Border Surge: Obama Admin Spending Millions Flying Illegal Alien Children Across US

 
The number of illegals crossing the border is skyrocketing on its way to surpass the numbers we saw in 2014. To make matters worse our tax dollars are being spent to aid and abet illegal alien children caught crossing the border to finish their illegal journey into the US by sending them to family and relatives within the US! As much as any of us hate our money being spent like this, spending that money to send them BACK to where they came from would be better spent.

Now these illegals are here, where they will take advantage of all the free stuff at our expense courtesy of the progressives (R’s & D’s) running DC. Free education, food, healthcare etc illegals will receive is not factored into this report so it’s safe to assume the figure could very well be doubled!

The Obama administration has spent at least $18.5 million to fly “unaccompanied children” caught crossing into the country illegally to parents and relatives inside the United States, according to newly obtained figures.

The numbers, shared with FoxNews.com by the Senate subcommittee on immigration, were provided by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in response to questions from Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas.

The numbers shed light on the extent of a program that has drawn scrutiny not just from lawmakers but the federal courts, amid concerns the U.S. government is effectively aiding smugglers.

“This shows how fundamentally flawed our approach to immigration enforcement has been in the Obama administration,” a Senate aide who has seen the questions to and answers from ICE Director Sarah Saldana told FoxNews.com.

The administration, which continues to grapple with waves of Central American migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border and has gone to great lengths to ensure the safety of minors,has defended the practice as appropriate.

But it comes with a cost.

The ICE figures show that from June 8, 2014 to Sept. 30, 2015, ICE spent $4.8 million on charter flights for the children (ICE could not provide figures before that period). From March 2009 to Sept. 30, 2015, ICE spent $13.7 million on commercial flights for unaccompanied minors utilizing funds appropriated to ICE. …read more
