According to Roll Call, the U.S. House of Representatives is set to add immigration reform provisions into the U.S. Global Competitiveness bill that was passed on Wednesday by the U.S. Senate. Among those provisions would be a new visa category for entrepreneurs and to exempt foreign citizens with doctoral degrees in STEM fields from annual green card limits. Sen. Todd Young (R-IN) expressed that he would open to the provisions if there is “broad support,” and Sen. John Coryn also expressed that he is “certainly open” but was more cautious about additions in case the provisions can not be reconciled between the Senate and the House. It is absolutely mind boggling that at this point, given what we know about the mood of the American people, two Republicans from red states would wave the flag of surrender to the open borders lobby.
According to Breitbart News, American taxpayers paid “more than $316 million in healthcare costs for illegal aliens detained by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency last year.” The money allocated by congress to ICE provided medical, mental health, dental, and other public health services to 88,000 illegal alien detainees last year. Overall, ICE oversaw the health care of just under 170,000 illegal alien detainees in private facilities last year. The actual healthcare cost for the 20-30 million illegal aliens is in the billions of dollars.
According to Forbes, the State Department will impose visa restrictions on Chinese Communist government officials who are suspected of being complicit in the persecution of minority groups, dissidents, and activists in China. Particularly, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken focused on those complicit with the persecution of Uyghur Muslims to be sanctioned with restrictions. No names were named as to who would be affected by the restrictions. Do not expect it to be that many people, nor will this have any affect on China to stop their human rights abuses.
