and deaths. Births to the foreign born, legal or illegal, in the U.S. do not add to the illegal immigrant population or the overall foreign-born — all children born in the U.S. are by definition native-born.

The statistical margin of error for the illegal immigrant estimates in 2022 is plus or minus 270,000 with a 90 percent confidence level.

“However, as with any estimate of illegal immigrants there is also non-statistical error in our numbers,” CIS stated.

Exclusive–Kobach: Biden’s Immigration Policy May Soon Get Much Worse

While the mainstream media focuses 24/7 on the war over the territorial sovereignty of Ukraine, the territorial sovereignty of the United States may get even worse.  The open-borders Left has been putting intense pressure on the Biden Administration to end the use of “Title 42” removals at the border—a policy that Biden’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is about to review in April.

Title 42 removals are based on the provision of federal law found at 42 U.S.C. § 265 that empowers the president “to prohibit, in whole or in part, the introduction of persons and property” into the United States in order to stop a contagious disease from spreading.  President Trump’s CDC issued an order announcing the use of this provision on March 20, 2020, to stop the spread of COVID-19; and the Biden Administration has kept it in place.  It allows the Border Patrol to immediately remove aliens encountered at the border.

Since March 2020, the federal government has executed 1.72 million  expulsions of illegal aliens under Title 42.  The pace of Title 42 removals increased during the Biden Administration.  In its first full 13 months in office, the Biden Administration expelled 1,256,748 illegal aliens—or about 97,000 per month.  It’s the only effective immigration enforcement tool that the Biden Administration has left in place since taking office.

It has allowed the Border Patrol to at least do something meaningful to respond to the invasion at our southern border.

But that’s only half of the immigration enforcement equation.  The other half is interior enforcement to remove illegal aliens who are already in the country, which the Biden Administration has all but destroyed.  In January, February, and September of 2021, the Biden Administration issued three policy memoranda that effectively prevent ICE officers from detaining or removing illegal aliens—even though federal law mandates that those aliens must be detained and removed.  The consequences of the new Biden non-enforcement policy were devastating.

At the beginning of 2022, many people were wondering why the Biden Administration had not yet issued its FY 2021 ICE Annual Report, which provides total deportation numbers for the fiscal year.  We knew that the lax interior enforcement had encouraged a surge of illegal immigration at the border with over 200,000 apprehensions per month at the border during the Summer of 2021.  The calendar year 2021 saw approximately 1.9 million apprehensions, more than triple the previous year.  But just how bad were the interior enforcement numbers?

Finally, three months late, ICE issued the report on March 11, 2022.  And it became clear why the Biden Administration was so reluctant to release it.  The numbers were embarrassingly low.  In FY 2021, ICE removed only 59,011 noncitizens.  That number was down from 185,884 in FY 2020.  In other words, in FY 2021 ICE removed only 32% of the number of aliens it removed in FY 2020.

Biden’s immigration policy is like playing defense in a football game without a defensive backfield—no safeties, no defensive backs, and no linebackers either.  In such a game, all the offense has to do is get past the defensive line (the Border Patrol); and they score a touchdown every play.  Once illegal aliens get a few miles into the United States and past the outmanned Border Patrol, their probability of ever being deported is nearly zero.

And now the Biden Administration is considering removing half of the defensive line too.  If Title 42 expulsions are ended, the Border Patrol will become little more than a processing agency for incoming illegal aliens.  The losers in this game will be the American people and American sovereignty.

Kris W. Kobach served as the elected Secretary of State of Kansas during 2011-19.  He currently serves as general counsel for the Alliance for Free Citizens and is lead counsel for Texas sheriffs and Federal Police Foundation ICE officers who are suing to stop the illegal Biden policies in federal court.  His website is www.kriskobach.com.

  

Biden Budget Imports Afghans to U.S. for a Decade Despite Vetting Failures

President Joe Biden is asking Congress for more American taxpayer money to bring hundreds more Afghans to the United States, even as his own Department of Defense has concluded that the administration failed to vet a number of Afghans resettled in the U.S. since last year.

