The Government Is Spending $22 Million To Help Illegal Immigrants Get COVID Vaccines
A leftwing organization is set to receive more than $22 million from the United States government for a campaign that encouraged illegal aliens to receive the COVID-19 vaccination, The Daily Wire has learned.
Nearly $19 million of the $22.4 million grant from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has already been paid out to UnidosUS to support the leftwing non-profit’s efforts to expand vaccination with a focus on “vulnerable populations” within the Latino community, including illegal aliens.
The grant, dispersed through the Center for Disease Control, funds UnidosUS’s campaign to “increase awareness, education, and promotion of the COVID-19 vaccine among Latinos, including vulnerable populations, E.G. essential workers and undocumented individuals.” The grant began in February 2021 and is set to conclude at the end of January 2026.
UnidosUS, a 501(c)(3) organization that describes itself as the nation’s largest Hispanic civil rights and advocacy organization, appears to have used the funding to create the “Esperanza Hope for All Adult Vaccine Access Program,” which it credits to the CDC funding.
“Since its inception in 2021, Esperanza Hope for All … has been at the forefront of mitigating the health, economic and educational impacts of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic on Latino communities,” a program factsheet reads.
A 2021 toolkit promoting the program includes question-and-answer flashcards, including one that asks, “Can I get a COVID-19 vaccine if I am undocumented?”
