Biden administration wants to pay Central Americans to curb migration

Kamala Harris was tasked by President Biden to handle it.

According to Reuters, the logic of the White House behind consideration of this move is if the people of Central America aren’t poor anymore, they’d lose motivation to come. White House border coordinator Roberta Jacobson told the outlet the money would be directed to Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.

“We’re looking at all of the productive options to address both the economic reasons people may be migrating, as well as the protection and security reasons,” she said.

Jacobson added: “The one thing I can promise you is the U.S. government isn’t going to be handing out money or checks to people.”

However just a few days ago it was announced that $112 million was being sent to Central America for "humanitarian" reasons.

Jacobson didn’t specify further. However it’s worth noting that according to The New York Times, Roberta Jacobson is stepping down from her role as the US - Mexico border coordinator at the end of April.

Her departure interview had praises for President Biden: “They continue to drive toward the architecture that the president has laid out: an immigration system that is humane, orderly and safe. I leave optimistically. The policy direction is so clearly right for our country.”

It’s unclear what Jacobson meant given how Biden’s people recently signaled they’d likely restart construction on the US border wall project started by the Trump administration.

An official chart from the CBP showed the severity of the migration situation.

But it’s definitely the Biden border crisis given how human smugglers now openly advertise their services on social media. An opportunity that even people on terror watchlists try their luck on, with entering America.

Remarkable given how Congressman Steve Scalise can just walk down and see “dozens of [migrant] children” just walking straight on into America.

Press Secretary Jen Psaki confirmed that the Biden administration’s position is to simply let this continue to happen. Even though migrant children are used as props and later abandoned to fend for themselves.
