And in so doing, you SHAPE THE FUTURE OF OUR NATION, which is why I say: WE NEED YOU SO DESPERATELY RIGHT NOW.” Harris’ rejection of “Don’t Say LGBTQ” laws: “And while you TEACH STUDENTS about our nation’s past, these extremists attack the freedom to learn and acknowledge our nation’s true and full history, INCLUDING BOOK BANS,” said Harris. “So, we want to ban assault weapons, and they want to ban books.… Can you imagine? All the while, these extremists also attack the FREEDOM TO LOVE WHO YOU LOVE OPENLY AND WITH PRIDE. They pass so-called “Don’t Say Gay” laws.… Now, I have to tell “And while you… teach students about our nation’s past, these extremists attack the freedom to learn and acknowledge our nation’s true and full history, including book bans,” said Harris. “So, we want to ban assault weapons, and they want to ban books.… Can you imagine?

And what is their job? The most noble of work, TEACHING OTHER PEOPLE’S CHILDREN. And God knows we don’t pay you enough as it is. In this moment, we are in a fight for our most fundamental freedoms.

It is no surprise that the bullying and DISCRIMINATION THAT TRANSGENDER AMERICANS face is worsening our Nation’s mental health crisis, LEADING HALF OF TRANSGENDER YOUTH TO CONSIDER SUICIDE IN THE PAST YEAR. At the same time, an epidemic of violence against transgender women and girls, especially women and girls of color, continues to take too many lives. Let me be clear: All of THESE ATTACKS ARE UN-AMERICAN and must end. No one should have to be brave just to be themselves.” Ending the proclamation, Biden said: “TODAY, WE SEND A MESSAGE TO ALL TRANSGENDER AMERICANS: YOU ARE LOVED. YOU ARE HEARD. YOU ARE UNDERSTOOD. YOU BELONG. YOU ARE AMERICA, AND MY ENTIRE ADMINISTRATION AND I HAVE YOUR BACK.

AMERICAN’S COST TO SUPPORT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS THIS Each ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT COSTS the U.S. more per year than it spends on the average FOOD STAMP RECIPIENT or MEDICAID BENEFICIARY, according to an analysis by the House Budget Committee that was shared first with The Washington Times. THE TOTAL NET COST TO THE U.S. IS MORE THAN $150 BILLION A YEAR, THE TIMES THE $150 BILLION FIGURE IS A “CONSERVATIVE ESTIMATE.” He said the burden falls heavily on states and local governments, who according to the data spend more than $73 BILLION A YEAR on education, nearly $22 BILLION on law enforcement and almost $19 BILLION ON MEDICAL CARE. NEW STUDY ON ILLEGAL ALIEN TAX CONTRIBUTIONS AUGUST 26, 2024 This chaos is also imposing record costs on Americans. Last year, FAIR published a report entitled the Fiscal Burden of Illegal Immigration on United States Taxpayers. The study strives to illustrate the myriad of ways AMERICANS PAY FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. Our estimate, which is a conservative one, is that AMERICANS NOW PAY $150.7 BILLION DOLLARS ANNUALLY DUE TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION. This figure represents a net cost. In terms of GROSS EXPENDITURES DUE TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, we estimate that AMERICANS PAY $182 BILLION. APPROXIMATELY $31 BILLION IS RECEIVED FROM ILLEGAL ALIENS IN TAXES, ONLY 17 PERCENT OF THE COSTS THEY CREATE. FISCAL COSTS THAT WILL BE INCURRED WHEN ALL OF THE PAROLEES WHO HAVE ARRIVED SINCE THE START OF FY 2022 BECOME FULLY ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL BENEFITS. LOOKING AT ONLY THREE PROGRAMS, MEDICAID, SNAP, AND THE EARNED INCOME