Biden Pushes to Allow Illegal Aliens to Live in National Parks Using Federal Funds

Biden Pushes to Allow Illegal Aliens to Live in National Parks Using Federal Funds© Provided by State Of The Union
Republicans in the House of Representatives passed a bill prohibiting federal funding for housing illegal immigrants on federally managed land.
The legislation was introduced by Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis and received 224 votes for and 203 against.
The bill was prompted by the Biden administration’s policy of using National Park Service lands to house migrant camps, which was condemned by the House Committee on Natural Resources. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1X0E5ldvpNfN4-36Q7bVTc3kITqstxb73_HAFZM1uHXo/edit#gid=51041811

Republican Rep. Nicole Malliotakis of New York said, “Turning our federal parks into encampments for unvetted migrants from all over the world is unfair to surrounding communities, and the taxpayers being forced to foot the bill while having their public spaces taken away.”
“I’ve joined local and federal colleagues to use every legal and legislative tool at our disposal, from lawsuits to this legislation, to stop the Biden, [New York Gov. Kathy] Hochul and [New York City Mayor Eric] Adams administrations from taking more open space from our citizens,” she added.
“I appreciate the House Committee on Natural Resources coming to New York City to see the grave misuse of federal land firsthand and thank them for quickly taking up my legislation, putting us one step closer to ending this madness once and for all.”
Six Democrats also voted for the measure. No Republicans voted against it.

The Gateway National Recreation Area in New York City said, “Republican members visited this proposed site and saw firsthand that it’s an incredible resource for NYC residents and visitors, providing kayaking, fishing and other outdoor recreation opportunities in the middle of an urban area.”
“Turning the Gateway National Recreation Area into a migrant camp would immediately cut off the access NYC residents have enjoyed for years.”
The White House strongly opposed the bill, but its passage suggests a potential compromise in the larger budget fight.
Committee Chairman Bruce Westerman said, “Not only have these failures directly resulted in 6 million illegal crossings since Joe Biden took office, a devastating fentanyl crisis and an increase in terrorism threats, but now the administration is attempting to permanently alter our national parks by permitting the construction of migrant camps on some of America’s most treasured lands.”
“According to this precedent, President Biden’s failing border policies are coming to a park near you.”
“The Administration strongly opposes H.R. 5283, which would prohibit the use of Federal funds to provide temporary shelter to certain noncitizens, including migrants seeking asylum, on Federal lands falling under the jurisdiction of the National Park Service, the Bureau of Land Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, or the Forest Service,” the White House said in a “Statement of Administration Policy.”
“The Administration opposes this legislation because it would significantly restrict the ability of the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture to make decisions regarding the appropriate uses of their lands and resources, even in emergency or other situations.”

At the end of November, a small farm out of Arizona shared a truly touching video of a very special reunion between a little boy and a cow.
The video explains that the cow below was once their favorite cow, but after it went to live with their neighbor the neighbor decided to send it to slaughter before the original owners rescued him.
The touching video, shared by the TikTok account for @farmofmilkandhoney has people all in their feelings. @Aidann says, “That cow is a very happy cow, she even licking her nose, she’s very happy, congrats to your son!” @Kayla adds, “Aww that cow loves him! His going to remember this forever!” @Marison replies, “This is gonna be such a good core memory for him.” @Andrea responds, “What a show of compassion and empathy for your son. Good job Papa.”

In a previous video the Farm of Milk and Honey explained that after their neighbor purchased the cow from them a few months later he decided to stop farming and offered to sell the farm back their cow, for a huge amount of money. When the previous owners refused the cow went to auction and they waited online for two days to be able to bid on her to bring her home all so that their son could have his favorite cow returned to him.

Why Animals are so Important for Kids
Growing up with animals teaches young kids so many invaluable lessons. It teaches kids empathy, compassion, responsibility and studies have shown that it can reduce stress and improve self-esteem. According to a report from the Pet Health Council, kids with pets have higher self-esteem and confidence because they talk to, or confide in, the animal in ways that they would not do with people. Studies have also shown that kids with pets helps with stress relief and “Having a pet to interact with helps children with stress management,” explains Mayra Mendez, licensed psychotherapist and program coordinator at the Providence Saint John’s Child and Family Development Center in Santa Monica, California, “[because] play with a pet releases tension.” It also encourages children to be active. Dogs need to be walked, cats enjoy being played with, and walking to a barn to visit a favorite cow gets a kid out into the fresh air and sunshine. This is just a win for both animals and kids.
Another person commented, “Thank you for saving her! Cows are some of the sweetest, most docile, and maternal beings. Your son is so lucky to experience this! I wish more did!” We couldn’t agree more. This is something that this child will likely remember forever.
We are so happy this little boy is back together with how cow bestie again and we hope they have the best time growing up with each other.
