Immigration Is Cash Cow 

for U.S. Bishops 

by Jules Gomes

Catholic CharitiesUSA (CCU), the largest social safety net provider in the country outside the federal government, has received nearly $1 billion from taxpayers via the Biden administration to facilitate illegal immigration, The Stream reported in September.

Among the beneficiaries is Catholic Charities San Antonio, which operates the Centro de Bienvenida Migrant Resource Center, and was awarded $10.9 million as part of a federal spending package in May.

The USCCB candidly admits on its website that it “engages with the federal appropriations process to obtain the maximum amount of funding needed to support the U.S. refugee program, which provides both overseas assistance and resettlement services to refugees.”

Each year, it advocates for “funding levels that maximize the number of refugees assisted overseas and resettled in the U.S., and that provide resettlement agencies sufficient resources to serve refugees in a comprehensive manner,” it states while appealing to private donors.

Meanwhile, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is investigating Annunciation House, a prominent Catholic charity supported by the USCCB, for “systemic criminal conduct” in “planning and facilitating” illegal border crossings from Mexico into the U.S.

In May, Paxton said his office had “obtained sworn testimony indicating that Annunciation House’s operations are designed to facilitate illegal border crossings and to conceal illegally present aliens from law enforcement.”

Covenant House, an agency of Catholic Charities, also allegedly housed Jose Ibarra, an illegal immigrant from Venezuela who entered the U.S. via El Paso in 2022, and murdered devout Christian nursing student Laken Riley in Georgia this February. 

Catholic Charities acts as a lobbyist. It urged Congress to provide permanent legal status and a pathway to citizenship for all essential workers, including frontline healthcare and agricultural workers, DREAMERS, and Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) holders.