TAX CREDIT (EITC), AND using all of the same assumptions as our current report, we estimate that the costs of illegal immigration will increase by $20 billion. THAT MEANS THE GROSS COSTS DUE TO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION WILL SOON SURPASS $200 BILLION. AND THIS DOES NOT EVEN INCLUDE OTHER FEDERAL BENEFITS PROGRAMS OR STATE AND LOCAL COSTS. FEMA ONLY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS GET What is the purpose of FY 2024 SSP? Congress authorized and DIRECTED SSP FUNDING IN 2024 for costs associated with PROVIDING SHELTER AND OTHER eligible services to NONCITIZEN MIGRANTS who have been encountered and released by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). DHS has committed to bolstering the capacity of non-federal entities to receive noncitizen migrants. ALLOWABILITY SERVICES ARE ONLY ALLOWED FOR NONCITIZEN MIGRANTS following their release from DHS. ALLOWABLE COSTS AND SERVICES must meet the following criteria: Primary Services include shelter, food, transportation, acute medical care, personal hygiene, and labor for primary services. At least one primary service is required for all eligible applicants. Secondary Services INCLUDE RENOVATIONS OR MODIFICATIONS TO EXISTING FACILITIES, CLOTHING, OUTREACH INFORMATION, TRANSLATION SERVICES, AND LABOR FOR SECONDARY SERVICES. THE SHELTER AND SERVICES PROGRAM (SSP) is administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in partnership with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). SSP PROVIDES FINANCIAL SUPPORT TO NON-FEDERAL ENTITIES THAT PROVIDE HUMANITARIAN SERVICES TO NONCITIZEN MIGRANTS In FY 2024, SSP-C WILL PROVIDE $340.9 MILLION to NON-FEDERAL ENTITIES for services associated with NONCITIZEN MIGRANT ARRIVALS in their communities. This table provides an overview of immigrant eligibility for major federal public assistance programs, including: SUPPLEMENTAL SECURITY INCOME (SSI) SUPPLEMENTAL NUTRITION ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (SNAP) TEMPORARY ASSISTANCE FOR NEEDY FAMILIES (TANF) EMERGENCY MEDICAID (INCLUDES LABOR AND DELIVERY) FULL-SCOPE MEDICAID CHILDREN’S HEALTH INSURANCE PROGRAM (CHIP) MEDICARE “PREMIUM-FREE” PART A (HOSPITALIZATION) (ELIGIBILITY BASED ON WORK HISTORY.)

PRESIDENT TRUMP’S ECONOMY THIS IS A REAL PRESIDENT HE IS GOING TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN The U.S. ECONOMY CONTINUED TO GROW IN 2019 despite the trade war with China. UNEMPLOYMENT REMAINS AT HISTORIC LOWS, WAGES ARE UP AND THE STOCK MARKET SOARED. TRADE AGREEMENTS reached at year's end BRIGHTENED FORECASTS FOR 2020. THE U.S. ECONOMY IS HEADING INTO 2020 ON A POSITIVE NOTE. THE STOCK MARKET IS NEAR A RECORD HIGH. UNEMPLOYMENT IS NEAR A RECORD LOW. And while trade tensions haven't been resolved completely, they have settled down for the moment. NPR's Scott Horsley recaps some of the ups and downs of the economy in 2019 and takes a look at what lies ahead next year. SCOTT HORSLEY, BY LINE: When CNN asked AMERICANS this month how THEY'RE FEELING ABOUT THE ECONOMY, 3 OUT OF 4 describe conditions AS GOOD OR VERY GOOD. That's the most positive rating pollsters have found since 2001. And no wonder lots of PEOPLE ARE WORKING. PAYCHECKS ARE GROWING FASTER THAN INFLATION. And while there were some storm clouds on the economic horizon this year, most of us didn't get soaked. I spoke to economist Sarah House at the busy office of Wells Fargo Securities. HORSLEY: U.S. EMPLOYERS ADDED NEARLY 2 MILLION JOBS in the