Almost 200 House Dems vote against deporting people who commit welfare fraud
Rep. Dave Taylor's Deporting Fraudsters Act passes despite Democratic opposition, faces uphill battle in Senate

The House of Representatives narrowly passed legislation Wednesday to crack down on illegal immigrant welfare fraud, despite fierce objections from most Democrats.

Lawmakers voted 231-186 to approve the Deporting Fraudsters Act with 186 Democrats opposing the measure.

The bill, sponsored by Rep. David Taylor, R-Ohio, would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to explicitly define fraud as a deportable offense. Republicans said the legislation is necessary to ensure that noncitizens who steal taxpayer dollars are no longer eligible for immigration relief services or legal protections.

"If you admit to or you’re convicted of fraudulently receiving public benefits, you are out of here on the next plane and can never return," Rep. Tom McClintock, R-Calif., said Wednesday on the House floor.

ALL 200 DEMS would rather see Trump fail than to see America succeed.

Well, you really shouldn't deport your voting base...should you.

Welfare fraud isn't the big issue. Any immigrant in this country that goes on welfare....illegal or legal...needs to be deported.

At one time immigrants needed sponsors and future job before they came. We need to go back to that. I have a close friend that immigrated with her family when she was two. Her Dad worked 3 jobs for years to support his family.

Migrants now come here with the notion that they are 'owed' and few have little intent of assimilating.

Those who are here ILLEGALLY need to be deported. Period.

C'mon, man! You know enough of that money is getting skimmed or siphoned to go a long way toward filling campaign coffers (and pockets).

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
