The Center to Advance Security in America (CASA) has filed a federal lawsuit to force the release of records detailing how billions in taxpayer dollars were funneled to non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to resettle migrants across the United States during Joe Biden’s tenure according to an exclusive report from Breitbart News.
CASA filed the suit in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, seeking Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) documents from Fiscal Years 2023 and 2024. These records would show which NGOs received federal grants, how much money they obtained, and precisely what services they provided to migrants after they were apprehended at the southern border.
CASA: “Maximum Transparency” Needed on Billions Spent
“CASA filed this lawsuit to provide maximum transparency to the Biden administration’s outrageous giveaway of millions of taxpayer dollars to non-governmental organizations that facilitated illegal immigration,” CASA Director James Fitzpatrick told Breitbart News.
According to CASA executives, NGOs received $6.4 billion in taxpayer funding in Fiscal Year 2022 alone, money that paid for housing, schooling, medical treatment, travel, and legal services for migrants entering the country.
The lawsuit argues that disclosing the full list of recipients and expenditures is squarely in the public interest:
“The release of these documents is in the public interest because it will provide increased transparency to understand the [HHS’s] decisions and communications regarding federal funds provided to non-governmental entities.”
Billions Funneled to NGOs and Sanctuary Jurisdictions
Throughout Biden’s four years in office, reporting has documented the administration’s heavy reliance on NGOs — many of which openly support sanctuary policies — to manage the massive influx of migrants crossing the American border.
These nonprofits became central hubs in migrant-processing pipelines, arranging travel, temporary housing, long-term resettlement, and offering legal and social-services support that critics argue functioned as incentives encouraging more illegal immigration.
Fitzpatrick said the American people have a right to see exactly which groups were involved and how the money was spent.
“The American public deserves to know every organization that received these funds so they can see for themselves the extremes the Biden administration went to to ensure government money went to as many organizations as possible who facilitated, promoted, and furthered Biden’s pursuit for a reckless open border.”
Legal Battle Begins in Washington
The case, CASA v. HHS, is now underway in federal court. If successful, the lawsuit could force the HHS to disclose internal communications and financial records detailing the federal government’s sprawling network of NGO partnerships.
Such disclosures could illuminate one of the least transparent components of federal immigration operations — how billions in public funds quietly flowed to private organizations that became the backbone of Biden’s border and resettlement policy.
CASA has signaled that it intends to continue investigating the extent of government-NGO coordination and pressuring federal agencies to turn over records the group says should have been public from the start.