first 11 months of this year. And while that's down from the 2.4 million in the same period last year, it's still pretty strong for the 11th year of an economic expansion. Average wages rose a little over 3% in the last year, slightly more for those at the bottom of the income ladder. And the stock market spent much of December setting new records Summary SINCE PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP TOOK OFFICE: THE ECONOMY ADDED 6 MILLION JOBS, AND THE UNEMPLOYMENT RATE DROPPED TO THE LOWEST LEVEL IN NEARLY 50 YEARS. JOBS AND UNEMPLOYMENT Job growth slowed a bit under Trump, but UNEMPLOYMENT DROPPED TO THE LOWEST LEVEL IN NEARLY HALF A CENTURY. EMPLOYMENT-TOTAL NON-FARM EMPLOYMENT GREW BY 6,027,000 since the president took office, according to the most recent figures available from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The UNEMPLOYMENT RATE, which was well below the historical norm when TRUMP TOOK OFFICE, HAS CONTINUED TO FALL TO THE LOWEST RATE IN NEARLY HALF A CENTURY. The Bureau of Labor Statistics now figures the rate was 4.7% when he was sworn in. The most recent rate, for September, fell to 3.5%. THAT’S THE LOWEST SINCE DECEMBER 1969, NEARLY 50 YEARS AGO, WHEN IT WAS ALSO 3.5%. The jobless rate has been at or below 4% for the most recent 19 months — all UNDER TRUMP. IT HASN’T BEEN THAT LOW FOR THAT LONG SINCE A 50-MONTH STREAK ENDING IN JANUARY 1970. MANUFACTURING JOBS — MANUFACTURING JOBS INCREASED UNDER TRUMP, but the growth has stalled recently. The number ROSE BY 482,000 BETWEEN TRUMP’S INAUGURATION and September. That followed a net DECREASE OF 193,000 under Obama. Income and Poverty HOUSEHOLD INCOME — HOUSEHOLD INCOME ROSE BRISKLY UNDER TRUMP. The Census Bureau’s measure of median household income reached $63,179, an increase of $1,400 from 2016 after adjusting for inflation. In percentage terms, the increase during Trump’s first two years is 2.3%. (The median figure represents the midpoint-half of all households earned more, half less. POVERTY-AS INCOMES ROSE, THE RATE OF POVERTY DECLINED. The percentage of Americans living with income below the OFFICIAL POVERTY LINE WENT DOWN TO 11.8% OF THE POPULATION IN 2018, THE LOWEST LEVEL SINCE 2001. The POVERTY RATE HAS NOW DECLINED FOR FOUR CONSECUTIVE YEARS, dropping by 1.3 percentage points in 2015, by 0.8 points in 2016 and by 0.4 points and 0.5 points in Trump’s first two years. Regulations The growth of federal regulation has stopped under Trump. However, many of the rules Trump has eliminated are quite significant. WITHIN A MONTH OF TAKING OFFICE, FOR EXAMPLE, TRUMP SIGNED A LAW NULLIFYING AN OBAMA-ERA RULE RESTRICTING COAL MINING COMPANIES FROM DUMPING WASTE INTO STREAMS AND WATERWAYS. Last year his administration proposed WITHDRAWING OBAMA’S EDICT REQUIRING AUTOMAKERS TO INCREASE THE FUEL EFFICIENCY OF NEW CARS AND LIGHT TRUCKS TO 46.8 MILES PER GALLON BY THE YEAR 2025. Instead, the requirement would be capped at the 2020 level of 37 mpg. And in September the EPA’s Affordable Clean Energy rule took effect, REPEALING THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION’S CLEAN POWER PLAN RULE. The Obama-era rule WAS DESIGNED TO REDUCE CARBON DIOXIDE EMISSIONS BY SHIFTING AWAY FROM COAL AS AN ENERGY source and would have required states to meet specific emissions reductions. Crime CRIME DECLINED DURING TRUMP’S FIRST TWO YEARS. THE NUMBER OF PROPERTY CRIMES PER 100,000 PEOPLE WENT DOWN 10.3% DURING TRUMP’S FIRST TWO YEARS, INCLUDING A 19.8% DROP IN THE