Taxpayer-Funded Immigration Group Operates ‘Political Power Project’ to ‘Build a Voter Base From Scratch’

The Coalition for Humane Immigrant Rights, a Los Angeles-based immigration nonprofit that receives millions in government funding, is accused of establishing an immigration-to-elections pipeline across three entities, according to one state watchdog. CHIRLA maintains the entities are separate.

A CHIRLA organization in Mexico trains migrants planning to come to the U.S., while CHIRLA provides legal and naturalization services to immigrants in California, and its action arm endorses Democrat candidates. Meanwhile, CHIRLA and its action arm, CHIRLA Action Fund, partner on an “Immigrant Political Power Project” that seeks to build a voter base.

According to its website, the Immigrant Political Power Project “targets new citizens, Latinos, and English learners to build a voter base from scratch, with enough power to sway state politics.” The project, staffed by “five immigrant women of color,” utilizes “teams of paid/volunteer canvassers/phone bankers, ranging in status from undocumented to legal permanent residents.” The project spreads the message that “immigrants must participate in EVERY election.”

All the while, CHIRLA received more than two-thirds of its revenue from government grants in a four-year period from June 2021 through June 2025.

Jenny Rae Le Roux, director of the CAL DOGE project established by Republican gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton, cried foul.

“It defies common sense that taxpayers would fund an organization that converts taxpayer funds into a political activist network for California Democrats, for the explicit benefit of [Los Angeles Mayor] Karen Bass and [Democrat governor nominee] Xavier Becerra,” Le Roux, who is also a Republican candidate for Congress in California’s 47th Congressional District, told the Daily Signal in a statement Tuesday.
