A Colombian company worked on behalf of a U.S. immigration law firm offering deportation defense, identifying prospective clients as the firm targeted illegal immigrants with its marketing, according to a newly discovered lawsuit.
The 2023 lawsuit reveals how entities both inside and outside of the United States continue to profit from America’s mass illegal immigration crisis. The Colombian company explained that it was tasked with “the identification of Spanish-speaking individuals confronting immigration problems” on behalf of the law firm.
The data gathered by the Colombian company and intended for the use by the law firm was improperly obtained by a competing law firm that also provides deportation defense and other legal services to illegal immigrants, according to <a href="https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/USCOURTS-njd-2_23-cv-03038/pdf/USCOURTS-njd-2_23-cv-03038-0.pdf">the lawsuit</a>.
The Colombian company Professional Consulting Services was hired to gather all relevant data. The Colombian company’s software enables it “to collect and organize the personal information of potential Spanish-speaking individuals who may need assistance with immigration matters,” the lawsuit states.

Professional Consulting Services then provided this information to the South Carolina-based law firm, Inmigracion al Dia, which explicitly assists illegal aliens, stating on its <a href="https://inmigracionaldia.com/">website</a> that they are a &#8220;team of attorneys with experience in immigration proceedings representing thousands of Hispanics in the United States.&#8221;
“It doesn&#8217;t matter how you got here,” the law firm says on its <a href="https://inmigracionaldia.com/">website</a> in Spanish. “We evaluate your options for legalizing your immigration status in the United States and help you find a path to enjoying the benefits of legal status.”
The company offers <a href="https://inmigracionaldia.com/cancelacion-de-remocion">deportation defense</a> services and assists those who want to apply for an immigration forgiveness waiver, which the firm <a href="https://inmigracionaldia.com/waiver-perdon">describes</a> as “a legal process that serves as a lifeline for people who are illegally in the United States, violating immigration laws.”

The leads generated by Professional Consulting Services on behalf of Inmigracion al Dia are alleged to have been improperly used by yet another U.S.-based law firm that specializes in serving illegal aliens. That firm, called Inmigracion OK, also courts illegal aliens and promises to help them remain in the United States.

“Are you undocumented in the United States? We could help you understand the process of obtaining papers.

“Are you in New York undocumented? We can guide you on how to obtain your work permit,” one ad says. “Are you in the United States without regular immigration status?” yet another ad asks.
One member of the law firm, Oscar Barbosa, has an office with another law firm called Diaspora Law, the lawsuit claims. Also based in New Jersey, Diaspora Law “specializes in family immigration, business immigration and deportation defense.”
“We are immigrants too. Diaspora Law is passionate about helping immigrants because we all have a deep connection to the cause,” <a href="https://www.diasporalaw.com/">the firm’s site</a> says, also adding that it works “with local organizations to advocate for fair changes in immigration law.”

WASHINGTON—President Donald Trump vowed Wednesday to complete the border wall with materials that former President Joe Biden sold off &#8220;for pennies on the dollar,&#8221; as The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-biden-races-to-sell-off-border-wall-parts-before-trump-takes-office">first reported in December</a>.
The president spoke with the press on Wednesday at the Kennedy Center after announcing the recipients of the annual Kennedy Center Honors. Asked by The Daily Wire about <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/border-wall-supplies-sold-off-by-biden-to-be-returned-to-trump-admin">reports that parts of the border wall</a> will be returned to the federal government, Trump promised: &#8220;We are taking that wall back.&#8221;
The president pointed to the Biden administration&#8217;s efforts to sell off the wall materials. Videos obtained exclusively by The Daily Wire from a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent in December showed trucks hauling away unused sections of the wall from a section of the border just south of Tucson, Arizona, a hotspot for illegal crossings during the Biden administration.
&#8220;They sold the wall,&#8221; the president said. &#8220;This is expensive stuff. Hardened steel, very expensive. 9,000-pound concrete and rebar. Rebar is very expensive. The hardest rebar. It&#8217;s very hard to cut. You have different materials. It&#8217;s very hard to cut. They cut it down if they can. It&#8217;s very hard to cut.&#8221;
&#8220;Biden sold it for pennies on the dollar, $0.03 on the dollar, $0.04 on the dollar, he sold it,&#8221; Trump added.
&#8220;Well, Pam Bondi has been working very hard on suing that company and I think they&#8217;ve reached a settlement where we&#8217;re taking the wall back,&#8221; Trump added, glancing at the attorney general, who was watching the president&#8217;s remarks along with other administration officials. &#8220;But they stole the wall from us. That wall was so expensive to build. And we had it, as you know, hundreds of miles of it. They came along and they basically sold it for scrap. What a shame that is.&#8221;
&#8220;But that was when I first realized that these people actually want to have open borders,&#8221; he added of the Biden administration. &#8220;No country — poor countries don&#8217;t have open borders. We had open borders where people just walked in, didn&#8217;t matter what they look like, who they were, they could have — we had 11,888 murderers. Half of whom killed more than one person. Literally. Killed more than one person. And this is who we took into our country. So the wall is the least of it.&#8221;
&#8220;We are going to take the wall back,&#8221; he said again. &#8220;We are paying a small amount of money, as I understand it, to get it back, to get rid of the litigation. We&#8217;ll take it back. We&#8217;ll put it up.&#8221;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">

