“Critics say that undocumented workers would have to register with the District to receive the benefit.”
Yes. That caught my eye also. I like the euphemism for illegal aliens. And I like the implication that the city should protect illegal aliens from the law. Might as well complain that nearby security cameras might help to identify criminals.
Come to think of it. In D.C. you might be as likely to be judged a criminal if you wear a MAGA cap as if you as if you loot a store.
If illegal aliens have to register for this program, won't that mean they're no longer "undocumented?" What will they become? "Underdocumented?"
