Thread: OBAMA PAYING ACTIVISTS TO HELP ILLEGAL MIGRANTS GET WELFARE, CITIZENSHIP

The Obama administration is paying activist groups to help illegal migrants get taxpayer-funded housing, education, medical services and citizenship.

The program is “radically irresponsible,” said a Senate staffer. “Anyone who doesn’t concede this is going to create an even stronger magnet for illegal immigration to the United States is either clueless or dishonest,” the staffer said.

A government official admitted the new taxpayer-funded program is intended to help the foreign migrants. “The face of this program will be the local community organizations that will be shoring up the load, working with these families and ensuring they have success,” said Andrew Lorenzen-Strait, deputy assistant director for custody programs at the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency in the Department of Homeland Security.

Since 2011, Obama has quietly allowed more than 240,000 low-skill migrants from Central America to cross the unwalled southern border, to gain jobs and to ask courts for residency and citizenship. Government data shows that the vast majority of low-skill migrants require extensive federal aid from taxpayers, and that their children do poorly in schools and work.

However, Democrats gain because the vast majority of migrants and legal immigrants vote Democratic once they gain citizenship.

“The [Family Case Management Program] will pilot a new alternative to detention initiative that uses case managers to ensure participants comply with immigration obligations while providing access to holistic community based services tailored to the individual families’ needs,” Customs and Immigration Services said in an announcement late last week.

Under first stage of the program, ICE expects the pilot program to enroll some 1,500 families divided among five major metropolitan areas: Baltimore/Washington, DC; Los Angeles; New York City/Newark; Miami; and Chicago.

The program is being billed as a way to ensure released illegal immigrant families appear for their immigration court dates.

Geo Care, LLC, part of of Geo Group Inc. — known for its detention services — has been granted a $11 million contract to operate it, however, according to ICE, local immigration assistance organizations will be “a cornerstone” of the program.

With a December start date, the program began ramping up on September 18.

According to a GOP staffer informed about the program, in addition to aiding illegal immigrant families with accessing pro-bono legal assistance, free medical clinics, public school enrollment, public transportation, and housing — the case workers will drive them to their immigration appointments and hearings so they can win residency and get on a path to the voting booth.

The stakeholder announcement explains that the program will offer “orientation and education to participants about their rights and responsibilities; Individualized family service plans; Assistance with transportation logistics; Assistance in securing access to housing, education, and medical providers (if needed); Tracking and monitoring of immigration obligations (to include attendance at immigration court hearings); and Safe repatriation and reintegration planning for participants who are returning to their home countries.”

Speaking to the San Antonio Express-News, Lorenzen-Strait said the goal is to ensure that migrants comply with immigration law. In many cases, compliance with the law will result in the migrants receiving citizenship from judges appointed by Obama.

Disgusting. Our country is so unbelievably .... STUPID.

A little saber rattling as usual from Congress. As usual, they have the power to defund it very soon. As usual they will offer more money, likely. Please, please tell me again, what did we achieve voting republican so heavily last fall?

New Obama program to help illegals mine benefits: housing, doctors, school supplies

Some 1,500 illegal immigrant families will be included in a new, $11 million pilot project that amounts to a taxpayer-funded concierge service to help them find benefits such as education, school supplies, housing, medical aid and even transportation.

The newly announced program from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is aimed at helping the families eventually return to their home countries, but critics believe it will encourage more immigrants to illegally enter the country since it heaps favorable benefits on top of those already offered in detention centers where even Zumba classes are provided.

ICE this month issued a "stakeholder notification" explaining the new program. It will place 300 families in five metro areas: Baltimore/Washington, D.C.; Los Angeles; New YorkCity/Newark; Miami; and Chicago. It said that "ICE expects to enroll a maximum of 1,500 families at any one time."

A newly-hired case manager will be assigned to them and that person will help the illegal immigrant families find the benefits. The ICE-sponsored case manager will also team with pro-immigrant groups and charities to aid the illegals, said the GEO Group job posting for the "Family Case Management Services Program."

In addition to preparing an "individualized family service plan," the government will explain their rights and even provide transportation to families for their court dates which presumably will lead to their deportation. They will also be provided "reintegration planning" before they return home.

According to ICE's notice, the immigrants will be provided:

-- Orientation and education to participants about their rights and responsibilities.
-- Individualized family service plans.
-- Assistance with transportation logistics.
-- Assistance in securing access to housing, education, and medical providers.
-- Tracking and monitoring of immigration obligations (to include attendance at immigration court hearings).
-- Safe repatriation and reintegration planning for participants who are returning to their home countries.

While developed as a program to help immigrants as they wait out deportation, critics fear it will only encourage more to come across the border. They are also concerned that the pilot program will eventually become a national program.

ICE officials have briefed some on Capitol Hill about the pilot.

One congressional aide familiar with the briefing said taxpayers may get angry at what the U.S. is providing to illegals.
"Look at all the polls and everything going on in the 2016 race for the White House. The American people are fed up with Washington, perhaps more than ever before. $11 million for a 'pilot program' that will provide taxi service to illegal aliens? Really? Who can blame Americans for hating us?"

ICE's notice said the program will begin in December after a 90-day ramp up period that has already started.