As part of a nearly $6 trillion budget proposal, Biden is requesting Congress fund Afghan refugee resettlement to the U.S. for the next decade by increasing the number of Special Immigrant Visas (SIVs) allocated every year.

This month, Biden announced that he was giving Temporary Protected Status (TPS), a quasi-amnesty, to nearly 75,000 Afghans living in the U.S. who do not have green cards or visas to permanently remain in the country.

To date, more than 85,000 Afghans have been resettled in the U.S. by Biden.

The budget request comes as the Biden administration failed to properly vet Afghans against counter-terrorism databases, the Department of Defense’s Inspector General revealed last month.

As of November 2021, the report states, 50 Afghans already in the U.S. have been flagged for “significant security concerns.” Most of the unvetted Afghans flagged for possible terrorism ties have since disappeared in the U.S. In one instance, only three of 31 Afghans flagged months ago for security concerns could be located.

A majority of Americans, about 5-in-9, warned back in September 2021 that they did not believe the Biden administration was capable of properly vetting Afghans, including 83 percent of Republicans and those who lean Republican.

Despite the survey, the resettlement was first authorized by 49 House and Senate Republicans, who joined Democrats in September 2021 to fund the resettlement to the sum of $6.4 billion. Then, in December 2021, 20 House and Senate Republicans helped Democrats pass an additional $7 billion in funds to ramp up the endless Afghan migration.

As Breitbart News reported, the Afghan population in the U.S. has grown drastically — shooting up to 133,000 in 2019, which is more than three times the 44,000 Afghans who lived in the U.S. before the start of the Afghanistan War in 2001.

Likewise, the majority of Afghan households in the U.S., about 65 percent, use at least one major form of welfare such as food stamps, cash assistance, or Medicaid.

Every five years, refugee resettlement costs taxpayers nearly $9 billion. Over the course of a lifetime, taxpayers pay about $133,000 per refugee, and within five years of resettlement, roughly 16 percent will need taxpayer-funded housing assistance.

Over the last 20 years, nearly a million refugees have been resettled in the nation — more than double that of residents living in Miami, Florida, and it would be the equivalent of annually adding the population of Pensacola, Florida.

RSC: Biden Budget Mentions Climate 31 More Times than Border Security, Inflation

President Joe Biden’s budget proposal mentions “climate” 31 more times than it mentions inflation or border security, according to the Republican Study Committee (RSC).

The RSC said in a messaging document that the Biden budget proposal includes $43 billion in tax hikes on the oil and natural gas industry, including:

  • $13 billion by repealing percentage depletion for oil and natural gas wells.
  • $10.7 billion by eliminating full expensing for intangible drilling costs
  • $10.2 billion by increasing geological and geophysical amortization period for independent producers
  • $1.56 billion by repealing the enhanced oil recovery credit
  • $1.922 billion by repealing the credit for oil and gas produced from marginal wells
  • $1 billion by repealing the exemption from the corporate income tax for fossil fuel publicly traded partnerships.

The conservative group also highlighted how the bill created a $2o0 million “Solar Manufacturing Accelerator” at the Department of Energy and spends $900 million on climate research.

Rep. Jim Banks (R-IN), the chair of the RSC, said on Tuesday, “Biden’s budget gives the EPA $1.5 billion to push gas prices even higher.”

“Gas prices are at a record high and the #BidenBudget would hit America’s energy industry with at least $43 billion in tax hikes. Unbelievable. This administration is dedicated to making life more expensive for ordinary Americans,” Banks added:

Other Republicans, such as House Budget Committee Ranking Member Jason Smith (R-MO), said:

The President’s budget surrenders America’s energy independence and attacks American energy companies so that we are more reliant on foreign nations for our energy needs. The President continues his same catch-and-release policies that have resulted in the worst border crisis in 20 years. And, in a blatant attempt to cover up the $5 trillion in spending, $3 trillion in debt, $1.5 trillion in taxes, and a myriad of destructive policies within his Build Back Better agenda, the President’s budget declares that entire agenda off-limits for accounting purposes.

“President Biden is fond of saying ‘show me your budget and I’ll tell you what you value.’ What this budget shows is that President Biden values more spending, more debt, more taxes, and more pain for the American people,” Smith added.
