A 24-page administration PowerPoint for congressional appropriators dated April 22, 2014 bluntly stated that border arrivals of "unaccompanied alien children" would rise "by nearly a factor of 10" in 2014 to 60,000 and jump to 127,000 "if these growth rates continue." It is shown below.
Citing the 2014 prediction, which was nearly correct, Cruz wrote, "Far from being an unforeseen crisis, the high number of UAC that approached the United States-Mexico border last summer appears to have been calmly predicted."
He also said the administration is "tailoring" the reasons why so many illegals fled to America. Officials had said that home-grown violence drove kids out of their countries, making them sound like victims, but the briefing said that 51 percent "cite economic opportunity as a reason for migrating."
And he drew attention to the briefing pages that suggest agencies are commingling expenses to "conceal the true cost" of the program while also likely spending State Department money to fight the problem in Latin America.
An interesting article regarding the Feds knowing full well that there was going to be a surge of children last year. It also includes the powerpoint and the Letter that Ted Cruz wrote.