&#8220;I built hundreds of miles of wall and I was getting very close,&#8221; the president said. &#8220;I actually finished the wall but then I added another 200 miles&#8230;I got it to the specifications of the border patrol and ICE, they wanted steel they wanted concrete inside, they wanted rebar inside that, they wanted it to have wires, the walls are wired for all the internet stuff and security things.&#8221;
&#8220;And we built it, hundreds of miles,&#8221; Trump explained. &#8220;We did great. That&#8217;s one of the reasons even now we are able to have such good [illegal immigration] numbers at 0, essentially, very little people coming in &#8230; I was going to do another 200 because that&#8217;s the way it is. We were all set to do it, and then we had the bad election result, horrible horrible what happened to our country, what they&#8217;ve allowed to happen to our country.&#8221;

Parts of the border wall that The Daily Wire revealed were auctioned off by the Biden administration are now expected to be returned to the Trump administration to support the President’s “border protection plans.”
The Biden administration <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-biden-races-to-sell-off-border-wall-parts-before-trump-takes-office">sold off</a> portions of the border wall in Arizona for pennies on the dollar in December, just one month before Trump reentered office in a move that critics called an attempt to hamstring the new administration. Now, those materials will be handed back over to the federal government.
GovPlanet, the government supply auctioning site that listed the border wall materials, says that it will expedite the return of the materials to the federal government, citing its support for the Trump administration’s border security plans.
“GovPlanet has reached an agreement, working with the Office of the Border Czar, to return border wall materials that were previously deemed surplus and sourced by the federal government to GovPlanet via existing contracts,” the company <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/politics/what-happened-border-wall-components-got-sold-off-under-biden">explained</a>. “We are expediting the transfer of these materials to support the administration&#8217;s border protection plans.”
The sale of the border wall materials, Rep. Eli Crane (R-AZ) told The Daily Wire, was an attempt by the Biden administration to hamstring the Trump administration. “The Biden Administration is well aware they shouldn’t have reversed the construction of the border wall. If it’s true, they’re purposefully hamstringing an incoming president, it wouldn’t be shocking,” Crane charged. “Why would they want to see President Trump succeed with policies they aggressively sabotaged?”
The Republican Congressman from Arizona called the sale “a direct affront to the will of the people,” who had given President Trump a mandate to secure the border just a month before The Daily Wire broke the news of the auctions.
The sale came after Biden presided over a record-breaking surge of illegal immigration into the United States.
The materials will now be handed over to a firm that has been contracted by the government to build the wall, GovPlanet says. “We value our longstanding partnership with the U.S. government and look forward to continuing to support America’s federal agencies,” GovPlanet added. “A third-party firm that has been contracted for construction of the border wall will take receipt of the materials over the next 90 days.”
GovPlanet also said that the supplies will be returned to the federal government “at-cost” in order to “protect the millions of dollars that U.S. taxpayers had already invested in this initiative.”

