The Ole Dog!
At least four Texas nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) operating on the U.S. southern border have come under scrutiny from Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton for their role in aiding illegal immigrants in recent months.
The latest action involves petitions filed by the attorney general’s office to depose officials at Catholic Charities of the Rio Grande Valley (CCRGV) and Team Brownsville Inc.
The attorney general’s office could shut down the NGOs if it can prove they broke the law.
Earlier this month, a judge in El Paso, Texas, dismissed Mr. Paxton’s lawsuit seeking to close Annunciation House, a Catholic NGO, over allegations that it was facilitating illegal immigration.
Mr. Paxton’s office contends that it is unlawful to “encourage or induce” a person to enter or remain in the United States illegally and that concealing, harboring, or shielding a person from detection is also a violation of federal law.
In December 2022, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott called for an investigation into whether NGOs may have planned and assisted illegal border crossings on both sides of the Texas–Mexico border.
NGOs traditionally have offered humanitarian aid to illegal aliens, but Mr. Abbott and other Republicans have questioned whether some organizations have crossed the line into “unlawfully orchestrating” border crossings.
Also in 2022, Rep. Lance Gooden (R-Texas) introduced the Stop Federal Funding for Human Trafficking and Smuggling Act “to defund U.S. non-profit organizations that are complicit in human smuggling and exacerbate the border crisis,” which was noted in the state’s court documents surrounding its probe of NGOs.
In a letter to Mr. Paxton, the governor highlighted the need for Texas to respond to the border crisis, for which he blamed the Biden administration.
Since 2021, some 10 million immigrants from around the world have entered the United States illegally. The Biden administration repealed Trump-era policies that curtailed illegal immigration, such as “Remain in Mexico,” which required asylum-seekers to stay in Mexico during immigration proceedings.
Many Democrats have said they believe immigration is positive for the United States economy and that it’s a human right.
“We need immigrants in this country,” Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) said in January during a House Judiciary Subcommittee hearing on immigration.
He said vegetables “would rot in the ground if they weren’t being picked by immigrants, illegal immigrants.”
“The fact is the birth rate in this country is way below replacement level,” Mr. Nadler said.
On July 17, attorneys for Catholic Charities in South Texas asked a court to block the state’s deposition request, calling it a “fishing expedition into a pond where no one has ever seen a fish.”
David Garza, a Brownsville attorney representing CCRGV, said the state failed to prove a deposition was necessary, according to court documents obtained by The Epoch Times.
“The Attorney General’s investigation of CCRGV is based solely on CCRGV’s religiously motivated provision of charitable services to asylum seekers, which do not violate any law,” he wrote.
The state’s petition lacks any evidence that would justify a deposition, according to Mr. Garza.
CCRGV is one of the more prominent NGOs operating on the Texas border. During surges in unlawful crossings, it provides shelter and food for up to 2,000 people a day.
In May, Sister Norma Pimentel, executive director of CCRGV, gave a sworn statement in hopes of avoiding a formal deposition.
The NGO’s Humanitarian Respite Center in McAllen is for illegal immigrants released by Border Patrol or Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents, she stated.
CCRGV contacts the sponsors of the illegal immigrants to arrange travel to their final destination, she said.
“While they wait for their bus or flight tickets to be purchased by their sponsor, asylum seekers are provided with warm meals, water, warm shower, and medical care if needed,” she wrote.
Security and staff are paid through grants from the federal government’s Emergency Food and Shelter Program, which is administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, according to the statement.
CCRGV attorneys said a deposition was not needed because the group already had turned over more than 100 pages of documents to state investigators.
