Biden’s Budget Proposal Includes $13 Billion Allocated For Migrants

(ConservativeInsider.org) – The Biden administration is asking Congress for over $13 billion to help bail out sanctuary cities, which are currently overrun with illegal migrants. The funding would serve to aid migrants in seeking homes and workplaces in the U.S.

The plan is part of the 2025 budget request to Congress, which was released to the public on Monday, March 11. Unless the GOP wins a majority in both the Senate and the House in November this year, the budget bill will likely be approved.

Since Biden took office, an equal number of migrants have entered the country as babies have been born to Americans in the same time frame. The massive influx of migrants, both legal and illegal, has inflated housing prices, suppressed wages, and allowed more companies to stop investing in high-tech jobs in order to pay for cheaper taxpayer-funded jobs. Biden claims that a “more orderly flow” of migrants from the southern border is beneficial to the country as a whole, because they are “the reason our economy is growing.” Yet over five million American citizens who did not enter the country illegally have been pushed out of the workforce.

The budget bill put forth by the Biden administration would also include funding for 1,300 new Border Patrol agents, 1,600 new asylum officers, 1,000 more Customs and Border Protection officers, as well as 375 new “immigration judge teams” meant to reduce the backlog of immigration cases.

In 2019, Biden said the United States could take in two million additional migrants “in a heartbeat.” At least three million migrants who were caught at the southern border crossing since Biden took office in January 2021 are still in the U.S., with no signs of the flow of migrants entering the country stopping. This has led to a 30% approval rating from Americans for how Biden has handled the border crisis. During the last election cycle, Biden embraced far-left border control policies, but the strong disapproval has led him to shift back to more centrist positions.
