Obama Admin Funds Blitz To Naturalize Anti-Trump Voters
The Daily Caller ^ | 03/28/2016 | Chuck Ross

Posted on 03/29/2016 8:34:19 AM PDT by Rusty0604

The Obama administration is supporting several non-profit groups — with federal funding through a major White House initiative — that are part of an organized effort aimed at converting green-card holders into U.S. citizens in order to vote against Donald Trump, ...

Through an initiative called Networks for Integrating New Americans initiative, which the White House formed in April 2014, the administration has partnered with the National Partnership for New Americans (NPNA), an immigration rights umbrella organization that has denounced Trump’s “hateful rhetoric.”

In a recent post to its Facebook page, NPNA asserted that green-card holders “have the potential to change America’s electorate” by gaining citizenship.

And through U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Obama administration has provided hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to groups that have cited Trump as one reason that green-card holders should obtain citizenship before the general election in November.

The findings raise questions over whether groups that receive federal funds should be allowed to openly target specific presidential candidates. They also suggest what many conservative critics of immigration reform have long asserted: that one of the goals of activist citizenship groups is to create a new batch of Democratic voters.

As part of the task force, NPNA operates under the direction of World Education, Inc., a Boston-based social and economic development group. The initiative is being funded by the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of Career, Technical, and Adult Education.

The White House-backed NPNA makes its anti-Trump bent no secret.

NPNA’s Facebook page is also littered with anti-Trump rhetoric and links to articles criticizing the candidate. It frequently uses the hashtags “#StandUpToHate” and “#NaturalizeNow” as part of its campaign.

The Obama administration is also backing anti-Trump groups through a $10 million U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) citizenship and integration grant program.

So our tax dollars are going to fund candidate specific political activities.

These groups also helped shut down Trump's Chicago event. So what are these new citizens and voters learning about the first amendment?

Since Obama knows he won’t be stopped, he does whatever he wants. No way this is legal.

It seems to me that if an immigrant really wants to be a citizen for the right reason, they would not have to be prodded into doing so.

***
From the article:

And Soros, through his Open Society Foundations network, is funding numerous organizations that oppose Trump and support amnesty and other pro-immigrant reforms.

Several of those groups were involved in protests that led to the cancellation of a Trump rally in Chicago earlier this month. One of those is the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR), a Chicago-based outfit that is closely affiliated with National Partnership for New Americans, the group involved in the Obama White House’s citizenship enrollment task force.

Don’t look to our supposedly “conservative dominated” Congress for any relief...even as ø walks all over what is clearly their Constitutional responsibility.

I guess I’m ignorant but how does the President fund anything? I thought the House had the pursestrings.

Obama DHS Secretary: Illegal Aliens Are “In Effect” US Citizens

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3415170/posts

Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson told an audience today that illegal aliens are “not going away” and are “in effect” US citizens.

[ ]
But in the meantime, he is making the case that the illegals here, estimated at a much higher 15.7 million by the Center for Immigration Studies, have essentially become American. The proof: They go to school, have licenses to drive, and can even practice law in California.

The house supposedly does, but Obama just ignores them. Another article posted today about the State Department giving 500 million to a green initiative fund that wasn’t appropriate d.

Is our gov’t giving citizenship preference to Hispanic green-card holders over non-Hispanic green-card holders?

doesn’t that violate some law?

can the House cut the funding?
