American First Legal files lawsuit against Biden's Parole Scheme of Illegal Aliens

America First Legal, Texas, and a Coalition of 20 State Attorneys General Take Urgent New Legal Action

to Stop President Biden from Flying Hundreds of Thousands of Illegal Aliens Into the United States

America First Legal (AFL), Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, and a coalition of twenty state Attorneys General took new legal action to stop President Biden from continuing to fly hundreds of thousands of illegal aliens from crime-plagued nations directly into cities across the United States.

The underlying lawsuit aims to stop the Biden Administration’s “parole” scheme that allows 30,000 aliens from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela (CHNV) to enter the country each month and remain–indefinitely. The program allows these aliens–after more or less flying to the destination of their choice–to obtain work permits and ultimately claim public benefits, such as food stamps and welfare.

The program floods our country with legions of illegal aliens who should not be here, only further worsening the worst immigration crisis in our nation’s history.

The court ruling also ignored the significant financial costs that Texas, and all states around the nation, have incurred at the hands of Biden’s parole program. These costs include issuing driver’s licenses, healthcare costs, education, and, of course, increased law enforcement and correctional facility services.

Beyond the financial burden that states face, once paroled, these illegal aliens are released into the United States without restrictions as to where they may go and without monitoring or other safeguards to track their whereabouts. Communities are put directly at risk by this lawless program as aliens take jobs from Americans, sign up for benefits, and drain public resources.
