Formerly Homeless Veteran Says Biden Administration is ‘Turning Their Back’ on Americans After Paying to House Migrants in Hotels

David Hathcock, a formerly homeless veteran, blasted the Biden administration for designating $86.9 million toward hotel rooms to house illegal immigrants crossing the border while brave American veterans desperately need help.

“‘What I don’t understand is why we can allow our greatest heroes, our American veterans that have gone to fight for this country, that have gone and put their lives on the line and then they come back home and have nowhere to go,’ Hathcock told ‘Fox & Friends First’ on Tuesday. ‘And this administration is putting more money into people that have never contributed to this society and to me that is very heartbreaking.’” – Fox News

Hathcock, who recovered from a drug addiction and went on to become a nurse at the VA, knows firsthand how many American veterans are struggling.

“‘Being a homeless veteran myself, I needed all the help I could get,” Hathcock said. – Fox News

He argued the Biden administration has a long way to go when it comes to helping veterans and should prioritize them over people who break American laws by entering the country illegally.

“‘We’re giving $86 million to people that have never contributed to this society and yet, we let the people that have given the most be homeless,’ he continued. ‘That shows a lot that we need to do more.’” – Fox News

The Biden administration made this misguided decision after a surge of migrants crossed the southern border as a result of Biden’s open border policies.

Now, American taxpayers are footing the bill.

Whitney Robertson, Deputy Press Secretary for America Rising PAC: “Joe Biden’s decision to prioritize illegal immigrants over those who have bravely served our country is beyond the pale. This taxpayer money should be used to support our heroic veterans, not prop up Joe Biden’s radical immigration agenda.”
