President Joe Biden called undocumented immigrants enrolled and eligible for former President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) “model citizens” during a Cinco de Mayo event at the White House. declared.
After releasing Obamacare’s roster of DACA illegal aliens, Biden said his ultimate goal is to grant amnesty not only to those enrolled in DACA, but also to those eligible for the Obama-era program.
Under such a plan, millions of illegal aliens would secure green cards and eventually obtain American citizenship. Biden justified the policy by calling illegal immigrants under DACA “model citizens,” like Americans.
“The first bill I introduced was about DACA, and we created DACA to ensure a direct path to citizenship. [DACA] 12 years ago” Biden Said:
This gives 800,000 DREAMers the opportunity to work, go to school, and demonstrate their immense talent in America. But more than a third of his DREAMers couldn’t get health insurance. That’s wrong. And this rule changes everything. DREAMers now have access to health insurance, of course. [Emphasis added]
As I said earlier, on my first day in office, I introduced a comprehensive immigration reform bill to Congress. This expands legal avenues for entry for families and employers. It includes a path to citizenship in the only country DREAMers have ever called home. [Emphasis added]
I love it when people say, “Why DREAMers?” Can you imagine a 2-year-old child saying this? Isn’t that against the law? ” Give me a break. They were exemplary citizens. [Emphasis added]

Biden called on Congress to “act” on passing a pardon, saying, “The right thing to do is to keep moving forward until we get it done.”
As Breitbart News reported in 2017, the DACA amnesty will allow newly naturalized citizens to bring an unlimited number of foreign relatives to the United States, with an estimated 10 million to 19 million foreign nationals. This will lead to a surge in chain migration.
A previous Breitbart News analysis found that DACA pardons could cost American taxpayers about $115 billion by opening up the Obamacare roster to newly legalized illegal aliens. It turned out that there is a sex. Meanwhile, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that these pardons will cost taxpayers $26 billion.
The same CBO report suggests that about 1 in 5 DACA illegal aliens will end up on food stamps after amnesty, while at least 1 in 7 will end up on Medicaid.
In 2013, a CBO analysis said the “Gang of Eight” amnesty plan would “slightly” depress wages for American workers. A 2020 CBO analysis states that “immigrants, regardless of their origin, place downward pressure on wages for relatively low-skilled workers already in the country.”
