/1🚨EMERGENCY: A migrant crime wave has seized America.

Today, America First Legal, Ken Paxton, and 20 Attorneys General filed an urgent motion in federal court to stop Biden’s secret migrant flights depositing illegals from crime-plagued nations directly into US cities: Image
/2 On January 5, 2023, President Biden and DHS Secretary Antonio Mayorkas announced the creation of the unprecedented new program to allow 30,000 aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to fly into the country EVERY MONTH. Image
/3 The program makes use of “parole,” which is a strictly limited authority intended to allow aliens to enter the country without a visa in emergency situations.
/4 Under the Trump administration, it was normal for the parole authority to be used a few dozen times a month.

This new program makes a mockery of the parole authority, using it to create an entirely new parallel immigration system outside the control of Congress.
/5 The program essentially creates a “visa-free” immigration program for aliens from those countries. The program required minimal vetting that is laughably lax. Program participants do not need to have a visa or even have any kind of interview with a U.S. official before being approved for travel to the USA. For example, applicants for immigrant visas are required to undergo a comprehensive medical exam to prevent the transmission of dangerous diseases. Aliens in the parole program don’t have to undergo any kind of exam.
/6 As a federal judge in Texas recently pointed out, applicants to the program are approved at a rate of 97.5%.

Thus, applicants are virtually guaranteed admission to the United States. Image
/7 The CHNV Program allows for a maximum of 30,000 aliens to use the program each month, and sure enough, the Biden administration has been taking full advantage, allowing close to 30,000 aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela to fly into the country EVERY SINGLE MONTH:Image
/8 Even worse, there is no scheduled end date for the program, and DHS consistently renews the parole status of aliens already in the United States.

So, the program essentially allows these aliens to immigrate permanently.
/9 It gets worse… as the States pointed out in their briefing to the court, aliens in parole status are immediately given work permits and are entitled to basically every kind of welfare benefit after being present for five years. The costs of the program to taxpayers are therefore going to be enormous.Image
/10 Nationals of these countries have allegedly been involved in heinous crimes in the United States, including rape and murder…keep reading.
/11 Laken Riley, an innocent 22-year-old, was on a jog in Georgia when an illegal alien from Venezuela abducted and brutally murdered her. Image
/12 A 40-year-old Nicaraguan national, who was previously deported 5x, was charged with brutally raping a disabled woman. Image
/13 A 26-year-old Haitian man was recently charged with raping a 15-year-old girl in Massachusetts. Image
/14 Today, we filed a motion asking the court to reconsider its erroneous decision in this critical case. aflegal.org/america-first-…

/1🚨BREAKING — Rep. @ByronDonalds is now a plaintiff in AFL’s landmark lawsuit challenging the 2020 Census.

The Census SKEWED population counts and STOLE representation.

/1🚨 BREAKING: AFL has filed federal civil rights complaints against THREE Virginia localities for race-based discrimination.

AFL is requesting @CivilRights investigate:
-City of Alexandria
-City of Richmond
-Arlington County
/2 Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits race-based discrimination by entities receiving federal funding.

Title VII prohibits discrimination in employment.

These jurisdictions appear to be violating both.
/3 AFL’s complaint highlights how the City of Alexandra passed a resolution, which Alexandria’s Office of Race and Social Equity (RASE) describes as motivating the city’s commitment to “embedding racial and social equity into all city policies, programs, decisions, and environments.”Image

/1🚨BREAKING—AFL has filed a complaint with the Dept. of Education, urging an immediate investigation into Illinois’ new law forcing annual mental health screenings on children without parental consent—a clear violation of federal law and shocking expansion of state power. Image
/2 Illinois’ Public Act 104-0032 orders schools to screen kids in grades 3–12 for mental health issues at least once a year, starting in 2027.

No consent. No parental notice. Just the State interrogating children about their private emotions, family life, and home environment—and recording their answers in a government database.
/3 Under the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment, schools must obtain affirmative written parental consent before subjecting any child to any “survey, analysis, or evaluation” about their mental health or psychological condition.

Illinois’ new law ignores that requirement entirely.

/1🚨PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN — America First Legal just released a template letter that parents can use to opt out of radical classroom instruction and woke school policies. Image
/2 AFL’s letter enables parents to exercise their rights after the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Mahmoud v. Taylor.

The Court held that a school district violated parents’ rights by failing to provide notice and an opportunity to opt out before exposing children to radical LGBTQ storybooks.
/3 AFL’s letter also helps parents exercise their rights under the PPRA — a federal law that requires schools to give parents notice and an opportunity to inspect classroom materials.

/1🔎NEW — AFL has expanded its investigation into the City of Portland and the Portland Police Bureau.

We’re examining the bureau’s involvement with anti-ICE groups and Antifa — and whether it let radical demonstrators disrupt ICE operations, assault reporters, or shield Antifa. Image
/2 AFL has requested records to uncover how Portland officials may have enabled lawlessness — including by assisting anti-ICE groups in acquiring office space.
/3 This expands AFL’s ongoing investigation into the City of Portland, which previously uncovered its explicit inclusion of race as a central component of the city’s policing practices to achieve “equitable outcomes.”
