One Sure Prediction: Mass-Immigration Special Interests will be Dependably Wrong
February 14, 2024

Unsubstantiated claims, and outright whoppers are standard operating procedure for mass immigration advocates, particularly when they fight common-sense legislation put forth by responsible public officials trying to protect their communities. Case in point: The left’s ominous warnings when Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signed Senate Bill (SB) 1718 in May of 2023. The bill not only expanded E-Verify – thus protecting American workers – but made multiple statutory changes for the purpose of deterring illegal immigration and mitigating the adverse effects of Biden’s Border Crisis on the Sunshine State.

One particular Los Angeles Times piece written by the far-left Center for American Progress just days after DeSantis inked the bill, typified the doom and gloom forecasting of open-border advocates: “Florida’s new anti-immigrant law could be disastrous for the economy.”

Making wild predictions is nothing new, however. Mass-immigration zealots have simply joined a long pantheon of prognosticators proven wrong:

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
