Chicago Democratic Mayor Lori Lightfoot has signed an executive order that guarantees all residents, including illegal immigrants, access to the city’s assistance programs during the coronavirus pandemic.

Lightfoot’s executive order Tuesday includes access to new programs specifically designed for COVID-19 economic relief such as housing assistance, online education resources for public school students, and small business loans, regardless of whether the person is in the country legally.

“This order is more than just an official decree, it is a statement of our values as a city and as Americans,” Lightfoot said in a statement. “Since COVID-19 first reached our city’s doorstep, we have been working around the clock to ensure all our residents are secure and supported, including our immigrant and refugee communities, who are among the most vulnerable to the impact of this pandemic.”

Well, since it is FREE money and no one ever expects to pay it back...I guess his reasoning is it is party time.

Fine. Take the money that would have otherwise gone to your city's black residents and give it to illegals.

You better just hope they don't find out about it.

Would be nice if that money could make it to the Illinois State pension fund, at least there the bureacrates could steal it again.

It’s time to completely cut off sanctuary cities from federal tax dollars.

Hey Mayor, they are NOT Americans, they are fraudulently documented foreigners.

Just another manifestation of how utterly STUPID this commie dyke mayor is. That’s what a city under the horrible threat of a pandemic which is killing dozens of residents needs, more people to pay for their care for, who absolutely DO NOT BELONG HERE. This woman is an anal orifice.

Can Chicago print money, like the Fed?

And how is Chicago doing for tax revenues?

Governor Newsom wants illegals to get payments of cash same as citizens getting stimulus checks. Two peas in a pod, him and Mayor Lightfuk.

I will be neither the first nor the last to say it, but before it’s all over, even if only as a gesture of defiance to the globalist overlords, we should round up all these traitors like Lori LightLoafers and meet out some old fashioned justice.

The money to individual citizens is being chanelled through the IRS and won’t be passing through the state governments at all.

I suppose she can give money earmarked for something else to her illegals, but it will have to be something that passes through her office.
