DHS IG: Agency Misspent Millions Welcoming Illegal Aliens Released by Biden
PUBLISHED: Thu, MAR 30th 2023 @ 6:16 pm EDT
According to a new Inspector General report, the Department of Homeland Security misspent a large portion of the money used on its program to pay nonprofits to welcome illegal aliens caught and released into the country.
The IG reported that DHS was wrong in failing to oversee how the money provided by the government to these nonprofits was spent. The report added that more than half of the funds paid by DHS in the humanitarian relief program of the Emergency Food and Shelter Program “may have been spent improperly.”
The money was intended to be paid to local nonprofits to assist in conducting COVID testing, providing bus or plane tickets for illegal aliens to enter the country further, and assisting them with housing and other needs once they arrive.
The Washington Times summarised the audit’s findings:
