You Vote: Do you approve of the continuation of paying billions of dollars to 'charities?'

President Joe Biden’s border policies were a boon for private religious charities, especially those associated with the Catholic Church. They collectively received billions of dollars in grant money while helping house and resettle migrants, while a federal watchdog warned about mismanaged funds and a potential for fraud. 

Catholic Charities USA, comprised of 168 local member agencies across the United States, is one of the largest private recipients of government funding under several immigration-related programs that critics have said allowed the Biden administration to relocate and shelter migrants in the United States. 

According to data from USAspending.gov, Catholic Charities branches across the United States collected over $2 billion in federal grants over the last four years of the Biden administration.
