Rick Perry Signed Reduced Budget On DPS Border Security, Wants GOP To Kill Bill Addressing CrisisPerry's biggest "oops" moment may not be that he couldn't remember the 3rd federal agency he'd like to nix as president, but that he signed a budget in 2013 that reduced the amount of state money allocated for border security to the DPS.

Today Rick Perry made the rounds on national TV to berate the White House over its handling of the border situation, but he also told Britt Hume of Fox News that he does not support Congress appropriating the $3.7 billion that President Obama has suggested to address the problem.

More on Perry's current budget cuts to border security below the jump...

Perry chided Obama for missing a photo op along the border, but when it was his turn, instead of meeting with the children or charity groups he took to a boat with Sean Hannity and a machine gun.

Naw, you just believe what you are fed by the Daily Kos et al.

Try this:

The leaked EPIC report discusses the motivational factors of the illegal immigrants in their choice to migrate to the United States:


(U//LES) In late May, the U.S. Border Patrol interviewed unaccompanied children (UAC) and migrant families apprehended in the Rio Grande Valley. Of the 230 total migrants interviewed, 219 cited the primary reason for migrating to the United States was the perception of U.S. immigration laws granting free passes or permisos to UAC and adult female OTMs traveling with minors. Migrants indicated that knowledge of permisos was widespread across Central America due to word of mouth, local, and international media messaging—prompting many to depart for the United States within 30 days of becoming aware of these perceived benefits, according to the same reporting.

(U//LES) A majority of migrants interviewed also noted that they had encountered family units, consisting of a mother and child under the age of 18 during their journey to the United States and that the families had indicated they planned to surrender to U.S. authorities because they were informed that they would likely be released.


The EPIC report discusses the lack of correlation between violence rates in Central America and the current border crisis:
(U//LES) EPIC assesses homicide trends and migrant interviews suggest violence is likely not the principal factor driving the increase in UAC migration. While CBP data from early fiscal year 2011 indicates a steady increase in OTM and UAC migration, United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) statistics— within this same timeframe— show a decline in per capita homicide rates in these three countries; El Salvador saw the sharpest decline, followed by Honduras and Guatemala, respectively.


The EPIC report discusses the media outlets that the illegal immigrants claimed shaped their perceptions about U.S. policies towards illegal immigrants of this nature:

… Migrants cited Univision, Primer Impacto, Al Rojo Vivo and several Honduran television news outlets for helping shape their perception of U.S. immigration policy.
(U) Although EPIC lacks reliable reporting of Central American newspapers broadcasting the perceived benefits of U.S. immigration policies, several U.S. media outlets since June 2014 have identified Central American newspapers that have enticed minors to travel to the United States. For example, Honduran and El Salvadoran press have reportedly advertised the DACA policy, accommodations for detained UAC, and the promise of reunification with family members in the United States.

Or this:


How much can he do without congressional approval? Actually, quite a bit. The president has the power to grant many of the estimated 11 million undocumented immigrants already in the U.S. relief from deportation simply by instructing the Department of Homeland Security not to pursue their cases. In 2012, after Congress repeatedly declined to pass the Dream Act, which would have offered citizenship to immigrants whose parents brought them to the U.S. illegally as children, Obama said he would offer the immigrants “deferred action”—essentially a two-year stay on deportation proceedings. More than 550,000 people have qualified.

That last sentence shows you exactly where the impetus for the border stampede is coming from.
