Cuomo’s $2.1 Billion Gift to Illegal Aliens and Felons

In single-party New York, a bigwig like Andrew Cuomo can only be taken down by radicals from even further left. Unsurprisingly, that’s who he is pandering to in a desperate attempt to save his skin at the expense of taxpayers:

Cuomo, along with New York State Democrats, is negotiating a $2.1 billion fund where at least 187,000 illegal aliens and 87,000 felons could receive taxpayer-funded unemployment benefits that mirror state and federal benefits.

Other Dems will appreciate the erstwhile Luv Gov taking good care of the party’s base. They may let him ride out the scandal of killing thousands of seniors by forcing their nursing homes to accept Covid patients, and even the never-ending MeToo allegations that have been piling onto him since.

The payouts are extravagantly generous. Why not? It’s taxpayers’ money, not Cuomo’s.

Illegal alien and felon recipients could receive up to $28,600 a year thanks to the taxpayer-funded benefits, according to analysts. Weekly, illegal aliens and felons could receive $500 a week. For those unemployed since March 2020, recipients could receive on average $12,600.

Plenty of American citizens who never broke the law don’t make that much by working.

Recipients, should the taxpayer-funded program be included in the state budget, could also become secure medical coverage paid for by New York’s public health insurance program.

Other American citizens who never broke the law shell out more for health insurance than they do for food.

Many violent criminals are allowed to run free in New York thanks to bail reform, just as illegal aliens run free thanks to sanctuary policy.

Crime pays under the rule of criminals like Andrew Cuomo.

On a tip from Wiggins.
