SOCIAL SERVICES UNDER ATTACK…

By: K.L. Hayden

Social services are under major strain right now because of the illegal immigration at the border, as illegal immigrants receive hundreds of millions in benefits.

According to a Congressional investigation conducted by the House Judiciary Committee, at least 2.6 million illegal immigrants have come into America through the U.S. southern border since Joe Biden took office.  A new report from The Center Square shows that as many as 12 million illegal immigrants have been allowed into America since 2021 alone.

Illegal immigrants receive approximately $42 billion in government benefits on an annual basis and the lifetime cost for one illegal immigrant is $68,000 in overall benefits given from the government, according to research done by the Foundation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR).

The illegal immigrant crisis is taking hundreds of billions of dollars from an already strained system. This means disaster for the Americans who rely on these programs.

Already, schools are facing massive budget shortfalls and are being forced to reduce staff by thousands, according to research done by the Citizens Research Council. With illegal immigrants being relocated to Michigan, social services will further be strained with fewer Americans getting the services they desperately need to survive.

Illegal immigration has surged because of decisions by the Biden administration, such as ending Remain in Mexico, a policy that kept illegals in Mexico while they were processed. Now, there are no controls as federal agents are handcuffed by the Biden administration.

These policies will only worsen in a second Biden administration when they do not have to worry about the voters. It may be worse than merely making a wrong decision. Biden’s decisions may be deliberately weakening the country and hurting vulnerable Americans as government power grows throughout this immigration crisis.
