While the communities of Springfield, Ohio, and Aurora, Colorado, have dominated the headlines this month, it is the Census Bureau that has produced the most alarming news.
The United States has always been a country of immigrants. But according to data released earlier this month by the Census Bureau, never before has the foreign-born population been higher than it is now, never before has the foreign-born population been growing as fast as it is now, and never before has the percentage of foreign-born population lacking permanent legal status been as high as it is today.
What the numbers show, what the citizens of Springfield and Aurora are experiencing, are the real costs of an historically unprecedented flood of migrants into the country, an influx aided and abetted at every turn by the Biden-Harris administration.
From day one, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris have purposefully dismantled immigration laws, sometimes simply by choosing not to enforce certain mandates, such as requiring all illegal border crossers to be detained or returned to another country, and by flagrantly abusing statutes to create dubious new pathways for otherwise illegal immigrants to enter and stay in the country.
Take Springfield, a town of 60,000, where estimates from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles and Springfield Public Schools suggest 12,000 to 20,000 Haitians have recently been deposited without the existing community’s approval or consent. News media love to note that most of the migrants are in the country “legally,” but that does not mean they entered legally.
Remember the Haitian migrants massed under the Del Rio bridge in Texas? Almost all of them were released into the country on parole after illegally crossing the southern border. Many have since been granted Temporary Protected Status by Biden, giving them a legal status, but that does not mean they arrived legally. TPS was designed to offer deportation protection for migrants who entered the country illegally.
Many of the Haitians in Springfield have also no doubt entered the country through Biden’s Processes for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, and Venezuelans parole program. In a clear abuse of a parole power meant for narrow emergencies, Biden has used this program to import more than 500,000 migrants from the named countries on a supposedly temporary basis.
