Why is our mainstream media not reporting on the consequences of illegal immigration?

You are everything you hate.

Welfare comes in many forms. As long as those at the top gets theirs I'm always going to support the rest in getting theirs.

If our leaders at the top are getting food stamps, AFDC, or section 8 housing then cut them off too

You be subjective in the welfare you support and so will I.

What welfare fo I support?

Because they do their best to not make the current administration look bad. It's nothing else.

Msm in America is liberal for the most part and they want things to stay that way. The few that aren't and do report on it aren't taken seriously by most because they are the minority and most people think if it isn't being reported by everyone then it's not real news.

I just don't understand why our mainstream media journalists refuse to do what their calling demands . . . report the news!

I read the following article back in March: US government imposing severe restrictions on news outlets covering border crisis It seems our mainstream media is more than happy to comply and avoid covering the border crisis, in addition to not reporting on the consequences American citizens and their children are suffering from this ongoing invasion. Why? Do our mainstream media journalists not care about the general welfare of the American people and their children?

I'm not sure what the above has to do with our mainstream media not reporting on the devastating consequences American Citizens and their children are now experiencing from the current and massive influx of poverty stricken, poorly educated, low skilled, diseased, Covid infected, disabled and criminal populations of other countries.

It’s not a “Deep State”. It’s a subversive socialist/communist “Shadow Government” which began to entrench itself during Ronald Reagan’s presidency. Its mission being, to advance GLOBALISM and socialist policies, and obstruct attempts to roll back such policies.

Canada has a great system. If they need workers they contact the Mexican Government. Tell then how many they need and for how long.

The Mexican Government sends them. They do the work. After the work is done they go home. Done.

What devastating consequences am I experiencing and why am I the last to know about it? These people could be congressmen in most southern states if they were white. Ignorant, Covid infected, poorly educated, etc. You checked off all the boxes.

What devastating consequences you ask?

let us take a look at the destructive social and economic consequences in just one county in California inflicted upon its citizens in 1995 when this massive invasion of our borders began to accelerate. CLICK HERE and scroll to page 93 for testimony given by JOAN ZINSER before the COMMITTEE ON THE JUDICIARY, U.S. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, DECEMBER 13, 1995

Good morning Chairman Smith and other honorable members of the Subcommittee on Immigration and Claims. I am Joan Zinser, Deputy Director of the San Diego County Department of Social Services. I direct the department's Income Maintenance Bureau, which has responsibility for AFDC, Food Stamps and Medicaid eligibility determinations. I am here today to tell you about the effects of illegal immigration on the County's assistance programs, and to present information regarding impacts on other county-funded services.

Impacts on San Diego County

In 1993, illegal aliens in San Diego County were estimated to be 7.9% of the population, or a total of almost 220,000 illegal aliens in a county with a population of slightly over 2 1/2 million. A 1993 California State Senate report estimated that the State, local governments - primarily the County - and schools incurred $304 million in costs to provide services to illegal aliens. These costs were offset by only $60 million in taxes generated by illegal aliens - leaving a net impact of $244 million.

Welfare Costs.

When a child is a US citizen, AFDC can be granted for the child but not the parent, if the parent is an undocumented immigrant. In 1992 there were 6,414 children born to undocumented immigrant parents in San Diego County hospitals. Each year, the illegal alien parents of nearly 2000 “citizen children” apply for and receive AFDC in San Diego County. The cumulative total of these “citizen child” cases continues to rise each year.

Public assistance is intended to support the citizen child, but is paid to the illegal alien parent and is, no doubt, used by the parent to support the entire family. Costs for providing AFDC to “citizen children” cases in San Diego totaled $37 million in 1993 for approximately 5430 AFDC cases.

Additional costs are incurred in Child Welfare Services. Combining costs for Out-of-Home and Family Maintenance services to families of illegal aliens results in an additional cost of $1.7 million.

Medicaid and Other Health-Related- Costs.

Medicaid services are an increasingly large portion of the costs involved in illegal immigration. In 1992, Medicaid paid for 6,414 births illegal alien mothers. Although studies have shown that illegal aliens use fewer Medicaid services than do the age-equivalent members of the general population, significant costs remain. Delivery costs are greater for babies with mothers lacking adequate prenatal care and many medical conditions are treated more cost-effectively in their early stages. Infectious diseases are also a major concern of the County. San Diego County has historically carried large costs because of illegal aliens with these problems. Costs associated with providing emergency and pregnancy related needs to illegal aliens are paid for under “restricted Medi-Cal benefits”. During the 1992 calendar year, an estimated $37 million was paid for “restricted Medi-Cal benefits”. Other costs, including uncompensated care in hospitals, community clinics, and other health services elevated the 1993 total costs to over $50 million.

Criminal justice.

A recent 90-day pilot project involved having INS Agents present in the county jails to interview those suspected of being an undocumented immigrant. Approximately 20% of the persons booked into the jails during that pilot were identified as being illegal aliens. With annual bookings of approximatel 105,000 persons a year, it is estimated that up to 21,000 were illegal aliens.



According to the San Diego County District Attorney, 8,521 felony crimes were committed by illegal aliens between 1987 and 1992. Illegal aliens commit an estimated 22% of felony crimes committed in the county. The number of misdemeanors committed during the same period in San Diego County by illegal aliens is estimated to be 17,000. In 1993, approximately 15. 1 % of the costs -accrued in dealing with crimes were spent on illegal aliens. Costs for illegal aliens to the legal system totaled $151 million in the County of San Diego for 1993.



Education.

Recently, a video of students crossing the border and getting on a school bus in San Diego County in order to receive free education was shown nationwide. Locally, we have worked to make sure that this situation does not recur, but education of the children of illegal aliens is also a significant cost. It is estimated that $60 million was spent in San Diego County in 1993 for education of illegal aliens.

SUMMARY

Total costs for providing services to the citizen children of illegal aliens cannot be clearly estimated. However, it is clear that a substantial number of persons come to San Diego County with the express purpose of obtaining citizenship and public benefits without regard for the law controlling immigration. The benefits accruing to citizens are an attraction to illegal aliens and represent a great cost to our County. San Diego County, and many others are facing a financial crisis of critical proportions. Expenditures for services are growing at a frightening rate, with no end in sight. It is the decisions made here in Washington that are often the basis for demands on local government. It is the conclusion of the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Diego that extending public benefits to those who have entered the country illegal is improper. To resolve many of the problems faced by San Diego County, we strongly urge the federal government to take the following actions: (1) Reserve citizenship for children of U.S. citizens and those whose presence in this country is legal under immigration laws; (2) Substantially increase resources pro- vided to the Immigration and Naturalization Service and to the Border Patrol to control illegal immigration on the border; (3) Deny eligibility for health, educational, and social services to illegal aliens; and (4) Fully compensate Local Agencies for any costs incurred in providing public services to illegal aliens and their children born in this country.

The County of San Diego appreciates the opportunity to provide input to your sub- committee and is encouraged by the interest the subcommittee has shown in the problems caused by the granting of citizenship to children of illegal aliens. Please contact me if you or your staff need further information. Mr. Canady. Thank you, Ms. Zinser.
