Tom Cotton: New York’s Homeless Veterans Ineligible for $15.6K Payments to Illegal Aliens
Breitbart ^ | April 11, 2021 | John Binder

Homeless veterans in New York are not eligible for the $15,600 one-time payments that nearly 200,000 illegal aliens will soon receive, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) notes.

As Breitbart News has reported, Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) and state Democrats have struck a budget deal that includes $2.1 billion in taxpayer funding to provide unemployment benefits and stimulus checks to about 187,000 illegal aliens.

Illegal aliens who will be eligible for the one-time payment could receive up to $15,600, the equivalent of about $300 a week for one year. The aid to illegal aliens is $1.1 billion more in funding than tax credits and grants authorized for New York small businesses in the budget.

Cotton, in a statement posted online, noted the state’s homeless veterans are not eligible for the stimulus benefits:

A June 2020 report conducted by New York state officials revealed in 2019, there were 1,270 homeless veterans in the state with the overwhelming majority living in shelters. More than half of these homeless veterans are in New York City.

The New York payments to illegal aliens is a model for blue states on subsidizing illegal foreign labor that helps businesses widen profit margins by paying off-the-books wages.

With each pawing day I find myself getting melancholy watching old Movies on TCM and old TV Shows on MeTV.

The term “the good old days” has taken on a new meaning since our Republic and the Rule of Law has collapsed before our eyes.

Federal law now means whatever Deep State says it does.

Exactly. There is no rule of law. I hope I get to be on a jury sometime: “Guilty? Nah. The law, you say? What law? I don’t recognize the law any more than you do, counselor.”

It’s astounding how fast it all eroded and how deep the mud pit is.. no one gets embarrassed any more.. there are no limits mow.. except Christians, Jesus, the Bible, and disciplining children...

Between Joe, his son and ‘company’ there is filth...rotten filth.. in my white house

there would have been an uprising 20 yrs ago.. if it was ever brazenly exhibited then like it is here now

The fight is gone in average Americans... it is pitiful how comfort takes such a toll.

It's alienation that's taking the toll... not comfort.

White liberal 'elites' destroyed the black community with welfare and urban renewal- now they're going to destroy our communities - - flooding us with illegals, skyrocketing crime and more bills than we can pay.

It won't be long before 'progressives' build walls so we can't escape... like happens in every commie hellhole.

comfort keeps us from going into a fight.

I use the invasion of Normandy as one example.

The men on the ships knew they probably would not live past going ashore . but they got out of the boats and ran thru water getting ashore past German fire.

they ran over bodies.. some dead .. some dying .. orders were to not stop.. can’t help.. grab guns if can.. as they passed...

how many would do that today.. to win.

More humans living in totalitarian hellholes than living in free countries.

We HAVE BEEN blessed we held off control freak psychopath ‘elites’ for a few hundred years... Lots of people on this planet never had a chance to live in a free society where CITIZEN’S RIGHTS WERE PROTECTED... AND NOT JUST THE ‘RIGHTS’ OF THE ELITES.

We need to be thankful for that...

Biden and his ‘What’s wrong with Kansas’ fools really believe citizens want to trade the majesty of our social inheritance for cheaper health care or 2 square feet of extra room in an apartment.

There’s reasons why democrats have to bribe people with bands and light lunches to come to their rallies. No one likes them. They’re too stupid to see the same scams they pull on us are being pulled on them...

My grandfather died of the 1918 flu age 32. one day he was a healthy farmer..48 hrs later he was dead. It changed many lives after... I am very aware of the dangers.

people die from complications from colds, flu, pneumonia, and other things. If the body is vulnerable, that person can get very sick.

Its never been treated like this one . and after raising a family.. and sickness that goes with winter colds... the seriousness of this one was odd.

It scared the younger folks.. many took it seriously.. every time I had to put a mask on to enter a store.. it was an obeyance and a nod to father government.

my trust in Washington is long gone. the lies never stop. things they still try to sell us.. one lady believed it all because of how many died.
there is nothing fron washington that I believe... They took the one.. the only person who could... would.. fix it all...

why do people out there choose to believe the lies.. it makes me angry at them.. and to voters who won’t see or can’t see.

God grant us favor ... thank you..

My grandmother survived the 1918 pandemic - but was so weakened by the illness she still died young some years later...

We’re challenged by life’s miseries they test our spiritual strengths... no one ever grew from getting a second TV...
