30 Million Illegal Immigrants Already in U.S.
New York, NY -- While federal government officials insist that only 11-12 million illegal immigrants currently live in the United States, a controversial new book asserts that the true number is closer to 30 million. “Minutemen: The Battle to Secure America's Borders” -- written by Minuteman Project founder Jim Gilchrist and Jerome R. Corsi, Ph.D. -- documents the flaws in the federal government's estimates and offers a revised count of illegals on U.S. soil.
Besides basing their estimates on flawed data, federal officials prefer a deliberate undercount that obscures the extent of the illegal immigration crisis, claim Gilchrist and Corsi. Their book “Minutemen” reveals that when the government's flawed assumptions are corrected, and when groups such as the children of illegal immigrants and recipients of past amnesty programs are included in the count, the estimated number of people residing in the United States due to illegal immigration soars to approximately 30 million, or one-tenth of the entire U.S. population.
“Even defenders of the 'official' estimate of 12 million illegal immigrants acknowledge that it is flawed, but the magnitude of the flaw is greater than anyone in Washington DC is willing to admit,” notes Gilchrist, who founded the volunteer, multi-ethnic Minuteman Project to demonstrate that America’s borders could be successfully guarded.
“This month the U.S. Senate refused to approve the funds necessary to construct the same border fence that it authorized in May,” adds Gilchrist. “Clearly the federal government does not want to close our nation's open borders, so why should we believe that it is being honest in estimating the number of illegal immigrants already in the country? Telling the truth would make it too difficult to get political support for another amnesty program.” Read more at prweb.com/releases
Grants of TPS are initially made for periods of 6 to 18 months
Temporary Protected Status (TPS) - Establishes a legislative basis for allowing a group of persons temporary refuge in the United States. Under a provision of the Immigration Act of 1990, the Attorney General may designate nationals of a foreign state to be eligible for TPS with a finding that conditions in that country pose a danger to personal safety due to ongoing armed conflict or an environmental disaster. Grants of TPS are initially made for periods of 6 to 18 months and may be extended depending on the situation. Removal proceedings are suspended against aliens while they are in Temporary Protected Status.
