Obama has officially requested $3.7 billion in emergency funds for the border crisis with $1.6 billion going to the DOJ and DHS, $1.8 billion for Health and Human Services and $300 million for the State Department.
Obama caused this crisis and did so intentionally. We have proof that this was a planned event that was prepared for at least as early as this past January. We’ve even had a border agent defy gag orders to expose this as an intended operation.
Now Obama will flood federal agencies with cash in order to beef them up with more personnel, arms and paramilitary units. Very little of this money will be used to actually handle the crisis – these illegals are here to stay.
“Today, I ask the Congress to consider the enclosed emergency supplemental appropriations request. . .to comprehensively address this urgent humanitarian situation,” President Obama said in a letter to House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio).
The administration’s comprehensive strategy represents a “super-aggressive deterrence and enforcement strategy,” a senior administration official told reporters, speaking on a conference call on condition of anonymity to provide more details.
Breaking down the White House’s $3.7 billion requestThe request also will include an additional $615 million to help the federal government fight wildfires.
Administration officials had previously said that they would be requesting more than $2 billion to help stem the recent surge of women and children from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. More than 52,000 unaccompanied minors and 39,000 women with children have been apprehended on the southern border this year, far more than in past years.

SOOOO HE WANTS MORE MONEY FOR OBAMA CARE
NO!!!! He would not even visit the border detention camps. What a piece of work. Secure the border, finish the fence and then we will discuss working towards funding $#%&!@* that doesn’t need it. Obama has to be worst Business strategist this country has ever seen. He has no idea how to handle money or run anything that requires some responsibility. He just has no clue……………
tell him to pay for it him self
Perfect solution!
$#%&!@* no do not give the bastard my money
Defund his every request ! No amnesty and No money.
They should “NOT GIVE him one red cent, They should put him in jail along with all his buddies!!!!!
Up yours, Comrade Hussein ovomit.
Where does he come up with these numbers. Before any government department gets a red cent they should itemize everything the money is supposed to cover. Congress should then have intense oversight to make sure the money is spent wisely and on the items for which it approved the money.
AWCheney says:
“I wonder what he’s actually going to do with the money? Another vacation, perhaps…or more publicity to entice and hired guns to distribute millions more illegal aliens throughout the country. He’s already laid off the ICE personnel in Murrieta (those tasked with PROTECTING the border) and is bringing in his personal Executive Branch army riot squads to get rid of the protesters. http://www.americasfreedomfighters.com/2014/07/08/obama-gives-murrieta-area-ice-agents-paid-temporary-leave/ He doesn’t want to stop anything…he wants to accelerate it.”