Three Venezuelan nationals released into the United States by the Biden administration have been charged in connection with a murder in Texas.
The three men were each <a href="https://x.com/BillMelugin_/status/1952396528934629851">charged</a> with capital murder and are believed to have shot and killed a 48-year-old man at a Motel 6 in Garland, Texas.
Two of the three men, Jose Trivino-Cruz and Jesus Bellorin-Guzman, were released into the United States by the Biden administration through the Customs and Border Patrol One app, an online platform that allowed migrants to remotely schedule asylum appointments and expedited the entry of thousands of migrants into the United States.
The third Venezuelan national charged in connection with the murder, named Yosguar Aponte-Jimenez, entered the United States illegally in 2023 before ultimately being released into the country by the Biden administration.
Two of the men are also believed to have held a woman at gunpoint at a different hotel that same day, allegedly robbing and sexually assaulting her.
“Three depraved criminal illegal aliens from Venezuela were released into the U.S. under the Biden administration and are now facing capital murder and robbery charges for shooting and killing a man at a motel in Dallas County, Texas,” Tricia McLaughlin, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Assistant Secretary, <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/news/2025/08/04/ice-lodges-arrest-detainers-3-criminal-illegal-aliens-venezuela-charged-capital">charged</a>. “Thanks to the brave men and women of ICE law enforcement, these criminal illegal aliens&#8217; crime spree is OVER.”
“These vicious criminals have no place in the U.S. ICE has lodged a detainer to ensure they are removed from our country after they face justice for their heinous crimes,” McLaughlin went on to add.
Both Jimenez and Trivino-Cruz are also believed to be involved in additional crimes. DHS says that Jimenez admitted to more than 25 robberies, while the federal agency says that Trivino-Cruz, who has been charged with aggravated robbery and indecent assault, confessed to perpetrating two robberies that same day.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has placed a detainer request on the three Venezuelan nationals and is expected to gain custody of the men.

Crossings over the treacherous landbridge that connects South and Central America, called the Darien Gap, have plummeted to near-zero amid the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration.
The Darien Gap, which connects Colombia and Panama, witnessed hundreds of thousands of migrants traveling north through it in 2023 during the Biden administration. But <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/07/30/migrant-traffic-darien-gap-panama-trump">just 10 migrants</a> traveled north through the dangerous stretch of jungle in June, marking a stunning drop after six months of the Trump administration.
The Department of Homeland Security celebrated the precipitous decline in crossings through the Darien Gap.
“In Panama&#8217;s Darien Gap, migrants are turning BACK before they even reach our border — only 10 migrants crossed in June,&#8221; DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said, adding that the new figures amount to more than a 99.8% drop from migration through the region under the Biden administration. &#8220;The world is hearing our message that America&#8217;s borders are closed to lawbreakers.&#8221;
The figures come as migrant encounters on the southern border of the United States continue to drop dramatically, with officials <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/border-patrol-saw-fewer-migrant-encounters-last-month-than-one-single-day-under-biden-homan-says?author=Spencer+Lindquist&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=28&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Border+Patrol+Saw+Fewer+Migrant+Encounters+Last+Month+Than+One+Single+Day+Under+Biden%2C+Homan+Says">recording fewer encounters</a> in the month of June than were seen in single days under the Biden administration.
Not only are migrants not traveling through the jungle passageway — which is replete with alligators and snakes — many even turned around and went south through the region at the start of President Donald Trump’s term.
Colombia <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/latin-american-country-sees-massive-drop-in-migration-attributes-decline-to-trump-border-policies">witnessed</a> a drastic increase in the number of migrants crossing back into the narrow stretch of jungle toward their home countries in South America earlier this year. The nation recorded just under 10,000 people crossing back south from January to February, a significant increase from the previous year, when just over 4,000 returned south from the Darien Gap.
The Colombian government issued a report indicating that the new trend was the result of the Trump administration’s border security policies. “The majority of migrants indicate they come from Mexico, where they had been waiting for an appointment with U.S. authorities for one to three months,” the report noted before going on to say “with the change in U.S. immigration policies, they made the decision to return.”
Panamanian President Jose Mulino asserted in March that his administration would not allow migrants to cross into the Darien Gap and ordered the closure of sites to assist migrants in their northward trek.

