NY Rewards Illegal Aliens with COVID Relief Checks 10 TIMES Amount Given to American Citizens
by Kyle Becker
The State of New York has passed a new budget with major tax increases that will only drive more business from the declining state.
It is also carving out billions to cut one-time checks for illegal immigrants who lost work due to the state’s lockdowns.
The size of the checks? Over ten times that given to Americans in the last round of stimulus sent out by the Biden administration.
The bill includes $2.1 billion fund to provide “one-time payments for undocumented workers who did not qualify for federal stimulus checks or unemployment benefits,†the New York Times reported, “according to budget highlights released by the governor’s office.â€
“New York will now offer one-time payments of up to $15,600 to undocumented immigrants who lost work during the pandemic,†the report continued. “The effort — a $2.1 billion fund in the state budget — is by far the biggest of its kind in the country and a sign of the state’s shift toward policies championed by progressive Democrats.â€

New York Finalizing Plan to Give Illegal Aliens $20,000 Checks
avatar By Madison McQueen April 6, 2021 1 Comment
Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo’s handling of the COVID pandemic has been quite controversial and it appears he’s not done yet. In a ridiculous new move, the state of New York is creating a COVID relief fund that would give illegal aliens and ex-convicts checks totaling more than $20,000 each.
The Excluded Workers Fund would offer direct payments to illegal aliens who are ineligible for federal assistance, and individuals who have been released from incarceration since October 2019 and did not qualify for relief opportunities amid the pandemic.
According to POLITICO, recipients would receive $600 for each week they were unemployed from March 27 through July 31, 2020, and $300 for each week from Aug. 1, 2020 through Sept. 6, 2021.
