Davich: Would Merrillville residents reject an ICE detention center?
Greg Serbon
How are foreigners illegally in our country residents? We have immigration laws to protect our workforce, wages, health and keeping criminals and terrorist out of our country. The Biden administration used our tax dollars to import 10 million unvetted fraudulent asylum seekers. We need more detention space to hold those illegally in our country until their court date and deportation.The media has been less then truthful in reporting on the issue of illegal immigration. They mislead us on the cost of social services and crime these foreigners bring with them. With the proper information on the issue I'll bet the American citizens of Merrillville would support a detention center.https://cis.org/Arthur/Immigration-Court-NoShows-Soar-FY-2024https://cis.org/Report/Welfare-Use-Immigrants-and-USBorn-2022https://cis.org/Richwine/States-Must-Pay-Health-and-Education-Benefits-Illegal-Immigrant-FamiliesIndiana has 93,000 English Language Learners in our public schools. We pay $12,000 per student to educate one student. Depending on the understanding of the English language these students cost the Indiana taxpayer 20 to 40 % more to educate.We should NOT be on the hook to educate foreign students here illegally. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=ED6601942021-2024 Immigration surge cost to taxpayers.https://www.cbo.gov/publication/61464

Indiana will pause adding providers to Medicaid program, cites fraud potential

How about cracking down on CPSBraun? Too many stories lately about them failing to do their jobs. That’s also waste as well. Oh wait, I forgot in Magiana, once a child is born, the state no longer cares about them

Northwest Indiana unions vow to oppose politicians who don't back Bears stadium food tax
mike3775
So the unions hope to ensure public financing support by inspiring Northwest Indiana elected leaders to support the public financing aspect of the Hoosier stadium plan. It's that, the unions say, or expect political opposition come election season.——So are the u ions going to pay for my higher property taxes? Are the unions going to pay the additional taxes I have to pay in order for a billionaire team owner to get tax breaks? If the unions say no to both, guess what, kiss my behind unions. Any politician that wants to raise my taxes for a billionaire to not pay any, gets no vote from me. This right here folks, is why unions are so despised by many, they only care about themselves and no one else
