Tax break for undocumented immigrants pushed by California Democrats

The California state budget could extend a tax break to low-income families of undocumented immigrants.

Assembly Democrats want Gov. Jerry Brown to expand the state’s Earned Income Tax Credit in such a way that people who do not have Social Security numbers can apply for it.

The proposal is meant to help poor Californians recover some of their state income tax. Last year, a household with two children and an adjusted gross income of up to $22,309 would have been eligible for a tax credit. The maximum credit for a family of that size is $2,467, according to the Franchise Tax Board.

The Assembly plan would expand eligibility to people with Individual Taxpayer Identification Numbers. They're tax-processing numbers the IRS uses to collect tax from people who do not have Social Security numbers.

"We believe all working Californians, including immigrants, should be able to afford life's basic needs — food, housing, health care and transportation," said Josh Fryday, president of CalEITC4Me, an organization that raises awareness about the tax credit.

Good. I’m all for it. The more perks illegals can get out of CA the less they’ll venture into other states.

Yep - at least until all the earners have evacuated (purposeful term) the State....

As if the stooges do not know illegals are not currently paying any taxes. Anybody working for cash under the table is not reporting their income
