Speech #1130113138

This is the Presidents bill and it does nothing to fix any of the problems. It just asks for more money. The President of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services wrote last year: DHS and USCIS leadership have intentionally established an application process for DACA That is his first amnesty for DREAMers that the President issued. that bypasses traditional inperson investigatory interviews with trained USCIS adjudications officers. These practices were put in place to stop proper screening and enforcement. He is saying that these practices were put in place to stop proper screening and enforcement. -and guarantee that applications will be rubberstamped for approval. a practice that virtually guarantees widespread fraud and places public safety at risk. This is the head of the USCIS Officers Association. He is laying out event after event. action after action. that demonstrates we are dealing with an administration that does not want the law enforced. Can you believe these words? The president of USCIS goes on to say: U.S. taxpayers are currently tasked with absorbing the cost of over $200 million worth of fee waivers bestowed on applicants for naturalization during the last fiscal year. This is in addition to the strain put on our Social Security system that has been depleted by an onslaught of refugees receiving SSI benefits as soon as their feet touch U.S. soil. So the story that there are no Social Security benefits is not correct. The refugees who enter our asylum system through the refugee program are entitled to these benefits when they hit the soil. He goes on to say: Large swaths of the Immigration and Nationality Act are not effectively enforced for legal immigrants and visa holders. including laws regarding public charges as well as many other provisions as the USCIS lacks the resources to adequately screen and scrutinize legal immigrants and nonimmigrants seeking status adjustment. There is also insufficient screening and monitoring of student visas. These are breathtaking reports from our top officers. from the front lines of law enforcement. from people who screen and review applications every day for the United States of America. Now thinkjust imagine what will happen to our system if the President goes forward with his executive action.
