How many illegal aliens? Attention Republican Georgia legislators: We are quantifying what most of you are ignoring on illegal immigration

January 12, 2024 By D.A. King

We note that a congressional district is about 760,000 people (illegal aliens included in the count).

On illegal aliens released into the U.S. since January, 2021 – testimony to the House Committee on the Judiciary, Jan 11, 2024. (“The Cost of Illegal Immigration to Taxpayers” – Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement Subcommittee of the House Judiciary Committee hearing entitled “The Impact of Illegal Immigration on Social Services”)

“The current surge of illegal immigration is unprecedented. Some 2.7 million inadmissible aliens have been released into the country by the administration since January 2021. There have also been 1.5 million “got-aways” — individuals observed entering illegally but not stopped. Visa overstays also seem to have hit a record in FY 2022.”

2.7 released + 1.5 million got away = 4.2 million. Please add the below.

Data on visa overstays from DHS:

“The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has quietly published an overdue overstay report showing that more than 850,000 foreign visitors overstayed their authorized stay in FY2022, which is probably a record high.”

Georgia: Here is a 2016 estimate on the number of illegal aliens living in Georgia from Pew Research – 400,000.

By now it is likely over 500,000.

Dual Enrollment: “If a student does not provide a SSN, then GAfutures automatically assigns a nine-digit number (typically beginning with 777)”

January 9, 2024 By D.A. King

GAfutures numbers have nine digits – just like an SSN.

Email response forwarded here from UNG, Jan 9, 2024.

Thank you for reaching out. If a student does not provide a SSN, then GAfutures automatically assigns a nine-digit number (typically beginning with 777).

Please let me know if you have any additional questions.

Kindest,

My friend is undocumented and wants to know about the Dual Enrollment program.
As she has no SSN we see she can get a GA Futures number when she fills out the application for DE. Please tell us how many digits are in the GAFutures numbers? Are they spaced like Social Security numbers, please?
Thank you if you can help us understand.

Attention GA legislators: How to avoid dismantling verification of lawful presence in the 2024 legislative session

January 6, 2024 By D.A. King

The last line of the below Georgia law should be included in 2024 bills intended to make it easier to obtain an occupational and/or professional license.

O.C.G.A. § 43-1-35

“(g) Nothing contained in this Code section shall be construed to invalidate, override, or amend any licensing compact entered into by the State of Georgia or to permit the issuance of a license without verification under Code Section 50-36-1.“

Georgia’s pending “School Choice!” bill excludes illegal alien students – here’s how

January 3, 2024 By D.A. King

SB 233 School choice legislation excludes illegal alien students — but not “parents.”

Click here to see the entire bill current as of today : LC 49 1473S

Note the LC # and line numbers will change if the language is adjusted. We predict exactly that.

For folks not accustomed to dealing with legislation, see line 72: “(a) A student shall qualify for a promise scholarship account under this chapter if:”

Then go down to lines 82 & 83: “The student does not meet any of the ineligibility criteria provided for in subsection (b) of Code Section 20-3-519.1; (This code section defines eligibility for scholarships and grants and yes, they used a double negative).

What does subsection (b) say about ineligibility?

This:(b) A student is ineligible for any scholarship or grant described in this part if the student:

* (1) Is not a United States citizen or a permanent resident alien who meets the definition of an eligible noncitizen under federal Title IV requirements;

(2) Has not complied with United States Selective Service System requirements for registration, if such requirements are applicable to the student;

(3) Is in default on a federal Title IV educational loan or a State of Georgia educational loan, provided that a student who is otherwise eligible and has fully repaid the defaulted loan will be eligible to obtain a scholarship or grant for future academic terms but not retroactively;

(4) Owes a refund on a federal Title IV student financial aid program or a Georgia student financial aid program, provided that a student who is otherwise eligible and has fully paid the refund owed will be eligible to obtain a scholarship or grant for future academic terms but not retroactively;

(5) Has been convicted of a felony offense involving marijuana, a controlled substance, or a dangerous drug as set out in Code Section 20-1-23 or 20-1-24 of the “Drug-free Postsecondary Education Act of 1990,” provided that such ineligibility extends from the date of conviction to the completion of the next academic term;

(6) Is incarcerated; or

(7) Does not meet each qualification listed in the Code section relating to the relevant scholarship or grant and applicable to the student.

There is along and quite interesting story from last year about this time behind all this. I’ll save it for after the 2024 session.

Media request sent to the GSFC Re: Dual Enrollment – Dec. 2023

December 29, 2023 By D.A. King

The below request for comment was sent to the Georgia Student Finance Commission at 7:13 PM on Dec. 27, 2023. I did not receive a reply.

GSFC

I am in hopes that your office can offer a comment or direction.

I am writing an educational opinion column focused on Georgia’s Dual Enrollment program as related to illegal immigration for James Magazine Online with a deadline of 1:00 PM Thursday, Dec. 28.

