A group of GOP lawmakers from the House and the Senate has sent a letter to Joe Biden asking him to withdraw the nomination of Xavier Becerra for the head of Health and Human Services.
The object to his extreme positions on immigration.
He wants entering the United States to be decriminalized, thus making them eligible for some very expensive government benefits at taxpayers’ expense.
The letter was signed by the following Senators:
Sens. Tom Cotton (R-AR), John Kennedy (R-LA), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Mike Rounds (R-SD), James Lankford (R-OK), Steve Daines (R-MT), Roger Wicker (R-MS), Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Bill Haggerty (R-TN), James Risch (R-ID), and Mike Lee (R-UT) and House members Reps. Dan Bishop (R-NC), Mo Brooks (R-AL), Barry Moore (R-AL), Paul Gosar (R-AZ), Bob Good (R-VA), Jim Banks (R-IN), Ashley Hinson (R-IA), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Chip Roy (R-TX), and Lauren Boebert (R-CO) .
Giving so many federal benefits to illegal aliens would do a couple of things.
First of all, it will cost a fortune with just Medicaid costing up to $66 billion a year.
Secondly, it will motivate hundreds of thousands of immigrants trying to make their way into this country.
You will see caravans galore and with them the same problems their home countries had with some of them.
I see nothing good coming from anything Becerra wants.
