Analysis: Individuals seeking asylum released on humanitarian grounds

According to data released by a new report by the Congressional Budget Office and delineated by RedState.com, the Biden administration has used a parole loophole in immigration law to release over 6 million illegal aliens into the U.S. since Joe Biden took office in January 2021.

The number of illegal aliens entering the U.S. under Biden, equivalent to about the population of Tennessee, has increased each year of the Biden Presidency.

“CBO estimates that, on net, the number of people immigrating to the United States was 1.2 million in 2021 and 2.7 million in 2022,” the report stated. 

Biden and Homeland Security head Alejandro Mayorkas have repeatedly stated that the U.S. southern border is secure. Yet, the newly released statement by the CBO documents the perpetual increase in illegal boarding crossing and the government’s catch-and-release protocol. 

But the CBO report read: “Customs and Border Protection officials are encountering more people attempting to enter the United States and are releasing more of them into the country with humanitarian parole or with a notice to appear before an immigration judge, and more people are illegally entering the country without encountering Customs and Boarder Protection officials.”

The CBO report said that the U.S. population “will increase from 342 million people in 2024 to 383 million people in 2054, growing by 0.4 percent per year,” with the overwhelming contributor to the increase coming from immigration of any kind and not domestic births.

“Over the next decade, net immigration accounts for about 70 percent of the overall increase in the size of the population, and the greater number of births than deaths accounts for the remaining 30 percent. After 2034, net immigration increasingly drives population growth, accounting for all population growth beginning in 2040,” the CBO report stated.