After studying state law and in addition to an open records request for which I received a response from GSFC, I have done extensive research on the DE program and application process and cannot find any reference to any exclusion of illegal immigrant students from the taxpayer-funded benefit of attending public college classes at no cost to the student’s family. I see no reference to any verification device or process for checking legal immigration status of either the student or the parent/guardian who is required to sign the Parent Participation Agreement.

I want to insure accuracy and balance my write-up and am in hopes that you can offer some detail I may have overlooked or any comment you want included.

I am a student of the 1986 Plyler v Doe Supreme Court decision and am very familiar with the mandates therein.

For inclusion in the report please reply by my deadline?

Thank you,

D.A. King

VIA U.S. REGULAR MAIL & E-MAIL

Leroy Chapman, Jr., Editor in Chief THE ATLANTA JOURNAL-CONSTITUTION 223 Perimeter Center Pkwy NE Atlanta, Georgia 30346

Re: Demand for Retraction and Apology

Dear Mr. Chapman, Jr.:

I write on behalf of my client, the Dustin Inman Society (DIS), to demand an immediate retraction and apology for the defamatory statements published in your October 7, 2024, article titled “Democrats in this Georgia district are backing a write-in candidate” by Tia Mitchell.

Through use of internet links, the AJC article wrongfully characterizes the Dustin Inman Society as a “Marietta-based anti-immigration hate group.” This characterization is false, defamatory, and published with actual malice. The Dustin Inman Society pushes for secure borders, is not “anti-immigration” and its proprietors do not hate anyone. Rather, DIS advocates for enforcement of U.S. immigration laws and actively opposes unlawful immigration. This distinction is crucial and well-known to staff at your publication.

I paste the offending paragraph from the AJC story:

“A search of activity under her birth name, Karen Sacandy, which Stamper legally changed in 2019, showed that she previously was aligned with a Marietta-based anti-immigration hate group. The group’s website often linked to Sacandy’s activities, like a letter seeking information about the state’s Immigration Enforcement Review Board and a copy of a letter to the editor supporting legislation to prevent immigrants claiming asylum from obtaining driver’s licenses.”

HEMMER WESSELS MCMURTRY PLLC
250 Grandview Drive, Suite 500, Ft. Mitchell, KY 41017 ● Phone 859.344.1188 ● Fax 859.578.3869

October 18, 2024 Page 2

We note the AJC informs readers that the Dustin Inman Society “often” linked to Karen Sacandy/Kate Stamper activities — but produces only two occasions.

Your story, for which DIS founder and president D.A. King was not contacted, informs readers that Sacandy/Stamper “was aligned” with the Dustin Inman Society. We note that polls show that a majority of Americans oppose the federal offense of illegal immigration. Since the letter posted on the DIS site was a published missive to the editor at the Cherokee Tribune, we must ask: does this make that newspaper a “Cherokee County-based anti-immigration hate group”?

Your characterization demonstrates a reckless and vindictive disregard for the truth, rising to the level of actual malice as defined in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan. Actual malice in defamation law refers to publication of a statement with knowledge that it is false or with reckless disregard of whether it is false or not. Your repeated mischaracterization of the Dustin Inman Society, despite having been corrected on numerous occasions, clearly meets this standard.

The Dustin Inman Society’s position on immigration is clear and public:

1. It supports sustainable levels of legal immigration through established channels.

2. It opposes unlawful immigration due to various societal concerns, including: – Strain on public resources and services
– Potential and real public safety issues
– Economic impacts on low-wage American workers and America’s poor

– Challenges to the rule of law

3. The Dustin Inman Society defends legal immigrants when media attempt to blur the difference between them and illegal aliens.

Moreover, the Dustin Inman Society’s board includes lawful immigrants who have navigated the proper channels for authorized immigration. This fact alone should dispel any notion that the organization is “anti-immigration.” As he has informed you multiple times over much of the last two decades, D.A. King’s sister is a real, legal immigrant.

While we acknowledge that the Southern Poverty Law Center has designated the Dustin Inman Society as an “anti-immigrant hate group that denigrates all immigrants,” your article presents the “anti-immigration hate group” characterization as the Atlanta Journal Constitution’s independent assessment and statement of fact.

This smear is not only demonstrably false and ignores Mr. King’s many communications to you advising you of the truth, but also demonstrates an exceedingly unprofessional failure to fact-check and verify information before publication.

We demand that the Atlanta Journal Constitution:

October 18, 2024 Page 3

1. Immediately publicly retract the defaming statement in the October 7, 2024, article.

2. Publish a prominent apology, equal in visibility and placement to the original defamatory article.

3. Cease and desist from further defamatory characterizations of the Dustin Inman Society.

Failure to comply with these demands may result in further legal action. We expect your prompt attention to this matter and await your timely response.

Sincerely,

Todd V. McMurtry
