A report revealed that $340 million meant for COVID-19 relief in Washington state was given to illegal aliens instead of struggling Americans.
This fund was part of a federal aid program, and the state legislature approved the transfer to an “Immigrant Relief Fund” for undocumented individuals.
The Biden administration also approved this allocation.
“Even though this check is public assistance, because it is being funneled through a so-called COVID program, it would not constitute welfare in such a way that would prevent someone from receiving a permanent resident card,” EPIC wrote.
Similar programs were found in other states, and it was noted that such actions could encourage illegal immigration.
“The [Biden] administration has been actively encouraging illegal immigration by using COVID money from the SLFRF to provide cash assistance, housing, legal aid, and other benefits to undocumented immigrants,” EPIC president and CEO Paul Winfree said.
The report criticized the misuse of relief funds, stating that while Americans were struggling, money was being directed to non-citizens.