The Department of Homeland Security has busted scores of illegal alien human traffickers and sex predators, and The Daily Wire has obtained exclusive details on the criminal illegals busted by the federal law enforcement agency.
Operations spanning from Newark, New Jersey, to Camarillo, California, resulted in the arrest of dozens of illegal aliens perpetrating the heinous crimes, with the federal agency saying that “the full weight of the American government is bringing the hammer down on human trafficking rings.”
“The brave men and women of DHS are the best in the world at going after traffickers. They are always able to track down those who are trafficking individuals, find the ringleaders, and rip that evil off by its head,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem told The Daily Wire.
“I’m so thankful that I get the chance to lead individuals like that, and agents who get up every day to help save our children and to save women and men from the kind of slavery that we’ve seen,” the secretary went on to say, celebrating the work of DHS agents to bust human trafficking rings on the World Day Against Trafficking in Persons.
One late July operation in Newark resulted in the arrest of four illegal alien child predators by ICE agents over a four-day span. Those arrested in the enforcement action, which was part of Operation Apex Predator, were all registered sex offenders.
A July 22 operation resulted in the arrest of a human smuggler in Laredo, Texas, who was found to be smuggling 101 migrants in a locked trailer. Of those 101 individuals, 12 were children. The man was sentenced to 63 months in prison.
ICE and the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation teamed up to levy a four-count indictment against eight people with ties to the criminal gang Tren de Aragua, with the defendants charged for their involvement in a “transnational commercial sex enterprise.”
In one particularly disturbing case, Homeland Security Investigations arrested an Ecuadoran national in New York for the sexual violation of a minor. Authorities discovered that a 15-year-old girl who was pregnant with the man&#8217;s child had been apprehended after attempting to illegally enter the United States, and that the man had been in a relationship with the child in Ecuador since she was 13 years old. The Ecuadoran national, authorities say, arranged to have her smuggled into the United States.
Not all of the perpetrators busted by federal authorities were illegal aliens. One American citizen, who was apprehended by the U.S. Marshals working in coordination with Customs and Border Protection, was identified as a &#8220;high-priority target linked to a criminal syndicate operating in human exploitation.&#8221; The suspect was arrested in Yuma, Arizona, and was wanted for placing individuals into prostitution, residing in a house of prostitution, and profiting from the earnings of prostitution.
Other operations targeted human smuggling rings that sought to bring illegal aliens into the United States for profit. The federal agency busted a transnational smuggling ring on May 2, when it discovered that four Mexican illegal aliens were running an “international human smuggling conspiracy” to bring illegal aliens into the United States from the Canadian border. Those smuggled into the United States would pay thousands of dollars to the criminal ring.
Homeland Security busted another smuggling ring on March 25, when a woman who had smuggled more than 100 Colombians into the United States was sentenced to 30 months in prison following her arrest by ICE in Arizona.
Customs and Border Protection apprehended a Mexican national in California’s Port San Luis who sedated a child and attempted to smuggle the child across the border. The woman claimed that she was the mother and presented a false birth certificate, with agents discovering that the woman did not have any familial ties to the child.
Under Trump and Noem, Homeland Security has also cracked down on forced labor rings. One South Korean company, Taepyung Salt Farm, is <a href="https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/national-media-release/cbp-issues-withhold-release-order-taepyung-salt-farm">no longer able to import</a> its products to the United States, with Customs and Border Protection agents detaining their imports on account of “information that reasonably indicates the use of forced labor in the production of the company’s sea salt products.”
Agents also shut down a now-infamous marijuana growing operation in Camarillo, California, rescuing 14 migrant children who were at risk of exploitation, trafficking, and forced labor. Agents arrested a whopping 361 illegal aliens, including some with charges for rape, attempted rape, kidnapping, and attempted child molestation.

The Trump administration has set a new monthly record for criminal prosecution of illegal aliens in June, as it utilizes a powerful tool in its multi-agency approach to crack down on illegal immigration.
The Department of Justice (DOJ) brought cases against more than 3,000 illegal aliens last month, charging the foreign nationals with illegal reentry, a new <a href="https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2025/jul/28/trump-sets-new-record-criminal-prosecutions-illegal-immigrants/">report</a> indicates. The charge can be brought against illegal aliens who reenter the United States after having been previously deported back to their country of origin. DOJ prosecutors brought an additional 3,200 cases against illegal aliens for illegal entry.
The decision to criminally prosecute thousands of illegal aliens is part of the administration’s “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/how-trump-sealed-the-border-in-his-first-100-days">whole of government</a>” approach to curtailing illegal immigration. The DOJ asserted that it is “using all available investigative and prosecutorial tools” in the effort to fight the “invasion of illegal immigration.”
Jonathan Fahey, former assistant U.S. attorney in Virginia and the acting director at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in President Trump’s first term, explained that the cases almost always end in a conviction. Prosecutors are tasked with proving that the illegal alien has previously been deported, but is currently present in the United States despite the prior deportation.
“They’re a great way to get a conviction, a great way to get a criminal off the street, and a great way to remove them from the country in an expeditious way,” Fahey noted.
While cases have been brought against illegal aliens in states across the country, the increase in prosecutions has been particularly notable in New Mexico. Authorities in the state brought forward 245 cases in May and another 277 in June, marking more than a 100 percent increase since late 2024, when fewer than 100 cases were brought forward each month.
The cases are one more way that the Trump administration has discouraged illegal immigration and encouraged illegal aliens currently present in the United States to self-deport back to their country of origin.
The strategies appear to have been effective, with illegal alien encounters <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/border-patrol-saw-fewer-migrant-encounters-last-month-than-one-single-day-under-biden-homan-says?author=Spencer+Lindquist&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=24&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Border+Patrol+Saw+Fewer+Migrant+Encounters+Last+Month+Than+One+Single+Day+Under+Biden%2C+Homan+Says">plummeting</a> more than 90 percent in certain months while tens of thousands of illegal aliens are said to have <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/tens-of-thousands-of-illegal-aliens-self-deport-through-cbp-home-app-report?author=Spencer+Lindquist&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=7&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Tens+Of+Thousands+Of+Illegal+Aliens+Self-Deport+Through+CBP+Home+App%3A+Report">voluntarily left</a> the United States.

