Liberal group lands $171M gov't contract that could reach $1B to help illegal immigrants avoid deportation
Fox News
The Vera Institute of Justice, a left-wing group, secured a $171 million government contract to provide assistant to unaccompanied minors amid an escalating border crisis.
The arrangement lasts until March 2023 but can reach as high as $983 million if renewed until March 2027, the agreement shows. This appears to be the largest federal contract Vera has secured for immigration-related services for any single year dating back to the mid-2000s.
The lofty nine-figure contract came amid an escalating border crisis that saw more than 239,000 migrant encounters in May alone -- a historic high. There were 14,699 encounters of unaccompanied minors in May, an increase from the 12,180 encountered in April and slightly higher than the 14,052 encountered in May 2021.
