The Real Cost Of An Open Border: How Americans Are Paying The Price

Probably the very first area of civic life where most Americans will experience the impact of the Biden border crisis will be in the public schools.

Local schools face the most immediately visible impacts because a main feature of the Biden border crisis, and also of the earlier Trump swell of late 2018-early 2019, was that immigrants in family groups around the world discovered a certain legal loophole - known as the Flores Settlement.

The public is never told how many advanced-stage or school-aged children got in through these exemptions and entered public school systems.

Based on publicly available data, it's difficult to estimate just how many school-aged children brought in over the border joined the estimated 49 million children enrolled in American public school systems.

In Austin Independent School District, teachers protested in April 2022 about a 400-student influx of immigrant teenagers from Central America at its International High School and Eastside Early College High School campus.

From four schools, CISD is now 12 schools and 60 portable classrooms funded by continual bond elections and with plans for a $1.2 billion expansion to twenty more schools over the next decade to accommodate an anticipated student body of 20,000 students as Colony Ridge continues a massive migration-fueled expansion.

In addition to sudden painful public school enrollments, most Americans will suffer more crime committed by more illegal immigrants.
