We know in 2021 The Immigration Project was 99.95% funded by tax dollars: https://blnnews.com/2024/02/12/the-immigration-project-you-dont-know/
Using the new Benjamin Chat Box on OpenTheBooks.com I searched under “Vendors” for payments made to them. Try it, incredibly easy to use! Results are emailed to you after it searches multiple databases.
In 2022 ISU gave them $500.00
We already knew in 2021 the State of Illinois gave them $1,308,080.
Funding dropped in 2022 to $584,357. In 2023 they were up some to $848,677.
The 2022 and 2023 tax returns aren’t on-line yet. Budgeting must be a nightmare when government funding makes huge shifts like this.
Think the leftists who want open borders are making up the difference with their own money?
I don’t either.
Thanks for this Diane! Gonna Make Good use out of it!!
The Immigration Project is a group leftist attorneys on their first job out of law school. Years ago, they had a meeting with Regional Planning in an effort to set the stage to bring in more illegals on work visas. At that time, the foreign-born head of the Commission was giddy at the prospect and included their input on updating regional and transportation plan.updates. Several of the lawyers have foreign backgrounds themselves.
Winder if they all went timi the Pritzker law school- leftist cronies with guaranteed jobs at taxpayer expense
They recently received a $2M grant.
From who and when?
