A Biden Plan for the Northern Triangle
What would a program to discourage illegal migration look like?
By David North on April 7, 2021

David North is a fellow at CIS. He is grateful to Kathleen Sharkey, a CIS intern, for her research assistance.

In response to the border crisis, President Biden has pledged to address the "root causes" of illegal immigration from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras, the so-called Northern Triangle nations of Central America. It’s important to note that this would be a long-term project which, even if successful, would not address the immediate border crisis.

The president has promised $4 billion in additional economic assistance to the region, but a detailed plan has not been made public for what the funds will target, how funds will be allocated, what regions will be emphasized, and how long it will take before migration will be impacted.

In this report, we explore how the proposed economic assistance funds could be best used to target the root causes of illegal immigration, emphasizing the need for a data-driven plan that would include a Covid-19 vaccination program, an export-expansion program, crime control and family-planning efforts, and a cash payment program for people who agree, on pain of imprisonment, not to go to the U.S. We also put forth a funding idea: A wire transfer fee paid only by those who subsequently fail to file complete tax returns.

I thought Trump's plan of not letting them in was working fine.

Biden issuing invitations probably won't reduce the force of the Invasion.

Four gigabucks could build the entire wall.

Exclusive-U.S. Considering Cash Payments to Central America to Stem Migration
By Reuters, Wire Service Content April 9, 2021, at 3:07 p.m.
 

The potential program would be targeted at people in the Northern Triangle region of Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, Roberta Jacobson, the White House's southern border coordinator, told Reuters in an interview, without saying who exactly would receive cash.

Roughly 168,000 people were picked up by U.S. Border Patrol agents at the U.S.-Mexico border in March, the highest monthly tally since March 2001 and part of steadily increasing arrivals in recent months.

"We're looking at all of the productive options to address both the economic reasons people may be migrating, as well as the protection and security reasons," Jacobson said.

How many decades do the estimate it will take for some of that money gets to South American citizens?  Anyway the governments of S.A. will not use it for immigration.  They already have some sugar daddy(s) footing the bill so why should they not keep it.

Hey president dumbass, ya wanna stem illegal immigration? Easy peasy lemon squeezy, do what that more competent President before you did, spend that money instead on walls and beefed up patrols, slam the border shut and man up using some of that dementia rage to tell our southern neighbors to control their borders and deal with their problems instead of exporting them to America to create a cash pipeline.
