While in Congress, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) co-sponsored a “DREAM Act” amnesty that would have allowed millions of illegal aliens to become naturalized American citizens. Federal analysis found that the amnesty would have increased spending on programs like Social Security and Medicare.
In 2017, while a member of Congress, Walz joined hundreds of House Democrats as well as a handful of House Republicans in co-sponsoring the DREAM Act of 2017. The bill sought to ensure that over three million illegal aliens could eventually secure green cards and obtain citizenship.
Months after the bill was introduced, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) issued a report revealing that the DREAM Act Walz co-sponsored would have cost American taxpayers tens of billions of dollars.
