Gov. Newsom Complains About Biden’s Immigration Policies, Says California Is About To ‘Break’
Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom of California said on Monday that the Biden administration’s illegal immigration policies are ‘not working’ and the US government must take ‘responsibility and ownership’
His comments come as a surprise to many considering that Newsom frequently boasts about the Golden State’s woke policies that he says were designed to accommodate and expand protections to illegal migrants entering California.
For those of us in California, we know how corrupt Newsom is and see his criticism of Biden as a simple political dig on the nation’s current Commander in Chief, who is considering running for re-election.
The state is already taking in a large number of illegal aliens. About 22% of California’s nearly 11 million immigrants are in the U.S. illegally, according to the Public Policy Institute of California.
In September, Newsom signed a bill allowing illegal aliens to obtain state ID, saying, “We’re a state of refuge — a majority-minority state, where 27% of us are immigrants.”
In January, Newsom’s 2022-23 California budget plan included universal health care benefits for all low-income residents, including illegal migrants.
Well, now the presumptive 2024 presidential candidate warned that Biden’s plan to reverse former President Donald Trump’s border policies could “break” his state.
Newsome comments come as the Trump-era immigration policy, the Title 42 public health order, is set to expire on December 20, 2022, and until then, DHS will continue to expel single adults and families encountered at the southwest border under that authority.
A court ordered the administration to stop using the authority — which has been used since March 2020 to quickly return migrants to Mexico — after finding it to be unlawful.
Newsom, speaking to ABC News on Monday, said, “The fact is, what we’ve got right now is not working and is about to break in a post-42 world unless we take some responsibility and ownership.”
“I’m saying that as a father,” the governor added. “I’m saying that as someone that feels responsible for being part of the solution and I’m trying to do my best here.”
Newsom claimed the U.S. government is sending “more and more” migrants to California because the state is “taking care of folks.”
“The more we do, the burden is placed disproportionate on us,” he said.
“We’re already at capacity at nine of our sites,” Newsom continued.
“We can’t continue to fund all of these sites because of the budgetary pressures now being placed on this state and the offsetting issues that I have to address.… The reality is, unless we’re doing what we’re doing, people will end up on the streets,” the progressive added.
