Another goody:
Henry Rodgers of the Daily Caller reports that Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL), Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), and Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) are lobbying fellow Democrats to sign onto a letter to urge President Joe Biden to provide Temporary Protected Status (TPS) and Deferred Enforced Departure (DED) to Palestinians in the U.S.
Both TPS and DED would ensure that Palestinians cannot be deported from the U.S.

All of them are wearing new clothes and hardly any baggage. I wish those goodie two shoes organizations would stop helping them.
Thank you tulsa for taking one for the team.
Just glad the city of shawnee hasn’t done this already.

Maybe Gov. Abbot could start sending some buses to Tulsa!
My thoughts precisely!!
Bynum and his ilk recently took a junket/tour of Austin Texas to get ideas and develop plans how to turn Tulsa into Austin North…
This is the start.
This is the start.
Time to move?As many cities have begun to turn away from being “welcoming” or “sanctuary” cities, the City of Tulsa, Oklahoma, seems to be heading in the opposite direction.
Activists for migrants were celebrating this week by designating Tulsa as its newest “Welcoming City.” The designation comes after Mayor G.T. Bynum and members of the city council enacted several measures since September to make the city a more desirable destination for illegal migrants.
The group Welcoming America has helped cities across America create, promote, and guide efforts to create conditions better for migrants in American cities.
One of the efforts by Tulsa was the Asian Affairs Commission enacted by Mayor Bynum in September, the group says. The new commission will focus on workforce and economic development, education, and civic engagement, according to KOSU.
During his State of the City address on November 2, Bynum also announced that the city hired an immigrant services liaison to connect immigrants with jobs in Tulsa.
“The work of Catholic Charities, the YWCA, B’nai Emunah Synagogue and so many others led President Biden’s top aid for refugee resettlement to come to Tulsa to see how we were handling it, because he wanted to use us as a model for other cities around the country,” Bynum said during his address.
The initiatives formed part of Bynum’s campaign for mayor, as well. On his website, Bynum promised to launch “the New Tulsans Initiative, which is focused on making Tulsa a beacon of freedom and opportunity for immigrants all around the world.”
Tulsa is now one of 18 cities and counties that Welcoming America has lavished with its “Welcoming City” designation.
Still, illegals make up but a small part of Oklahoma’s population. According to the American Immigration Council, in 2018 there were only 236,882 immigrants of all sorts in the state, making up just six percent of the population. In 2016 the group estimated there were 85,000 undocumented aliens. And according to the Migration Policy Institute, there were still only 90,000 by 2019.
Meanwhile, the City of New York alone has seen a flood of 110,000 illegals since last spring. While Chicago has suffered with 15,000.
Unlike in Tulsa, a place that seems safely distanced from wave after wave of illegal migration, cities such as New York and Chicago are knee deep in political arguments over eliminating sanctuary city policies that have made them a target.
A recent poll in Chicago, for instance, found that 46 percent of voters want to put an end to sanctuary city policies. And the aldermen in city hall have been fighting over the issue.
In New York, a growing number of elected officials are beginning to turn against sanctuary policies, saying that the policies are causing havoc in the Empire State.
Tulsa, Oklahoma, Becomes State's First 'Welcoming City'
As many cities have begun to turn away from "sanctuary" citiy policies, the City of Tulsa, OK, seems to be heading in the other direction.
Can't wait for the Gov. solution to housing for these people. This many people will require something pretty drastic. On top of the credit cards for life. This will never go away. Gotta wonder how these illegals are getting their information or marching orders in their countries. It must be convincing to just pack up and start walking thru Mexico with a back pack. Who is the agency pursuing them and how are they doing it?
