Breitbart: Investigation: NGOs Make Billions Giving Illegal Aliens 'Safari-Style Guide Maps' to the U.S.
A Florida grand jury reveals NGOs profiting billions from federal contracts to resettle illegal aliens in the US. Over 900,000 border crossers were released into the country from October 2022 to September 2023, many with no valid asylum claims. These migrants take advantage of federal welfare programs meant for struggling Americans. NGOs facilitating illegal immigration receive little monitoring, and billions of dollars in grant funds are disbursed with little accountability. Florida officials are urged to form a separate grand jury to investigate the questionable activities of NGOs. Illegals cost US taxpayers $163 billion annually, not including social and economic costs.

Critics argued that a national approach is needed to improve air quality and urged for a decision by the full state legislature. Opponents also highlighted the lack of proper charging infrastructure in the state to support an EV mandate.
