The Refugee and Migrant Needs Analysis chart with annual cost expectations.
On Thursday night, Todd Bensman from the Center for Immigration Studies, joined Laura Ingraham to explain how the US government is still spending billions of dollars assisting illegal aliens from Central and South America on their trek to the US southern border.
According to Bensman, billions of dollars—mostly sourced from U.S. taxpayers—have been funneled into the hands of over 200 United Nations agencies and numerous non-governmental organizations.
These entities have been instrumental in orchestrating the movement of millions of migrants towards the U.S. southern border.
The spending plan for the upcoming years is already set, with a staggering $1.4 billion earmarked for 2025 to assist approximately 2.3 million foreign nationals across 17 Latin American countries.
Bensman explained the longstanding partnership between the Biden-Harris State Department and a network comprising 230 NGOs and 15 UN agencies. This coalition has spent at least $6 billion over the past four to five years to support migrants en route to the U.S. border.
Despite the political shift marked by Trump’s election, these organizations are poised to continue their financial aid, signaling a sustained push towards the U.S. border, potentially to pressure the new administration.
Laura Ingraham: According to Todd Bensman at the Center for Immigration Studies, the UN and NGOs, non-governmental organizations, have directed billions of mostly US US tax dollars into supporting millions of illegal Southern border trips. The large conglomerate made up of more than 200 UN agencies and NGOs already has an idea of how they want to spend your cash for this year. Check it out.
They want to spend $1. 4 billion to support 2. 3 million foreign nationals traveling to the United States through 17 Latin American countries. Joining me now is Todd Benzman, Senior National Security Fellow for the CIS. Todd, people watching this are going, what is this NGO-UN collaboration and how does it involve us? Really quickly explain it.
Todd Bensman: This has been going on for four or five years straight now, at least $6 billion, a very close collaborative partnership between the Biden-Harris State Department and those 230 NGOs and 15 UN agencies to send hundreds of millions of US tax dollars to migrants on the trail, helping to sustain them in their northward track to the United States border, they know exactly what they’re doing.
The odd thing is that even though they know that Donald Trump won, they still are putting together a $1. 4 billion package for 2025 and another billion-dollar package for 2026, which tells me that even though the numbers might be low, they definitely want to keep the pressure up and on the Southern border, maybe to induce a failure, do something. But they’re definitely planning to be That’s a big business.
Laura Ingraham: Todd, let me understand this. This is essentially making life easier for those who are trying to make the trip up to the border, correct? What groups are we talking about here? Is this Catholic Relief Services? Is this the Lutheran Church? Or other more radical immigration groups? Give me some names.
Todd Bensman: All the major religious groups are represented here. You’ve got HIAS, you’ve got Caritas, you’ve got the Lutherans, you’ve got the Seventh Day Adventists, you’ve got international relief agencies, the Red Cross. There’s 230 of them, and they’re all listed in the RMRP online. That’s their budget document. You can go look it up.
They’re all there and how much money they’re going to spend. But the majority of that cash that they’re getting is coming directly from the US State Department. That is a close collaboration.
I know the Trump administration, brand new, is very busy right now, but they shouldn’t forget to turn the spigots off if they want to shut that down, down there, because they are in weigh stations from South America all the way through Central America all the way up into Northern Mexico in a big way.

Here is a listing of the groups that are funding the illegal migration into the US. This listing is from the 2024 RMRP document.
The biggest funders are the UN groups like UNHCR and the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
Todd Bensman says the US State Department is also a major funder for the illegal migration invasion at the U.S. southern border. This needs to be corrected immediately.
