    White House to seek $3.8 billion for border control, more than previously signaled

    This is a a lot of money to hand out to LaRaza, Southwest Key and the other groups that are waiting with their hands out. Obama's track record indicates the money will go to pay off Socialist cronies instead of securing our border. JMO

    White House to seek $3.8 billion for border control, more than previously signaled

    By David Nakamura July 8 at 10:50 AM

    The White House on Tuesday will request $3.8 billion from Congress in emergency funding to deal with an influx of unaccompanied minors from Central America, a far higher amount than the Obama administration had previously signaled, according to a Capitol Hill source familiar with the plans.

    The money would go to several federal agencies, including the Departments of Justice, Homeland Security, State and Health and Human Services. Funds would be allocated to send more immigration judges to the southern border, build additional detention facilities and add border patrol agents, said the source, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the administration had not formally made the request.

    The move is aimed at more quickly deporting the tens of thousands of women and children who have entered the countriy illegally across the souther border, most of them in the Rio Grande Valley in Texas.

    White House officials declined to comment.

    Administration officials had previously said that they would be requesting more than $2 billion to help stem the recent surge of women and children from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. More than 52,000 unaccompanied minors and 39,000 women with children have been apprehended on the southern border this year, far more than in past years.

    President Obama, who will leave Washington on Tuesday evening, will visit Dallas on Wednesday and Austin on Thursday. Admnistration aides said he will not visit the border while in the state, but they said he will meet with local leaders to discuss the border crisis.

    Simply another shovel ready scheme to funnel money into liberal//Democrat groups which has occurred past 5+years, all this money will accomplish nothing. Wake up congress de-fund this administration completely.
    I'm old with many opinions few solutions.

    NOT JUST NO, BUT HELL NO! These funds will not go to secure this country and deport illegal aliens. This clustermuck will wind up costing more than Iraq ever thought about costing us. And we will STILL be stuck with all the illegals already here and all the ones to come. THIS ADMINISTRATION WILL NOT SECURE THE BORDERS! DO NOT BELIEVE ANY MORE OF THE LIES.

    I've put this in my republican delegations lap. I told them that myself and many others are only favoring an expenditure for removing these aliens to their original home, and that should be done within 10 days of arrival. I suggested they might have a disrupted campaign season if ONE DIME was authorized for costs of transfer, housing, food, clothing or education.

    I expect them as always, for many years, 12 or more, to do the opposite of what I've always felt best for Americans. Other than beating them down on amnesties, nothing else has ever been brought before congress.

    My republican Congressman seems to assign his body guard to "entertaining me" at his public appearances. Since I'm the only one that shows up about immigration, I have'nt even bothered to go for some time. It seems odd that a great many are on these anti-illegals sights, but not at public appearances. i keep their e-mail boxes busy, their phones necessary and some snail mail for their pleasure.

    Not one penny should go to assist these illegal aliens setting up house in our nation. They should be kept at the border till returned. The legislation needs to be done ASAP to allow to send them back pronto.

    The sending nations need to pay for the return of their citizens and the money we give to them needs to cease. No more remittances in the billions leaving to go elsewhere, keep wages here in the United States by hiring citizens.

    This government wastes billions of dollars, it is bloated and needs some trimming. Senator Tom Coburn has the list to start the cuts. Use the dollars from repetitive programs, ridiculous earmarks and studies, close some departments down.

    This administration has no intention of sending pregnant mothers with future voters back unless Americans seriously revolt and start voting these anti-American politicians out, unless they show up to demonstrate against these actions and unless they show up to confront the politicians as kevinssdad and others have said. Of course if an outbreak of disease ties back to this influx, things will change quickly for everyone.
