In September, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/09\/30\/49-republicans-help-democrats-pass-billions-in-welfare-drivers-licenses-for-95k-afghans-brought-to-u-s\/\">49 House<\/a> and Senate Republicans helped give Biden $6.4 billion to resettle an endless number of Afghans across the U.S.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Earlier this month, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/12\/03\/the-list-19-senate-republicans-give-biden-over-13b-to-resettle-unlimited-flow-of-afghans-across-their-states\/\">19 Senate Republicans<\/a> and Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) joined Democrats to throw more taxpayer money at Biden\u2019s Afghan resettlement \u2014 providing him with an additional $7 billion.<\/p>\n<p>Along with those resettled across American communities, the Biden administration continues temporarily housing about 22,500 Afghans at U.S. military bases that they have transformed into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/12\/05\/ny-times-bidens-refugee-camp-larger-half-towns-new-jersey\/\">refugee camps<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Those bases include&nbsp;Camp Atterbury in Indiana; Fort Dix in New Jersey; Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico, Fort Pickett in Virginia; and Fort McCoy in Wisconsin. Afghans, while still living on the bases, can begin applying for work permits.<\/p>\n<p>In total, the Biden administration has brought more than 75,000 Afghans to the U.S. in just a matter of a little more than four months. Most are arriving on humanitarian parole, a visa-less category for anyone claiming to be facing persecution, while few are Special Immigrant Visa (SIV) holders.<\/p>\n<p>Partnering with Biden, a non-governmental organization (NGO) \u2014&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/politics\/2021\/10\/09\/clinton-bush-obama-biden-working-closely-to-resettle-afghans-across-u-s\/\">backed by<\/a>&nbsp;former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W.

Within five years, an estimated 16 percent of all refugees admitted will need housing assistance paid for by taxpayers.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>John Binder is a reporter for Breitbart News.
