Corrupt, anti-American groups such as the Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) received millions in taxpayer money, and used it to help fuel violent protests against ICE for trying to secure our borders and protect American citizens. Meanwhile, groups that were calling attention to the dangers of jihad violence and Sharia oppression of women were demonized and stigmatized by the discredited Southern Poverty Law Center, and had to struggle every day simply to survive. The left has been doing everything it could to destroy America for many years now.

“Anti-ICE Group Received Millions From Taxpayers In A Year — Here’s What We Got In Return”

by Hudson Crozier, Daily Caller News Foundation, April 28, 2026:

A pro-illegal immigrant group received more than $8.7 million from taxpayers in the year that it helped spark destructive protests, but despite outcry and probes from Washington, it faces no consequences.

The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights (CHIRLA) reported the government grants in its latest tax filing covering July 2024 through June 2025, the month that Los Angeles, California, was set ablaze by anti-deportation rioters. The chaos kicked off in June 2025 after CHIRLA created an anti-ICE network that led to a union leader’s arrest and encouraged supporters to arrive at a federal building for a rally that turned violent, the Daily Caller News Foundation previously reported. CHIRLA defended the mob as rioting against deportations spread across central California for days and caused damages somewhere between $32 million and $1 billion, according to local and federal agencies.

House and Senate lawmakers responded by announcing investigations into CHIRLA that have produced no findings or legislative reforms as leftists use the tax-exempt nonprofit system to fund radical causes. The House Judiciary Committee and Republican Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri sent CHIRLA letters in June demanding records of its finances and internal communications.

There have been no reports of CHIRLA handing over the information, and lawmakers have announced no further action. The House Judiciary Committee did not threaten a subpoena if CHIRLA ignored its requests, while Hawley threatened “potential referral for criminal investigation.” The IRS and First Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli did not respond to the requests for comment about a probe they announced last year into the anti-ICE riots, while the FBI’s Los Angeles office declined to comment.

CHIRLA’s $8,726,683 from taxpayers in fiscal year 2024 made up 35% of its total revenue, according to its records. CHIRLA has received more than $80.6 million in government grants since former President Joe Biden took office and opened the U.S. border to historic illegal immigration, tax filings show.

The nonprofit became a fixture in the U.S. immigration system after the Obama administration’s Board of Immigration Appeals tapped the group to provide immigration services in 2011. CHIRLA “filed thousands of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival (DACA) initial and renewal applications” and gave thousands of migrants services such as “adjustment of status, U-Visa, deportation defense” and fighting for “Temporary Protected Status” from deportation since 2012, the group wrote. CHIRLA and other organizations sued the Trump administration in March for halting Biden-era federal grants for citizen naturalization programs, but district and appeals judges have upheld the move, court records show….