BURGLARY RATE, AN 8.6% DROP IN THE RATE OF LARCENIES (SUCH AS SHOPLIFTING), AND A 3.5% DECLINE IN THE RATE OF MOTOR VEHICLE THEFTS. OVERALL, THE RATE OF VIOLENT CRIMES PER 100,000 PEOPLE WENT DOWN 4.6% DURING TRUMP’S FIRST TWO YEARS. THAT INCLUDED A 16.2% DROP IN THE ROBBERY RATE, AND A 0.6% DECLINE IN THE RATE OF AGGRAVATED ASSAULT. Wages and Inflation The upward trend in REAL WAGES CONTINUED UNDER TRUMP, AND INFLATION REMAINED IN CHECK. CPI — The Consumer Price Index rose 5.2% DURING TRUMP’S first 32 months, continuing a long period of HISTORICALLY LOW INFLATION. WAGES — PAYCHECKS CONTINUED TO GROW FASTER THAN PRICES. The average weekly earnings of all private-sector workers, in “real” (inflation-adjusted) terms, rose 2.8% during Trump’s first 32 months (ending in September) after going up 3.9% during the previous four years. Those figures are for all private-sector workers, including managers and supervisors. For rank-and-file production and nonsupervisory workers (who make up 82% of all private-sector workers), real weekly earnings have gone up 3.2% so far under Trump, after rising 4.9% during Obama’s last four years in office. Trump failed to “repeal and replace” the Affordable Care Act as he promised to do, but did slash advertising and outreach aimed at enrolling people in Obamacare plans. In December 2017 he signed a tax bill that ended the ACA’s tax penalty for people who fail to obtain coverage, effective this year. And in March the Trump administration joined an effort by GOP state attorneys general seeking a court decision to overturn the entire act. That case, Texas v. U.S., was argued July 9 before the U.S. Court of Appeals in New Orleans. The court has not yet issued its ruling in that case. Food Stamps THE NUMBER OF FOOD STAMP RECIPIENTS DROPPED TO THE LOWEST LEVELS IN A DECADE. Earlier this year the number dropped below 37 million for the first time since October 2009, when millions were signing up for benefits in the aftermath of the Great Recession of 2007-2009. As of July, the most recent month for which figures are available, 36.3 million people were receiving the aid. THE NUMBER OF FOOD STAMP RECIPIENTS HAS GONE DOWN 6.4 MILLION, OR 15.1%, SINCE JANUARY 2017, WHEN TRUMP TOOK OFFICE. The number of recipients is now 11.5 million below the peak month of December 2012. But it is still 8.9 million above where it was at the start of the Great Recession, in December 2007, despite years of an improving economy Oil Production and Imports U.S. CRUDE OIL PRODUCTION RESUMED ITS UPWARD TREND UNDER TRUMP, rising 33.6% during the most recent 12 months on record (ending in July), compared with all of 2016. Domestic oil production has increased every year since 2008, except for a 6.1% drop in 2016 after prices plunged to as low as $30 a barrel, from more than $100 in 2014. The price returned to more than $50 a barrel by the end of 2016, PROMPTING INCREASED DRILLING AND PRODUCTION. THE PRICE HAS AVERAGED NEARLY $58 SINCE TRUMP TOOK OFFICE. As a result of this RISING PRODUCTION, THE TREND TO REDUCED RELIANCE ON FOREIGN OIL ALSO RESUMED. The U.S. imported an estimated 11.4% of its oil and petroleum products last year — less than half of the 24.4% figure for all of 2016. That percentage has fallen further this year — to well under 10% for each month for which the EIA currently has estimates. AND IT MAY SOON BE ZERO BEFORE TOO LONG. The EIA projected in JANUARY THAT THE U.S. WOULD LIKELY BE EXPORTING MORE PETROLEUM THAN IT IMPORTS BY THE END OF 2020.
