Lauderdale, Fla., and Eugene, Ore., to name a few.<\/p>\n<p><em>Breitbart News<\/em>\u00a0further explained:<\/p>\n<p><em>Gotaways are an estimate by Border Patrol officials of migrants that are either seen and not apprehended or are counted by other means including technology and tracking. These are migrants who illegally cross the border with no intention of surrendering to law enforcement to claim asylum, officials previously told Breitbart.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The El Paso Sector alone accounted for approximately 32,000 of these got-aways just in December. Agents in the El Paso Sector apprehended nearly 56,000 migrants in December. This brings the total of known border crossings to 88,000 for the month<\/em><\/p>\n<p>But this isn\u2019t the only insult to American taxpayers thanks to Joe Biden\u2019s refusal \u2014\u00a0<em>refusal<\/em> \u2014 to enforce current immigration and border security laws that are on the books like Donald Trump did. The most recently passed $1.7 trillion \u201comnibus\u201d spending bill Congress passed contains a shocking $785 million to transport, feed, and house illegal migrants. (Imagine how many miles of highway that would finance or electric lines it would replace or outdated water and sewage systems it would upgrade.)<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIncluded in that bill is the transfer of $800 million from CBP to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), $785 million of which will go \u2018to support sheltering and related activities provided by non-Federal entities, including facility improvements and construction, in support of relieving overcrowding in short-term holding facilities,&#8217;\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/cis.org\/Arthur\/Massive-Spending-Bill-Includes-785-Million-Feed-House-and-Transport-Migrants\">noted Center for Immigration Studies senior fellow Andrew Arthur<\/a> last week. \u201cOh, and an additional $1.6 million for CBP \u2018suicide prevention and wellness activities.\u2019 Congress needs to investigate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt should come as no surprise that Biden\u2019s border fiasco has taken a toll on CBP employees at the Southwest border. Morale is at all-time lows and the administration doesn\u2019t seem to care much,\u201d Arthur continued. \u201cAs of late\u00a0November, 14 CBP employees committed suicide in 2022, the last three of whom were Border Patrol agents at the Southwest border who took their lives less than two weeks apart. I\u2019m not saying that the Biden-created disaster at the border either led to or precipitated those deaths. Having been a former congressional oversight staffer, however, I would like to know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Federation for American Immigration Reform, meanwhile, noted that the massive amount of money earmarked for migrants in the spending bill actually encourages more illegal immigration (which, of course, is the point).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe final spending package approved by a Congress on their way out the door leaves little doubt that chaos at the border\u00a0is\u00a0the policy of the Democratic Party today and that their goal is to create even more of it,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fairus.org\/press-releases\/federal-legislation\/border-security\/omnibus-spending-bill-does-not-secure-border\">said Dan Stein, president of FAIR<\/a>. \u201cOnly a party that affirmatively wants open borders \u2013 regardless of the fiscal, security, and humanitarian costs \u2013 would let the one remaining policy that allows for the expedited removal of even some illegal migrants lapse, and deliberately tie the hands of our border enforcement\u00a0agency.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s be clear, the president can restore operational control of the border simply by enforcing laws that are already on the books \u2013 many of which he voted for as a senator. Instead, he and his party continue to deflect blame by claiming they inherited a broken system. The truth is they deliberately broke it themselves and are standing in the way of efforts to fix\u00a0it,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRather than do anything to regain control of our borders, the omnibus is focused entirely on processing illegal aliens as quickly as possible and transporting them to already overwhelmed communities all across the United States. This massive spending bill effectively turns CBP into a federally administered travel agency for illegal aliens and saddles state and local governments with the costs of education, health care, housing and other basic needs for the endless flow of illegal aliens the Biden administration is waiving into the country,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources include:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fairus.org\/press-releases\/federal-legislation\/border-security\/omnibus-spending-bill-does-not-secure-border\">FAIRUS.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cis.org\/Arthur\/Massive-Spending-Bill-Includes-785-Million-Feed-House-and-Transport-Migrants\">CIS.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2023\/01\/03\/exclusive-844k-known-border-crossers-in-first-quarter-of-fiscal-year\/\">Breitbart.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.naturalnews.com\/2023-01-04-more-illegal-aliens-than-most-big-cities-crossed-into-u-s-first-quarter-fy23.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joe Biden\u2019s refusal \u2014 refusal \u2014 to enforce current immigration and border security laws has prompted Congress to pass a bill authorising $785 million to transport, feed, and house illegal migrants.
