Senate Democrats Vote Against Bill Stopping Biden From Flying Illegals To Small Towns

These would be the same Democrats who freak out over illegal aliens in border states being shipped off to sanctuary cities. This, though, is more than just flying them around to small town America after they’ve jumped across the border as the Biden regime has been doing

All Senate Dems vote against barring taxpayer funds to fly illegal migrants to US towns

Every Democratic lawmaker in the Senate voted against an amendment that would bar taxpayer funds from being used to fly illegal aliens to U.S. towns and cities, according to the Republican senator behind the amendment.

“Tonight every single Senate Democrat voted against my amendment that would stop Biden Admin from using taxpayer dollars to charter flights for hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens from their countries directly to American towns to be resettled,” Republican Tennessee Sen. Bill Hagerty tweeted early Saturday morning.

“Indefensible,” he added.

Hagerty announced earlier last week that he was set to file an amendment to the appropriations bill that would “prohibit federal funds from being used to secretly fly illegal aliens from other nations directly into states across the country,” according to his office’s press release.

“Let me cut through the procedural language here. I’m bringing forward a vote on a very simple question: Do you support American taxpayer dollars being used to fly illegal aliens into the United States from places like Venezuela and Haiti, into America to be settled in towns and cities near you? If so, then vote against me. Vote ‘no’ to preserve the practice of using taxpayer dollars to charter planes that move and import thousands of illegal aliens into your states,” Hagerty said Friday on the floor of the Senate.

And when Biden flies those from other nations he sticks them in small town America, in places that can ill afford them and do not want them. He’s mostly not sending them to sanctuary cities, counties, and states. It would be nice if more Republican run states would take them and ship them right off….well, it would be nice if they weren’t being imported from other countries to start with.

(UK Daily Mail) The US Border Patrol chief said the crisis at the southern border is a ‘national security threat‘ that ‘keeps him awake at night’ in a new interview during which he spelled out the danger posed by the millions of illegal migrants who’ve entered the country in recent years.

Border Patrol chief Jason Owens said during a sit-down with CBS News that he is mostly concerned with the tens of thousands of illegal migrants who haven’t been apprehended and processed at the border on their way into the US.

‘What’s keeping me up at night is the 140,000 got aways,’ Owens said – the number of migrants who have snuck into the country undetected since October.

‘Why are they hiding? What do they have to hide? What are they bringing in? What is their intent? Where are they coming from?’ Owens explained are the primary concerns of the USBP about the got-aways, whose backgrounds and locations are virtually unknown to the government.

He’s saying they know nothing about these people. Are they terrorists? Are they gang members? Murderers? Rapists? Part of a theft group? We don’t know. Heck, what do we know about all the ones Biden is flying in from other countries?
