Although President Biden, 81, was at the southern border last week hearing about the migrant crisis, he wasn’t handing out voting cards and ballots.
Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump talks with Maj. Gen. Thomas Suelzer, Adjutant General for the State of Texas, at Shelby Park during a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, Thursday, Feb. 29, 2024, in Eagle Pass, Texas. Of all the lies Donald Trump has told in and out of office, perhaps one of the most egregious is his continued contention that migrants are being allowed entry into the country as part of some vast conspiracy to “overthrow” the United States government.
Maybe that’s what Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker had on his mind the other day when he said of the former 77-year-old president: “Donald Trump was stupid and ignorant long before he got old.” Current migrants probably won’t be voter-eligible until a few years down the political road, when another member of the Trump cabal runs for office. After Super Tuesday, the former president looks like he has the GOP nomination for another run at the White House in the bag.
Some of his supporters may believe that. Fox News talking heads definitely believe it. Don’t let facts get in the way of a good stump speech, or ratings, or hysterics. Another part of the journey for immigrants, no matter where they originated from, is that once those five years of U.S. residency are met, they can apply for naturalization. After that, they have to take a citizenship test. In English.
In 2023, volunteers at the nonprofit helped some 150 residents of Lake County become U.S. citizens. Also last year, HACES immigration case workers helped 214 individuals submit applications seeking asylum in this country.