Trump Admin Sets New Record For Illegal Alien Prosecutions

Department of Justice

Deportations

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)

Groups tied to the left-wing billionaire George Soros are rallying in support of a Republican congresswoman&#8217;s plan to give millions of illegal aliens legal status in the United States.
Rep. Maria Salazar&#8217;s (R-FL) Dignity Act would allow illegal aliens to apply for a renewable, seven-year legal status, so long as they don’t have a criminal record beyond illegal entry. Illegal aliens who’ve been shielded from deportation under the Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program would be allowed to gain permanent legal status.
Conservatives have slammed the legislation as a handout to illegal aliens. But liberal groups, some with a history of supporting the legalization of all illegal aliens, are lining up behind the joint effort from Salazar and Rep. Veronica Escobar (D-TX).
That includes several organizations with ties to George Soros, the leftist billionaire and Democrat donor who has <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/immigration/2022/10/01/soros-open-society-foundation-millions-pro-amnesty-pro-illegal-immigration-groups/">bankrolled</a> efforts across the country to encourage mass immigration and offer mass amnesty to illegal aliens before leveraging new immigrants as a Democratic voting bloc.
One <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/how-soros-backed-organizations-leverage-waves-of-new-immigrants-to-sway-elections">Soros-backed group</a> tracked the demographics of key swing states and worked to naturalize immigrants to “sway the outcome of national, state, and local elections.”

