Now Illegal Aliens Are Getting Obamaphones

Anyone who says immigration is not the most important issue in the 2016 presidential election, is clearly misguided.

The government is providing some illegal immigrant families with smartphones to temporarily use as they travel throughout the United States to their “destination” cities.

GEO Care, a federal contractor, has started loaning smartphones to certain illegal immigrant families enrolled in Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Family Case Management Program.

The FCMP is an alternative to detention that pairs illegal immigrants with social workers who help them get their footing in cities across the U.S. — including assisting the new arrivals with accessing housing, education, medical services and legal assistance — while they await immigration hearings.

The Obama administration has billed the program as a way to ensure the illegal immigrant families show up for their immigration hearings.
