The Cost of Illegal Immigration Continues to Rise

The Department of Homeland Security announced that an additional $380 million has been allocated to localities supporting illegal aliens. This is after receiving $259.13 million in grants from the DHS’ Shelter and Services Program (SSP) in April.

Nongovernmental organizations and localities providing support to illegal aliens were also given over $780 million through the SSP and FEMA’s Emergency Food and Shelter Program-Humanitarian Awards, according to expenditures in the 2023 fiscal year.

The Biden-Harris administration’s current open border policies have incurred massive costs to the SSP and several other federal agencies. The DHS, the Department of Justice, and the Department of Health and Human Services have also spent large amounts of money processing and managing the flow of illegal aliens crossing the southern border.
