Chicago’s 9th ward Alderman Tony Beale says illegal migrants, especially Venezuelans, are receiving vouchers for $9000 a month for housing, food, dispensable cash, etc.
Migrants are organizing gangs, driving cars and carrying guns. This insanity won’t stop until this horrendous migrant issue personally touches each and every one of our lives.
233,000 migrants and asylum seekers attempted to cross the U.S.-Mexico border last month without proper visas.
181,000 people crossed the border illegally last month — the highest monthly number since before pandemic policies were replaced by new carrot-and-stick measures in May.
A record 93,000 family members crossed illegally.
The higher numbers have been driven in part by a surge in Venezuelan migrants and asylum seekers fleeing a severely unstable economy and government at home.
More than 31,000 Venezuelans crossed into the U.S. in August, with 70% choosing to do so illegally despite Biden’s legal parole program specifically created for them.
Many are risking the dangerous jungles of the Darién Gap separating Colombia and Panama.
A startling 82,000 migrants took the often-deadly journey through the Darién last month. Nearly 63,000 of them were Venezuelans, according to Panamanian data.
As the migrant crisis continues across the country, the violent actions of those like Rivas-Figueroa and Jose Antonio Ibarra bring a plethora of questions to the surface regarding the state of immigration and the Biden administration’s willingness to address the ongoing crisis.
President Biden recently said, “Congress has had a long, proud history — a bipartisan history — on immigration reform and abiding by our international treaty obligations, which we signed related to immigration.
These reforms made America a nation of laws, a nation of immigrants and the strongest economy in the world.
But something changed. Over time, our laws and our resources haven’t kept up with our immigration system, and it’s broken. And our politics has failed to fix it.”
Note: According to the World Bank, the 2016 homicide rate was 56 per 100,000, making Venezuela third in the world, after El Salvador and Honduras.
OVV data has 23,047 homicides committed in Venezuela in 2018, a rate of 81.4 per 100,000 people, with the decline being attributed to emigration.
