Massachusetts Citizens Argue Unfairness of Illegals in Subsidized Housing

Massachusetts is among the most liberal of blue states, but that attitude may be changing at least in the immigration sub-topic due to the worsening assaults of illegal aliens on the taxpayer dollar during a painful recession.

A 2010 Rasmussen survey showed Bay Staters’ strong disapproval of goodies for lawbreaking foreign moochers: 70 Percent of voters […]

California Governor Salutes Illegal Aliens as Economically Valuable

Gov Jerry Brown is known as a big friend of open borders and amnesty, and he even supported a state DREAM Act during his gubernatorial campaign.

Los Angeles Schools: New Free Food Program Introduced

In the diverse city of Los Angeles, a free breakfast program is being launched for 267 of the school district’s poorest schools.

Illegals Receive Billions in IRS Cash for Kids; Cardinal Mahony Approves

This story is not exactly news but is a helpful reminder that illegal alien kiddies still get their lawbreaking parents over $4 billion yearly in cash payouts taken from citizen taxpayers. (See House Payroll Tax Proposal Cuts Illegal Alien Windfall, also the CIS report Child Tax Credits for Illegal Immigrants.)

In addition, the video report below […]

Remittances to Mexico Are Up 8%

According to the elite liberal media, illegal immigration has “sputtered to a trickle” and therefore the time is ripe for a massive amnesty, in the minds of the ever-hopeful Raza gang. (If illegal immigration were exploding to record levels, that would be time for amnesty also.)

However, it’s interesting to note that remittances to Mexico are […]

House Payroll-tax Proposal Cuts Illegal Alien Windfall

Recent deal-making in DC includes an item that is long overdue — removing the tax credit that allows illegal aliens to claim cash benefits from their children.

Rep. Gallegly Notes Feds Distributing Billions of Dollars to Illegals

It’s not news that illegal aliens receive billions of dollars annually in tax refunds even though they pay no income tax, although when the Chairman of the House Immigration Subcommittee mentions that fact during a contentious hearing, it might be thought newsworthy. You can watch the 3-hour hearing on C-SPAN as I did and see […]

California anti-DREAM Act Referendum Going to the Clipboards

The much despised DREAM Act law which will award millions of dollars in scarce taxpayer funds to illegal alien students in California state colleges will hopefully be overturned in the 2012 election if enough voter signatures can be gathered over the next few months to place it on the ballot.

Assemblyman Tim Donnelly (R-Twin Peaks) has […]

He has researched the government’s anti-poverty efforts and found over 70 separate federal programs spending over $900 billion this year to […]

Your Tax Dollars at Work: Free-to-them Healthcare for Illegal Aliens

Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) got all kinds of grief for yelling, “You lie” at President Obama when he said that Obamacare would not cover illegal aliens during the 2009 State of the Union speech.

As it turns out, Wilson was right. We are so surprised.

Rep. Wilson Claims He Was Right on Illegal Immigrant Coverage When He […]

To The Contrary Examines Immigration

Bonnie Erbe’s PBS show “To the Contrary” usually centers on an all-woman panel balanced between liberals and conservatives taking on a specific topic. This week’s show has no discussion segment but is all documentary style, looking at immigration’s mostly negative effect on the American workforce, healthcare, poverty and natural resources like farmland and water supply.
