As a congressman, Tim Walz sponsored legislation that would have granted legal status to 3 million undocumented migrants
10/04/2024 // Laura Harris // 910 Views
 


A Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report has found that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, during his time in Congress, co-sponsored a bill that would have granted legal status to millions of undocumented migrants and would have placed significant financial strain on America's social programs if it was passed.

The legislation, also known as the 2017 DREAM Act, proposed a pathway to citizenship for over three million illegal immigrants. The bill would have also expanded "chain migration," by allowing nearly legalized individuals to sponsor relatives for permanent residency. (Related: Tim Walz linked to radical personalities with close ties to socialists and Marxists.)


The CBO report highlighted how both direct beneficiaries of the DREAM Act and their family members would have become eligible to receive support from federal social programs like Social Security and Medicaid after contributing payroll taxes after several years. Their inclusion in these programs would have significantly ballooned federal spending on them.

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

Now Walz, like Harris, tries to say he's pro-wall, after years of opposing border security.

Going on Fox News this morning was a really, really bad idea by Tim Walz’s handlers. Here is Walz getting destroyed after trying to say that he’s now in favor of the border wall.