Another Soros-backed group, called United We Dream, raked in $700,000 from the far-left billionaire as it called for an amnesty for all illegal aliens, the closing of ICE detention facilities, and the defunding of ICE and Border Patrol.
Now, Soros-aligned organizations are lining up behind the Dignity Act.
One radical organization that advocates for an amnesty for all illegal aliens, FWD.us, came out <a href="https://www.fwd.us/news/fwd-us-statement-on-reintroduction-of-the-bipartisan-dignity-act/">in support</a> of Salazar’s bill in a statement that also bashed President Donald Trump’s immigration policies and “attacks on immigrant communities.”
“The bipartisan Dignity Act is a much-needed step forward. We thank Congresswomen Salazar and Escobar, along with the bill’s other co-sponsors, for reintroducing this important bipartisan legislation,” the far-left group wrote.
The organization doubled down on its support for mass amnesty for all illegal aliens, framing the Dignity Act as a step towards the group’s end goal.
“We will continue to fight for a more fair and just immigration system, including a pathway to citizenship for all undocumented immigrants building their lives in the United States. We hope today’s reintroduction will be met by more steps towards commonsense immigration reform,” the group stated.
The organization frequently <a href="https://www.fwd.us/news/fwd-us-statement-on-trump-administrations-plan-to-end-tps-for-honduras-and-nicaragua/">criticizes</a> the Trump administration&#8217;s <a href="https://www.fwd.us/news/fwd-us-statement-on-trump-administration-executive-orders-on-immigration/">policies</a> on immigration and <a href="https://www.fwd.us/news/fwd-us-statement-on-the-2024-election-results/">complained</a> when he won the 2024 election.
The group’s partner organization, the Fwd.us Education Fund, has <a href="https://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/grants/past?filter_keyword=fwd.us">received nearly $600,000</a> from the Open Society Foundation, a project of billionaire Democrat donor and far-left philanthropist George Soros. One $125,000 grant bankrolled an effort “to catalogue and provide comprehensive legal analysis of federal immigration policy.” The Fwd.us Education Fund shares the same board members as Fwd.us.
The group also <a href="https://www.fwd.us/team/executive/todd-schulte/">opposed</a> the Trump administration&#8217;s Remain in Mexico policy, which bars illegal aliens from entering the country while asylum claims are being adjudicated. FWD.us did not respond to a request for comment.
FWD.us is far from the only leftist organization that has come out in support of the effort to grant legal status to millions of illegal aliens.
Far-left organization UnidosUS also sang the praises of the bill online. “The reintroduction of the Dignity Act comes at a critical time. Immigrant families across the country are living with fear and uncertainty amid rising enforcement and threats of mass deportation,” the group wrote in a <a href="https://x.com/weareunidosus/status/1945595952099721670?s=46&amp;t=Xt7LDGYR54I2nQa-aK0rOA">post on X</a>. “We welcome bipartisan efforts to protect long-residing immigrants who have built their lives here. Any serious solution must offer stability, legal status and a path forward.”
The organization was awarded a $22 million grant from the Biden administration to encourage that “vulnerable populations,” including illegal aliens, receive the COVID-19 vaccine, The Daily Wire <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/the-government-is-spending-22-million-to-help-illegal-immigrants-get-covid-vaccines">reported</a>.
The group also came out <a href="https://unidosus.org/press-releases/unidosus-condemns-us-senate-for-passing-president-trumps-cruel-costly-and-harmful-federal-budget-bill/">against</a> Trump&#8217;s budget bill, arguing that it will allow the administration to &#8220;turbocharge its chaotic, malicious and unlawful deportation machine.&#8221;
The group’s sister organization, UnidosUS Action, <a href="https://www.unidosusaf.org/pathtocitizenship">called</a> for illegal aliens to receive a pathway to citizenship in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. That group has raked in <a href="https://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/grants/past?filter_keyword=unidosus">half a million dollars</a> from the Open Society Foundations, with all of the money going to “support policy advocacy on immigration.”
UnidosUS told The Daily Wire that it has “consistently voiced support for bipartisan bills that offer immigrants the stability they deserve.&#8221;
&#8220;It’s why we welcome the Dignity Act, a genuine bipartisan effort that protects long-settled immigrants who contribute to our country from deportation while allowing employers to retain their workforce,&#8221; the group explained.
The American Immigration Council, which has received <a href="https://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/grants/past?filter_keyword=American+immigration+council+">nearly $2 million</a> from the Open Society Foundations and <a href="https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/taking-action-trump-first-100-days/">dubbed</a> Trump&#8217;s immigration agenda &#8220;cruel,&#8221; also appears to support the legislation, favorably showcasing it on its site.
“Members of Congress reintroduced what has sadly become an increasingly rare bit of legislation: an immigration reform bill aimed at addressing large-scale systematic problems with our immigration system,” the organization wrote in a <a href="https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/blog/legislators-immigration-reform-reintroduced-dignidad-act/">glowing review</a> of the bill, which called it “one of the most sweeping attempts to modify the immigration system that has been proposed in years.”
The organization has received <a href="https://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/grants/past?filter_keyword=American+immigration+council+">numerous grants</a> from Soros’s foundation, including funding “to support strategies that ensure legal protections for immigrants and demonstrate the value of immigrants to America,” “to develop advocacy strategies around federal immigration policy,” and to “support policy advocacy on immigration.”
The American Immigration Council did not respond to a request for comment.
While Salazar’s legislation has been celebrated by leftist organizations, conservative politicians and organizations have spoken out against it.
“Some of my colleagues in Congress want to reward illegal aliens with amnesty,” Rep. Tom Tiffany (R-WI) charged in a post on X in an apparent <a href="https://x.com/RepTiffany/status/1945944219438260265">reference</a> to Salazar’s effort to legalize illegal aliens. “No amnesty — only mass deportations.”
The Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) told The Daily Wire that it opposes the Dignity Act, calling it a “de facto amnesty.”
“‘A pathway to citizenship’ is just a more verbose term for amnesty. As for the non-DACA beneficiaries of this bill, being allowed to remain here legally indefinitely is still a de facto amnesty,” FAIR Media Director Ira Mehlman told The Daily Wire.
“The five-year requirement for eligibility seems to have been carefully chosen to predate the onset of the Biden administration. But, nevertheless, by FAIR&#8217;s estimates, there were some 15 million illegal aliens living in the U.S. prior to Biden taking office — which would mean that the bill would grant legal status to an enormous population of illegal aliens,” Mehlman added.
He added that the bill would almost certainly provide a way to give full citizenship to those granted renewable legal status under Salazar’s bill.
“There is also pretty much close to a 100% chance that within a few years, there would be an effort to put these millions of people with renewable status on ‘a pathway to citizenship’ as well,” Mehlman charged. “We would almost certainly hear the same arguments that are being made for granting DACA beneficiaries a full amnesty.”
Salazar did not respond to a request for comment.

