Commentary
Biden/Harris made empty promises to stop migrants in Panama — but the flood continues ([link removed])
By Todd Bensman
New York Post, August 15, 2024
Excerpt: Nearly two months after the US pledged a “removal flights program” to support Panama, the aid is nowhere to be found and the immigrants, after sheltering in place at home or in Colombia to see if Panama might actually deport people, are starting to flow once again through the Darien Gap.
Biden-Harris’ Illegal, Fraud-Filled Effort to Import Hundreds of Thousands of Venezuelans, Cubans and Haitians ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
New York Post, August 6, 2024
Excerpt: The Biden-Harris administration is pausing a scheme that allows up to 30,000 Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans per month — none of whom have any legal right to be admitted — to fly into the United States with access to work authorization, known as “CHNV Parole.” Turns out the program was rife with fraud. Who knew?
The Unprecedented Migrant Crisis Worsens Our Housing Shortage ([link removed])
By Eric Gordy
Washington Examiner, August 6, 2024
Excerpt: The housing shortage looms large as our nation faces a critical presidential election. Unfortunately, some in Washington, D.C., continue to turn a blind eye to a key factor exacerbating this crisis: Mass illegal immigration.
Beware Vivek’s Plan for Work Visas ([link removed])
By Phillip Linderman
American Spectator, August 3, 2024
Excerpt: Vivek’s immigration justification takes us right back to the Wall Street Journal and Cato policy papers. It is the same antiquated view that is comfortable with Washington lobbyists hustling in the halls of Congress and in federal agencies to expand the number of H-1B visas and create other narrow, special-interest visa categories.

How Fruitful Have Kamala Harris’s ‘Root Causes’ Efforts Been? ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
Excerpt: The apparent decline in illegal entries from the Northern Triangle countries of Central America is largely an artifact of Title 42, which inflated the earlier numbers because it encouraged recidivism of illegal entrants. Title 8 apprehensions, as well as entry of inadmissible aliens at the ports of entry, have increased dramatically.
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz: Proponent of Licenses for Illegal Aliens ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
Excerpt: Walz championed a recently enacted law which enables illegal aliens to obtain valid Minnesota driver’s licenses — notwithstanding concerns that such insecure documents assist aliens posing national-security risks to evade scrutiny and apprehension, concerns that federal law has attempted to address, but that Walz’s signature will exacerbate.
Highlights of the CIS-Co-Sponsored Conference to Combat Human Trafficking ([link removed])
By Jessica M. Vaughan
Excerpt: On July 23-24, a large group of federal, state, and local law enforcement officers and officials, researchers, service providers, and representatives of foreign governments gathered in Houston for the third annual Conference to Combat Human Trafficking, which the Center for Immigration Studies co-sponsors with the Borders, Trade, and Immigration (BTI) Institute in Houston and the Harris County Department of Education.
House Judiciary: Biden-Harris Admin Has Released ‘At Least’ 99 Terror Watchlist Migrants ([link removed])
By Andrew R. Arthur
Excerpt: The Biden-Harris administration has long dismissed Congress’s assessments about the dangers criminal aliens pose to the community. Perhaps that dismissive attitude carries over to the alien terrorism concerns of intelligence professionals, too. If so, it would explain a lot.
