Cuomo’s New York: Illegal Aliens to Get $15,600 in Taxpayer-Funded Checks
Nearly 200,000 eligible illegal aliens in New York could receive a one-time payment of $15,600 in taxpayer-funded benefits thanks to a budget deal approved by Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D).
This week, as Breitbart News reported, state Democrats and Cuomo struck a budget deal that shifts $2.1 billion in taxpayer-funded benefits to illegal aliens who lost their jobs during the Chinese coronavirus crisis. The aid to illegal aliens is $1.1 billion more than tax credits and grants authorized for small businesses in the state.
Estimates now suggest about 187,000 illegal aliens are eligible for the benefits and each could receive a one-time payment of $15,600 or about $300 a week for the entire year. (snip through the breakdown)
Despite supporting the budget deal, Cuomo has admitted he is concerned about the potential for fraud when illegal aliens begin applying for the one-time payments.
“Cuomo says the [New York State] Comptroller will examine excluded workers fund before it goes online, as well as [Attorney General] Tish James, for potential fraud vulnerabilities,†Zach Williams with City & State NY reported.
Fraud by people who’ve broken U.S. laws? Providing aid violates multiple sections of US code on illegal aliens, including inducing/enticing and aiding/abetting. But, our two tiered justice system won’t prosecute.
Why are taxes high in New York?
So the government can pay illegal immigrants up to $15,600.
In New York, it pays to break the law. https://t.co/0BMLbxVQMm

You know what? You New Yorkers need to stay there and live under the system you voted for, rather than escaping and bringing your Progressive insanity to other areas. Suck it up.