The Trump administration announced sanctions against the leader of Tren de Aragua and other top lieutenants on Thursday amid a broader effort to choke off the transnational criminal organization’s access to cash.
The Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control targeted six leaders of the Venezuelan gang, which has been designated as a foreign terror organization by the Trump administration, including its leader, Hector Rusthenford Guerrero Flores. Also known as Niño Guerrero, he has led the group as it has evolved from a prison gang into a broader criminal entity with a presence in the United States.
“Today’s action highlights the critical role of leaders like Niño Guerrero and his lieutenants in Tren de Aragua’s efforts to increase its destabilizing influence throughout the region,” said Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
The sanctions require that any Tren de Aragua property or funds in the United States, or those controlled by American financial institutions, be frozen and reported to the Treasury, thereby restricting the flow of funds back into the hands of the criminal enterprise.
The Treasury notes that Niño Guerrero has been involved in criminal activity for two decades and has led the criminal group as it has become more influential. The State Department is currently offering a $5 million reward for information leading to the arrest of Guerrero.
The department also sanctioned Yohan Jose Romero, a “close lieutenant” of Guerrero, who the Trump administration says is “responsible for the group’s illegal mining efforts in Venezuela.”
“Johan Petrica provides Tren de Aragua with military-grade weapons used to control the streets of Venezuela and fight against Colombian guerrillas,” the Treasury Department notes.
​​Also sanctioned is Josue Angel Santana Pena, who “is alleged to be involved in homicide, extortion, bombings, terrorism, and theft,” and Niño Guerrero’s wife, Wendy Marbelys Rios Gomez, who the Treasury Department notes is involved in money laundering, terrorism, and terrorist financing.
The Trump administration also sanctioned Wilmer Jose Perez Castillo, who the Treasury Department said has carried out “murders of a policeman, a Venezuelan military official, and Venezuelan intelligence officials” on behalf of the organization.
Felix Anner Castillo Rondon, the leader of a Tren de Aragua cell operating in Chile, has also been sanctioned. His crew is implicated in a range of crimes, including homicides, human trafficking, sexual exploitation of women, narcotics trafficking, and money laundering.
“The Trump Administration will not allow Tren de Aragua to continue to terrorize our communities and harm innocent Americans. In line with President Trump’s mandate to Make America Safe Again, Treasury remains dedicated to dismantling Tren de Aragua and disrupting the group’s campaign of violence.”
The new sanctions come amid a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-treasury-official-reveals-how-the-trump-admin-is-choking-off-cartels-cash-flow?author=Spencer+Lindquist&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=undefined&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=EXCLUSIVE%3A+Treasury+Official+Lays+Out+How+Trump+Is+Choking+Off+Cash+Flow+To+Cartels">sweeping effort</a> by the Treasury Department to cut off cash flow to cartels and gangs in an attempt to eliminate the financial incentives that drive the criminal entities’ drug and human trafficking operations.
Members of the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trumps-treasury-dept-launches-sanctions-targeting-sinaloa-cartel">Sinaloa Cartel</a>, the Cartel de Noreste, and the Cartel de Jalisco Nueva Generacion have all been hit with Treasury sanctions since President Donald Trump took office in January.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is set to receive a massive influx of funding thanks to the passage of the One Big Beautiful Act, giving the agency a budget that exceeds every federal law enforcement agency, including the FBI.
“President Trump’s signing the One Big Beautiful Bill is a win for law and order and the safety and security of the American people,” Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem <a href="https://www.dhs.gov/news/2025/07/04/secretary-noem-commends-president-trump-and-one-big-beautiful-bill-signing-law">said</a>. “This $165 billion in funding will help the Department of Homeland Security and our brave law enforcement further deliver on President Trump’s mandate to arrest and deport criminal illegal aliens.”
That sum includes roughly $75 billion for ICE — additional funding on top of the agency&#8217;s baseline budget, which hovers around <a href="https://time.com/7299360/big-beautiful-bill-trump-ice-immigration/?utm_source=chatgpt.com">$10 billion</a> per year. That additional funding, which is earmarked for hiring agents, creating new detention space, and funding removal operations, translates to an annual funding of more than $25 billion per year through fiscal year 2029. The sum eclipses the $11.3 billion in <a href="https://www.fbi.gov/news/speeches-and-testimony/a-review-of-the-president-s-fiscal-year-2025-budget-request-for-the-federal-bureau-of-investigation">funding</a> requested by the FBI for fiscal year 2025.
The bill empowers ICE to drastically increase the number of agents on its payroll, putting it closer to its goal of 1 million deportations per year. The law enforcement agency currently has 20,000 agents and support personnel in 400 different offices across the country. With the new funding, another 10,000 could be hired, marking a drastic, 50% increase in agents and support personnel.
Just under <a href="https://www.axios.com/2025/07/03/immigration-spending-increases-trump-big-beautiful-bill">$30 billion</a> has been earmarked for hiring, training, and agent retention, as well as for the modernization of the agency’s vehicles.
The legislation also grants ICE a whopping <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/04/07/us/politics/trump-administration-immigrant-detention-facilities-services.html">$45 billion</a> to increase its illegal alien detention capacity over the next two years, a key component in the effort to deport millions of illegal aliens.
That funding will allow ICE to reach agreements with contractors who will construct detention facilities and provide security, medical care, and transportation as the agency aims to create an unprecedented number of detention spots for illegal aliens. The bill, according to the Department of Homeland Security, will allow ICE to secure 80,000 new detention beds and allow the federal agency to maintain an average daily population of 100,000 illegal aliens in detention at any given time.
The bill allocates another $14.4 billion to fund “removal transportation,” like deportation flights back to illegal aliens’ countries of origin or to willing “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-admin-secures-victory-in-scotus-ruling-enabling-more-deportations?author=Spencer+Lindquist&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=17&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=Trump+Admin+Secures+Victory+In+SCOTUS+Ruling+Enabling+More+Deportations">third countries</a>” that agree to accept deportees from the United States.
The legislation also aims to bolster border security, notably allocating $46.5 billion to complete the border wall. The effort marks a drastic shift from the previous administration, which <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/exclusive-biden-races-to-sell-off-border-wall-parts-before-trump-takes-office">auctioned off</a> pieces of the border wall for pennies on the dollar just after Trump won the election.
It also grants $3.2 billion for new technology along the border and another $2.7 billion for autonomous border surveillance tech. Customs and Border Protection will, like ICE, be granted funding to hire new agents. That money will allow the agency to hire 3,000 new Border Patrol agents as well as another 3,000 customs officers. Another $855 million will be used to modernize Customs and Border Protection&#8217;s vehicle fleet.

