Biden-Harris admin sued for answers on illegal immigrants flown into US

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has announced that he is suing the Biden-Harris administration for documents concerning the administration’s alleged effort to fly illegal immigrants from the border into Missouri.

“I am filing suit against @JoeBiden and @KamalaHarris for REFUSING to turn over documents about the flying of illegal immigrants into Missouri,” Bailey wrote on Monday in a post on X, formerly Twitter. “We have reason to believe they are deliberately flying illegal aliens from the border into our cities. Not on my watch.”

In a press release the attorney general’s office explained that the lawsuit was being filed against the Department of Homeland Security due to the administration failing to fulfill a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request regarding the transportation of illegal immigrants into the state.

“Once again, the Biden Administration is trying to stonewall and circumvent every aspect of the law in order to hide information from Americans,” Bailey said. “Their most recent refusal to provide the truth about the flying of illegal immigrants into Missouri is just the tip of the iceberg. It reflects a larger pattern of deploying delay and diversion tactics to avoid producing documents legally requested under FOIA.”

According to The Post Millennial, Bailey’s lawsuit follows a letter sent in May by Rep. Mark Alford (R-Mo.) and other Republican Missouri lawmakers to Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. At the time, lawmakers requested answers from Mayorkas regarding the Biden administration’s efforts to fly illegal immigrants into the United States.

In the letter, Republican lawmakers expressed a “deep concern” regarding the Biden administration’s Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua, and Venezuela (CHNV) parole program and warned that the Department of Homeland Security had “reached far beyond the statutory authority granted to them by Congress” by flying more than 400,000 illegal immigrants into the United States.

The letter cited a list provided by the Department of Homeland Security, which indicated that at least two people had been flown into Missouri in 2023. “We have grave concerns about bringing unvetted, and otherwise inadmissible illegal aliens into the United States,” the lawmakers stated.

The Missouri lawmakers asked Mayorkas to explain what steps the administration was taking to keep track of illegal immigrants flown into the United States under the CHNV parole program and to provide a number of how many total individuals had been flown into Missouri.

Bailey’s lawsuit states, “The transportation of illegal immigrants into Missouri is a matter of public concern, and the citizens of Missouri have a right to know the facts behind these activities.”
