The federal government has eliminated a key component of a refugee program that offered hundreds of Central American minors and their relatives a chance to come to the United States legally as many fled poverty and violence in their homelands.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security on Wednesday announced termination of the Central American Minors Parole Program, saying the agency will no longer provide special consideration of parole for certain individuals denied refugee status in El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras through a petitioning process established in late 2014 under President Barack Obama.
The Obama administration had viewed the program and its parole provision as an alternative to uncontrolled migration of unaccompanied minors across the border.
The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which administers the program, said a total of 1,465 people had come to the country under the parole program as of last week 1,110 from El Salvador, 324 from Honduras and 31 from Guatemala. Another 2,714 people had been conditionally approved, but with the governments action Wednesday 2,444 Salvadorans, 231 Hondurans and 39 Guatemalans lost the opportunity.

There are pictures and video out there of Obama’s government employees escorting these Invaders to Social Security, welfare, and Passport offices. They even provided the invaders with little laminated badges with lanyards, and airplane tickets.

Canada is due North, start walking. Say Hi to Trudeau when you get there.
Yeah remember, the illegal alien “kids” were sent throughout the country to whomever claimed them ...some of the people were pedophiles, etc, they didn’t have to prove they were even blood kin...
This is one of the Obama’s Deep State IEDs.
Oh the “kids” were given immigration/refugee court dates that were years off into the future...and then they disappeared...some of them cant be found...
“kids” as in they could have been 25 year old men but they claimed they were under 18...
Operative words...”one of”......
The Swamp is DEEP now!
WINNING!!!
Canada is due North, start walking. Say Hi to Trudeau when you get there.
Trudeau is thinking about the next election and he’s getting nervous
Are they still digging up bodies of those killed by MS13 on Long Island?
In Virginia the police found another suspected MS13 victim’s body in the woods. The count keeps growing.
They have to go through Mexico to get here. Why don’t they stay? Unfriendly government there that doesn’t like illegal immigrants?
This number sounds low. At one time they were reporting 10s of thousands of minors being taken into the system.
Next shut down DACA.
Hypocritical Mexico won’t let them in.