The Trump administration is charging an illegal alien business owner in Arizona for knowingly employing other illegal aliens in his food truck business.
Federal prosecutors hit illegal alien business owner 42-year-old Blademir Angulo Audeves with several crimes after Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) took him into custody in Phoenix early this month.
The Mexican national, is believed to have hired at least a dozen illegal aliens to work at his restaurant chain, Taqueria El Taco Loko. Every single one of his workers, federal authorities say, were in the country illegally.
He now <a href="https://www.breitbart.com/border/2025/07/15/trump-admin-cracks-down-on-employers-hiring-illegal-aliens-in-arizona/">faces</a> several federal charges, including the Harboring of an Illegal Alien, Knowingly Employing Unauthorized Aliens, Improper Entry by an Alien, and Alien in Possession of a Firearm.

Angulo Audeves first entered the United States illegally in 2011 and voluntarily left the country in May of 2021 after receiving departure orders, but returned just months later in August of the same year.
Authorities also raided the home of Angulo Audeves, with prosecutors saying that the illegal alien was found to be in possession of three firearms and hundreds of rounds of ammunition, violating federal law.
Court documents indicate, according to <a href="https://www.azfamily.com/2025/07/12/phoenix-taco-shop-owner-accused-harboring-employing-illegal-migrants/">one report</a>, that the Mexican illegal alien paid the smuggling costs for some of his employees, fronting $12,000 a piece to traffic the illegal alien workers into the United States with the expectation that they would pay him back.
The case is not the only time that federal authorities under the Trump administration have arrested illegal alien workers and their employers. ICE and HSI <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/ice-and-homeland-security-busts-8-illegal-aliens-and-the-business-owners-they-say-harbored-them">arrested</a> eight illegal aliens who worked at a bakery on the border in Texas in February. The bakery’s two owners were also apprehended and charged with felonies, with federal authorities accusing them of harboring illegal aliens.
